[@airuniverse10]

Brené, the way you break down such simple concepts amazes me! I can’t help to get emotional about the topics you investigate. Thank you for being real!

[@grandkhadee8473]

I recently stood up for myself when an family friend who had always called me careless ,did it again and I said to her I’m forgetful not careless , and I explained what careless means and she’s never done it again 👏🏻

[@carolynwise3651]

This Episode was good for me to watch, because I live in shame my whole childhood and into some of my adulthood. But getting to know myself, and healing what was dead in me. I love the part when Mrs. Brown talk about Love.

[@pashukeni_]

We all want to be loved, seen, and valued indeed! Brene Brown has changed my life and is changing lives all over the world. And her the Parenting Manifesto is one of the best things I have ever heard. We all need a Brene Brown in our lives = ) .

[@hikeseek9624]

“You share with people who earn the right to hear your story.” -Yes

[@jennifershriver7071]

I want to be on a plane, and have the person next to me say they are a shame researcher! Imagine that conversation. So powerful, so good, so healing. I can't wait!

[@marystermer5983]

So do think you are just vulnerable with”certain” people?

[@marystermer5983]

Do we have to produce!?

[@kari2704]

This is the second time I’ve watched this video and it doesn’t get old. It helps me and heals me. Hope everyone is kinder to themselves.

[@evetteshuk4372]

How can you NOT LOVE this conversation?! I need to replay with pen& paper in hand! Very dense and many ahas for me! I appreciate these souls for their lessons and wisdom. Especially the piece regarding our children!! 🙏

[@babykangaroo8769]

I feel some parts in me is healing while watching this video, I’m truly grateful for seeing this

[@stevieray7203]

My friend who was there no matter what died almost a year ago....i miss her so much because being seen and loved in the midst of your shame is GOLD

[@evetteshuk4372]

Same, I feel you:( My BFF/Soul sister (since age 5) passed 10/2016... Those friends are priceless.

[@mandtrealestatetanyamandtk4003]

I bawled and laugh through the whole thing! I am a painter and furniture artist and somehow I have felt guilty for trying to make this my life. But I have helped so many women make their homes beautiful and it lights me up!! I needed this so much!!!

[@ChicSeraphim]

The best, most amazing lesson from Brene over the years begins at 16:56 where she explains how to be vulnerable, and with whom. It's the people around us that feed our mental health. Choose wisely!!

[@mariajoseibizacoach6946]

Both of you are amazing:) Have been following Brene for years and have read all of her books. Berne your hair looks beautiful and brings out your beauty. Oprah I grew up with you in my teens now I'm in mid age😂 your interviews only get better and better, love how the color purple/Lila looks on you got me started wearing it as well 🌟 thank you to both stars 🌟

[@neriahjay1704]

The way that shame erodes our sense of worth, value, and connections, is why this discussion is so valuable. Before I read this research, I didn't realize why so many of my "other blaming", and various toxic behaviours associated with low self-worth, and shame, were causing so many ruined relationships in my life.

[@eftsoulpath333]

Brene, you are not only funny and Wise, you are beautiful! 💕

[@pennyhare925]

I just ordered the book The Gifts of imperfection i live in a small town of Mississippi, I’m trying to help myself thru listening and reading, there is no therapist locally , so thank you

[@nishasareencoaching9559]

Can’t tell you how much I loved this!

[@DianaIsabel929]

Sunny days are too much expectation - brilliant

[@synolve]

Brene Browns helps us to go deep but she softens the fall with Love and real things we can do to change 💗

[@candacejones3352]

For me, Brene Brown has such a huge impact on my life and why I really listen to her talk about shame and vulnerability is because she makes herself vulnerable by sharing her personal stories and how she navigates through shame and vulnerability. She shares her own experience about arguments or disagreements she has with her husband, children and others. I say to myself when I hear her talk, Wow! If she is struggling through this stuff and gets through to the other side, then I can get to the otherside of the mountain too.

[@mainzashamukale9381]

This has been so inspiring and healing for me. I wish I could have more of it... Thanks Opera and Brene'.

[@madhusharma9949]

Wealth of information shared with brilliance and sensitivity. People have to earn their right to share your story.

[@RecoverySoulfood]

I See this EVERYDAY in the addiction/recovery community! Addiction is a disease that thrives on shame! I’d Love to sit down with both of these women & speak about this topic! Thank you Both!!!!!

[@HappeningDreams]

It is truly such a blessing to have access to such truth, such wisdom, shared with ease to help understanding and digestion. Thank you both. Thank you

[@grandkhadee8473]

Silence and judgement, I suffer so much for nothing, this is so profound , you create your own reality , totally empowering talk

[@nickidaisyreddwoodd5837]

Oprah this is the first time I feel a connection to you. Thank you Oprah for allowing that what Brene said into your mind and heart and thank you Brene for your deep insights and love message for the world.

[@dianaflegal4495]

I love when the two of you get together. Thank you both for your vulnerability and transparency. I am better for you both giving me the language to find my way to inner healing. God bless you both. With great love and appreciation. ❤️

[@neriahjay1704]

For me, so far, one of the greatest take-aways from Brene' Brown's research has been that "I belong to Myself". That I found in "Braving the Wilderness: The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone", and that concept...along with the BRAVING acronym....I feel, will set me onto a path free from toxic shame and to help me find connection and the elusive" whole-hearted living" I have been seeking since I began this journey into myself to explore the swampland of shame I had been living in. I am eternally grateful for this research and efforts to bring light into that swampland.

[@BLACKLOTUSBUTTERFLY7]

This episode is wholeheartedly beautiful, bountiful -- full of so much wisdom. Everyone will find a piece of themselves in these stories, if open and honest.

[@crbaade]

29:00 “what everyone wants is to be seen and heard... to know - do I matter, and does what I say mean anything to you?” -Oprah quoting Brené (But also the biggest lesson my mom tried to teach me)

[@krisward1360]

There is so much greatness here. I am a believer in what you both do and have used some of the techniques, especially "The story I'm telling myself is...." However, I would like to say that there are many great schools and great teachers who are very diligent in modeling and teaching students how to talk to themselves and others that builds the person. Some of the worst talk happens by students saying things about themselves - not teachers shaming students. My heart broke at these comments because many of us work so hard to build students up and teach them a better way and those are not recognized. Thank you for all your hard work.

[@denisemcmullin7449]

Oprah thank you for sharing this. I was raped by 3 men at the age of 5 and I couldn't tell my abusive mother because it would have created another problem and I didn't want to get beat. This was so enlightening for me. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU ! By the power of 3 it is done it is done. And so it is..

[@nothandodlamini3426]

Wow! Praying for you ❤️❤️❤️

[@joannemates6367]

Brene Browns work will change your life!! Cheers, from Country Victoria. Australia. ✌️✌️✌️

[@kathydilorenzo9744]

Shame can be debilitating… It sure happened to me. Love Brene’ and love Oprah

[@joycenonhlanhlavilakati7161]

Thanks Brene for the gift of language. And thanks Oprah for making it possible for some of us to receive this gift from such a great distance. 🙏❤

[@sleephearthealer]

So true about being careful who you share your shame with. Got my heart cut up though I don't talk much at all, they fully judged me rather and it felt more like a punch in the gut.

[@joannemates6367]

[@dreasmom2789]

You and me both. I moved from California to Minnesota and at my age it's kind of hard to meet new friends. I have a view work friends. But their ages are where they're raising their kids and everything and I'm much older than that. and one good friend I guess.

[@dreasmom2789]

This show has been very enlightening. I do have to just agree with the god part. Part is this show is teaching to be good parents and being there for your children. and I understood that to be even if they're not asking for your help that you should be there for your kids. This is the question I have why isn't God there for us without asking. If I get replies I'm sure people are going to say he's always there for you but then why are they saying to ask for him to help.

[@affiagbenyo4625]

I would love for Brene to do a book geared toward kids. I have 2 kids that say they are stupid and worthless. It breaks my heart everytime.

[@EternalSnoie]

How can I live wholeheartedly when my loved ones and the ones around them weaponized “shame”.

[@luvsongsandmusic]

I feel like it's time to wade through the wave of vulnerability to find your real friends my dear, it might get messy, but I believe your end-goal would be so much better than what you have going on. I highly recommend her books if you're up for reading it

Have you watched the movie Get Out? Well, sometimes when we're being brainwashed and drained of our life force, that's what we need to do.

A rainy day takes the pressure off🙏🏾 🤣Very true my sister Oprah very true❤️🌍

[@berniecelee5062]

I smiled when Oprah wished for rainy days ,.... cause that’s me too!! I need those days to give myself permission to do the tasks I have to catch up on and stop being distracted by blue skies. Sometimes, I am so tired.... but the to do list is still long , so we don’t rest our thoughts , bodies to reenergize. I agree with Brené about making time for creativity! Omg ....that’s in my Goals for 2021. I discovered my inner joy again during covid last year.... I started back sewing, making personal cards and created my gratitude board for 2020. I found my coloured pencils, markers, etc ...went hunting down my supplies . It was fun!!!!!! And so liberating and joyful. I am setting up 2021 to do more of those activities. Part of my day is not going to be devoted to work, to kitchen duties, to daily chores, to looking after people .....it will be parceled out for being creative in whatever way I feel like doing. I asked for circuit maker for Christmas....Santa delivered ! So some gifts in 2021 will be personally made , just like they were in 2020. One of a kind . So glad I am watching this show . For A type personalities like me, this show is what we need to watch and learn how to enjoy life again. Thanks for a great show , as always !! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Great episode! Although, I hate to tell you this Brené, but your manifesto and a lot of what you mentioned was already covered very simply by a Mother Theresa quote, " if you want to CHANGE THE WORLD, GO HOME AND LOVE YOUR FAMILY." However, You really give us clear examples on how to do it!👍
