We break down each chapter into bite-size chunks that make comprehension and analysis easier. "Daring Greatly: How the Courage to be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead" by Brene Brown explores the power of vulnerability in cultures of scarcity. Originally inspired by Teddy Roosevelt's speech, "The Man in the Arena," "Daring Greatly" was published in 2012 after a decade of research on the connection between vulnerability and shame. Brown's research suggests that cultures of scarcity make vulnerability difficult. She further suggests that the amount a person protects oneself from vulnerability measures his or her fear and disconnection; the implication being that higher levels negatively affect the health and stability of relationships. Although those who don't believe in the importance of vulnerability may have a difficult time embracing Brown's beliefs, "Daring Greatly" is a thought-provoking read that will have readers digging deep to find answers to questions they didn't know they had. We wrap up with a "Putting it Together" section that puts the book into the context of today's society, giving you the tools you need to dare greatly on your own.
