Braving the Wilderness: The quest for true belonging and the courage to stand alone by Brené Brown

about the book

True belonging doesn't require us to change who we are. It requires us to be who are.

Brené Brown has sparked a global conversation about the experiences that bring meaning to our lives – experiences of courage, vulnerability, love, belonging, shame and empathy. In Braving the Wilderness, Brown redefines our understanding of what it means to truly belong in an age of increased polarisation shaped by fear and divisive ideological and political rhetoric.

With her trademark mix of research, storytelling and honesty, Brown sets out a clear roadmap based on the four practices of true belonging that challenge how we think about ourselves, show up with one another, and find our way back to courage and connection.

A timely and important new book that challenges everything we think we know about cultivating true belonging in our communities, organisations and culture.
