Men, Women & Worthiness CD by Brene Brown

What does it take to be secure in our sense of belonging and self-worth? We may hustle to attain this security through achievements, meeting expectations, or repeating affirmations to ourselves-but Dr. Bren� Brown's research has shown there is ultimately one obstacle to our sense of worthiness. �Shame is the barrier,� she teaches, �and building shame resilience is how we overcome it.� With Men, Women, and Worthiness, Dr. Brown draws upon more than twelve years of investigation to reveal how we can disarm the influence of shame to cultivate a life of greater courage, joy, and love. In this rich and heartfelt examination of this pivotal element of happiness, she invites you to explore: � The differences and similarities between the experience of shame for men and women � Guilt vs. shame-why one is a useful force for growth, while the other keeps us small � The four elements of shame resilience-identifying our triggers, practicing critical awareness, sharing our story, and speaking honestly about shame � Empathy as the primary antidote to shame �Whether you are a man, woman, or child, every one of us has the irreducible need for love and belonging,� Dr. Brown teaches. �A sense of self-worth, unhindered by the inner voices of shame, allows us to meet that need.� With the warmth, candor, and humor that has made her a celebrated speaker, Bren� Brown offers a road map for navigating the emotions that hold us back-so we can cultivate a life of authenticity and connection.
