Start Publishing Notes' Summary, Analysis, and Review of Bren Brown's Braving the Wilderness: The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone includes a summary of the book, a review, analysis & key takeaways, and a detailed "About the Author" section. PREVIEW: In Braving the Wilderness, researcher and storyteller Brene Brown teaches the masses how to live more wholeheartedly and courageously. In this timely book, she shares personal anecdotes of her own journey, blended with her own and a plethora of others' research. She applies the metaphor of the world as the wilderness that America has largely disengaged with, or has chosen to engage negatively (Facebook fights, anyone?). Brown revisits and builds on her previous work with the "wholehearted"-people who feel a deep sense of "true" belonging and contentment with themselves and their lives. From this research, she enumerates the practices these individual share as the four elements of true belonging, paradoxical practices that each garner their own chapter: 1.People are Hard to Hate Close Up. Move In. 2.Speak Truth to Bullshit. Be Civil. 3.Hold Hands. With Strangers. 4.Strong Back. Soft Front. Wild Heart. Using the acronym BRAVING that she first shared in her 2015 book Rising Strong, she then illustrates the why and how of these practices.
