Brené Brown: The Power of Vulnerability

TEDxHouston · June 2010 · 21 minutes
 

Brené Brown studies human connection – our ability to empathize, belong, love. In this poignant, funny talk – one of the most-watched of the entire TED talk collection – she shares a deep insight from her scientific research, one that sent her on a personal quest to know herself as well as to understand humanity.

“Vulnerability is the core of shame and fear and our struggle for worthiness. But it appears that it’s also the birthplace of joy, belonging, love, innovation, creativity and change.” [Text Source: TED]

Vulnerability is our most accurate measurement of courage.
— BRENÉ BROWN
