I think it's overly wordy (get to the point already), but there are some true nuggets that can be gleaned from Brown's take on true belonging, which stems from being brave for yourself, namely the four practices on how to achieve it. I especially liked number one: People are hard to hate close up. Move in. These basic principles make a quick read, but you'll have to slog through or scim the first few chapters to get there.

I own another Brene Brown, but haven't read it yet, so this is my first one. I find her to be very real and able to be non-partisan and speak to just about everyone (though I'm certainly not everyone). I will certainly be using the BRAVING acronym in my life in the future.
