Brené Brown’s twenty-minute TED talk, “The Power of Vulnerability,” is one of the most watched TED talks of all time with more than forty million views. In this audiobook (not available as a book), she explores the idea more fully in a series of six one-hour talks. Brown explains how her research taught her the techniques we can all use to deepen and enrich the ways we live our lives and love other people. The goal, she says, is to live “whole-heartedly” and the key is to increase our capacity for vulnerability by breaking through all the barriers we put up against it. She keeps her live audience entertained and engaged with her wisdom about the struggles we all face, her understanding of what is essential, and her funny, personal stories.
This audiobook encapsulates key takeaways found in the original book. We’ve also provided an in-depth analysis as well as removing any fluff to save you hours of your time. If you’ve read the original, then this audio summary will help you solidify the most important lessons.
