I made a mistake?” How many of you would be willing to say that? Guilt: I’m sorry. Brenes TED talk, The Power of Vulnerability, is one of the top five most viewed TED talks in the world with over 45. Shame is “I am bad.” Guilt is “I did something bad.” How many of you, if you did something that was hurtful to me, would be willing to say, “I’m sorry. Shame is a focus on self, guilt is a focus on behavior. I think the main point of her two TED talks is to embrace our vulnerabilities and expose them to others so we can live a more meaningful life. In this TED talk, a follow-on to her one on vulnerability, she engagingly brings us into the “unspoken epidemic” of shame and explores what happens when people confront their shame head-on. It’s the courage of being open despiteknowing it might hurt us. Vulnerability is the courage of putting ourselves out there. Being vulnerable then means the opposite: engaging fully and openly with theworld around us.
She’s a researcher-storyteller and author of Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead, a book that argues we should embrace vulnerability and imperfection, to live wholeheartedly, and engage in our lives. Brene Brown says that the more we protect ourselves from vulnerability, the more we grow fearfuland disconnected. In a poignant, funny talk, she shares a deep insight from her research.
Brené Brown studies vulnerability, courage, authenticity, and shame. Bren Brown studies human connection - our ability to empathize, belong, love.
