This didn’t work with my narcissistic husband.

This is the best video I've seen in a long time and needed it years ago. Thank you

What about having boundaries that you have not outlined to the other person, such as Thou shalt not tell me I'm going to hell, and thou shalt not slander my daughter? Can we uphold boundaries such as these without first outlining them to the other person? Surely there are far too many things to have to spell them all out to the other person in order to have a relationship with us.

Sad how these a.l. channels are replacing actual creators

Thoughtful....inspiring...be well

I have absolutely 0 friends right now, my choice. I chose this entire year of 2024 after moving to another state to go into a place of solitude and receive complete healing and gain a deeper relationship with the Lord. I absolutely love the peace that I have right now.

Thank you❤❤❤

Ty for this.. it was exactly what I needed to hear today. Silence is my peace . and this validates my choices. Ty #Brenebrown for your wisdom it means alot to know its my right to take my silence and embrace it and not feel guilty for it .

Whatever about ending relationships of any type, I think it’s horrible to drop people without telling them you are ending the relationship and with no explanation. I also hate that you are equating ending the relationship with ghosting and using them interchangeably. I agree with what you’re saying about not staying in relationships you shouldn’t be in, and it being irrelevant accepts your goodbye or not. Why the need to hurt people extra by not informing them this is even happening? Having them second guessing whether you’re not replying because you’ve ghosted or you’re just busy, creating and increasing anxiety in others unnecessarily and then having them have to guess why you’ve ended the relationship out of nowhere because you haven’t given them any info. There are people bringing this shit up in therapy all the time. How are you encouraging making more people suffer?

This is exactly the situation with an old "friend" i have been struggling with for years ~ Thanks for the insight.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom here. I loved the video. 💯❤

This is incredible! Thank you for the words to describe things and to help empower us to live our best lives while being kind!

I have been by myself for a year now . Yes I am in a rrelasionship but I don' t let it control are define me. I am trying to get over the fact that I don't need validation from it are even to be told that the person loves me . I am trying to take a step back and find myself yes I still love the person but I am allowing this to define who I am .I am not the person I am with. My goal is to rely more on myself and my own needs and learning myself my likes and dislikes dose that make sense. I am trying not to be sad are lonely cause I don't have friends but I feel like a failure and my partner dose not seem to understand this . Why I feel lonely . I am trying that is all that matters I have done so much . Meditation , Journall, and my phone time ect. I am sorry for the crappy post I know it isn't perfect but I wanted to write something .

Hope it helps to deal wirh my wife

Sometimes I myself exhibit toxic behavior. I become aware of what is happening, then beat myself up, creating more pain & inner turmoil. It is a cycle I find hard to break. I also feel my lack of self confidence allows toxic people to drain my energy. Either I set rock hard boundaries, which cause separation, or I distance myself and suffer from lack of having any close relationships. I am 70 and find it is hard to rid myself of old long standing (toxic) relationships to make energy to cultivate new healthy ones, although I have tried over the past two decades! Letting go is hard to do!

Yes, this is true. When kindness is motivated by making others happy because we may have felt unloved and unworthy of love, as children. When I finally found ways to heal my childhood traumas and feelings that I was not good enough, I now have boundaries and my body tells me what I need to do. THe work of Bessel van der Kolk and others, has greatly helped me to find the goodness in my own self, without having to be a people-pleaser. Now, I can help others (I volunteer in my community, in different ways) and when I do so, I know that I do it to help others, and not to do this to make myself feel better.

Always appreciate commenters giving heads up when it’s AI not the actual person

Ai not brene brown

This resonates in so many ways!

i blamed THE LONELY GOD AND lonely Jesus so f em

This is pretty dull

really nice combination of visuals and words. thank you. I truly needed to hear those words at this moment of my life.

Answer at the 11 minute mark. I haven’t heard back from you and I just wanted to check in. If now isn’t a good time I completely understand but I’d appreciate hearing from you when you’re able.

Yeah, but you don't want to be his psychologist either. He might trust you to be vulnerable but it doesn't mean you're the one he'll pick. He wants to be a bright shiny penny to someone else.

I truly believe this does apply to men, but it also applies to women. Especially women who have been categorized as having a masculine energy about them.

thank you for saving me x

I see speech amazing and ethically given me forward direction dares and courage obviously listening me

Yep, I refuse to listen to these AI videos.

Omg this is AI generated using the voice of brene Brown

Great video......Ive just turned 60. Being a Grandad, rocks my World. Everytime I see my Son and Grandchildren, I Often find myself crying with Joy. Two and a half years ago.....my Divorce caused So much pain! Now I shower my Love, with my priceless family. Its beyond Words......Infinate LOVE!!!

Disconnection is the bridge between hot and cold, the exact tixic s* that makes me detach from amyone. Normal people do not play such games, and make the other wonder.

People don't seem to get that this isn't Brene Brown but AI. The fact that you are able to use a person's likeness in this way to falsely propagate ideas under their namesake and likeness is disgusting.

I love your work but i dont know about this one. Some people may see it as a defense of the silence treatment. If you can't talk things through in an adult way, what 's the point?

Ha! Listen to this woman if you want to have a worse relationship or want to be single. He's a person, not a damn Pomeranian.

Thank you Brene Brown for your insight on the import of true intentions. 🙏♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😎

This AI has rubbish command of the English language.

Fake AI generated videos

Stop being nice to women. Treat them like fellow men. If they can't stand the pace push them aside and move on. Stop apologising for being strong and determined to succeed. Capitulating to women is stunting your progress. Be a man, function as you were designed to function.

OMG A teacher is Speaking and Gives Truth's. Many truths... She gives so much critical information so freely.... Is she visiting from another star system? So many answers to those questions we all have

Yes! Former people pleaser here! No, more!🤩😍💪💪

Wise and intelligent advice 💓 I have successfully done this several times in the past, but now I have new challenges and yet to decide what to do, hearing this feels like connecting with this wise mindset again 💜

AI very annoying

This is great for listening to every morning.

😊

Thank you.

What does it mean by this video being significantly altered and edited digitally? Is this AI? Like a sort of “what would Brene Brown say about this topic?” Vs. “Brene Brown actually said this.”

I think I needed to hear this, and I did. Thank you.

Absolutely beautifully said and explained, especially for those women who have been groomed to believe that when a woman chooses herself, she is selfish and should be shamed. Your speech, Brene, helps and guides those women to their own integrity and to live from it with self-respect. Love this! Your books and videos are very helpful. I highly recommend people read then and watch your work. Thank you.
