362) The gifts of imperfection: let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are
Author
Description
Brene Brown engages readers minds, hearts, and spirits as she explores how they can cultivate the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think, 'No matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough,' and to go to bed at night thinking, 'Yes, I am sometimes afraid, but I am also brave. And, yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable, but that doesn't change the truth that I am worthy of love and belonging.'
