Abstract
"Researcher, thought leader, and New York Times bestselling author Brené Brown offers a liberating study on the importance of our imperfections?both to our relationships and to our own sense of self
"The quest for perfection is exhausting and unrelenting. There is a constant barrage of social expectations that teach us that being imperfect is synonymous with being inadequate. Everywhere we turn, there are messages that tell us who, what and how we?re supposed to be. So, we learn to hide our struggles and protect ourselves from shame, judgment, criticism and blame by seeking safety in pretending and perfection"--from the Publisher.
