Braving the Wilderness by Brené Brown

The name dropping became too much in this one. I love her research and the ideas she presents are great - but none of the ideas actually contained in here are her own ideas. She lacks cultural development in what she speaks about and her approach is easy if you’re a socio-economically privileged white person. For many people, who are fighting bigger daily battles against systems that oppress them, what she offers is simply not practical.
There’s another layer that she never seems to go to and it’s all very navel-gazing of the issues that impact our divided communities.
Cute but deeply lacking.
