BRAVING THE WILDERNESS The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone

It's hard to imagine a Brené Brown audiobook narrated by anyone other than Brené Brown. While her performance isn't perfect or polished, it's authentic--a strength that is no more clearly demonstrated than in a passage that includes her singing. And therein lies the power of her performance, especially when combined with the subject matter. In her latest work, Brown explores the nature of belonging. The discussion is built on earlier and continued research on shame, vulnerability, resilience, and courage. Her narration is driven by the desire to communicate and enlighten, so she makes her points emphatically and uses pauses to give listeners moments to consider what she's said. The result is a timely and thoughtful listen during times of division--within individuals and society. A.S. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2017]
