I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn't) by Brené Brown Book Summary

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.

Brené Brown, PhD, LMSW, is the leading authority on the power of vulnerability, and has inspired thousands through her top-selling books Daring Greatly, Rising Strong, and The Gifts of Imperfection, her wildly popular TEDx talks, and a PBS special. Based on seven years of her ground-breaking research and hundreds of interviews, I Thought It Was Just Me shines a long-overdue light on an important truth: Our imperfections are what connect us to each other and to our humanity. Our vulnerabilities are not weaknesses; they are powerful reminders to keep our hearts and minds open to the reality that we’re all in this together.

Brown writes, “We need our lives back. It’s time to reclaim the gifts of imperfection—the courage to be real, the compassion we need to love ourselves and others, and the connection that gives true purpose and meaning to life. These are the gifts that bring love, laughter, gratitude, empathy and joy into our lives.”

AMAZING. Truly an amazing book. Tells us all about our feeling that we may not have even known about. A MUST read book for anyone.

It’s Brené, enough said. 🤍. Even though I am not a mom or female; I found this very insightful for my own life. Thank you Brene.

Highly recommended. This book offers great tools on building shame resilliance and how to determine if we are in the presence of a shaming event or situation. I think that once you can determine you are feeling shame, there is a higher chance you can go through and not feel bad about it.

Great book! Lots of important life messages.. I got this book after I heard her TED talk, which is absolutely amazing. I wanted to learn more about what she has to say so got the book and read it. It is filled with examples, stories, and also theories that are very easy to digest. Everybody, esp parents, teachers and coaches should read this book.

I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn't). Words fail me to describe the enormity of the impact that this book has on me. A must read for women and men.

Excellent. Ironically, this is where I write "you should read this book."

Life Changing. I read this very slowly, every section led me to reflect on my own experiences, to consider changes in how I interact with the people in my life. The complexity of the shame web in my life is overwhelming. My longing for connection but my shame and fear of all I must expose if I am going to be authentic, I have a lot of work to do to develop my shame resilience. I feel more hope for my future, more powerful, as if the lights have turned on showing me that what I thought were monsters were merely shadows.

Amazing book! ❤️. Love brene's books - especially the first two
