  • The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed To Be and Embrace Who You Are

    Brené Brown is a member of the research faculty at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work, where she studies how shame affects the way people live, love, parent, work, and build relationships. She has published countless books that I encourage everyone to take a dive through her significant words. I guaranteed you will walk away discovering something about yourself and understanding others in another way that you never knew you could before. The Gifts of Imperfection was one of the first books that I read by Brené Brown. Her meaningful messages and researched information resonates to this day. One of my favorite quotes from this book is:

    “Only when we are brave enough to explore our darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”

    It is in our deepest struggle that we discover our power and our strength.
