You are a remarkable young person. To have the self awareness at such a young age and to be making steps to overcome your issues is so huge. I commend you, am proud of you, and wish you the best. You will go far in life! Btw, today I learned (in a trauma informed training) that bearing witness, listening to others and helping them by telling your story, is the best way to heal yourself. It certainly has helped me. Good luck!

When I was in High School, I will never forget sitting across from the Advisor who said to me, "You are not college material." She was College Educated, and my 16 year old self thought, well, she should know....and for most of my life I believed that I just would never be SMART ENOUGH. Talk about how SHAME affects us for a lifetime!

Lori Taylor-Schulte best comment Mr Hernandez was his name and I was 17 yrs old. I'm not excusing, blaming, justifying. I'm just saying I understand. The only thing I'm ashamed of is dropping out of 10th grade. I'm not ashamed bcz I don't lie,cheat,steal and the worst sin, pride. I'm not proud of sin, I'm forgiven of sin, and that is the difference. God bless and thank you for commenting.

[@sutton22680]

Lori Taylor-Schulte this happened to my mother. She told me this story and I can honestly say that I have seen it flare up many times over the course of her life. She’s almost 60 and still tells this story and fights how smart and resourceful she actually is.

[@sandrarowe7510]

Lori, as a former 19-year high school teacher, 6-year high school counselor, and now a private practice mental health counselor, please know how sorry I am that an educator said "You are not college material" to you. IMO, that was HER mistake--her ignorance, her judgment, and her shame--not yours. I know personally and professionally how such trauma in our formative years can affect us a lifetime: but it is NEVER too late to process that trauma, to realize it is not true, and to chose a different path. Best wishes to you!

Dear Brene', I realized some years ago, as a teacher for 48 yrs. of people, their animals and animals in general , that the things that we teach in life, especially the foundations of the learning, are the things we need to learn ourselves. Opening up to our students as our master teachers without victimizing ourselves to the process, exposes our own underbelly and requires huge amounts of courage, convictions, strength and insights. I love your talks. Thank you!

[@salsabilahmedshrestho960]

"The broken hearted are the bravest among us because they had the courage to love."

[@chriscunningham8807]

Opening your heart and exposing yourself to rejection, hurt and humiliation is one of the most courageous and beautiful acts imaginable. Losing the object of your love is painful and can feel like a limb or part of yourself has been amputated as the sense of we shifts back to sad and lonely me.

[@annateves8944]

I would add that the broken hearted don't stay broken. They learn faster than others thats all.

Such an exciting time and the perfect audience to engage with Brene's message. I am heartbroken there are over 82,000 views with only 1000 likes... My days are spend in K12 Education & we SO need to receive this message and adhere to change. When I met with my HS Guidance office I too had the counselor tell me, "I was NOT college material, my parents were not of, THAT mindset." What a stifling thing to say to a adolescent who presents with the courage to ask how to improve her world."

I used to think that not having good armor was my biggest flaw, and it has been a defining force in my life, but Brené helped me see it not just as something beautiful but essential as well. She took the shame out of that for me. And that actually helped me become stronger and perhaps, even more resilient. Some people have their spiritual teachers, like Oprah and Brené for example have Maya Angelou as their teacher, some Mother Teresa, some Dalai Lama. Brené is my teacher. I just love her and am so grateful for everything she does

[@VirtualTeachingPro]

[@miriamcjackson706]

I am crying I am so moved by the timing and clarity of this.message. As the realizations settle in, my wounded inner self sits up, unrounds her shoulders, and takes a breath. This has a palpable visceral effect. Because shame is pain. I am grateful for this teaching and your courage and dedication Dr. Brene Brown in bringing this subject to light for the sake of all of us and this up and coming generation.

The action of learning is a risk, the ultimate vulnerability. As educators, it’s important to remember how vulnerable learners are. We have to create a climate where students are safe to be vulnerable, take risks, to make and learn from mistakes; this is where real grown can happen. Thank you Brené!

"Shame cannot survive being spoken because shame requires you to believe you're alone in order for it to maintain it's power." ~Brene Brown

[@invii2049]

Actually, I would add: 1. (in generally speaking) the 'feel of shame' requires 'humans' in your life... in absence of 'them' there is no much of a trigger to the negative sense of 'self'; 2. separating/ distancing from 'humans' (aka 'alone') is often can be therapeutic (as being vulnerable you get all these mixed messages, pushes, and vibes from 'others', apart from the most important - getting your own ones!) ... however, it is sense of 'loneliness' triggers self-doubts, search for personal/ personality defects, self-blame, etc. 3. "being spoken" should be to some 'human(s)' ... talking to something, animals or yourself is more like the 'placebo effect'. Regards

[@BelleFlower15]

When she talked about people having an experience with a teacher that gave them self worth, I thought of Miss Hoback, an administrator at my school. When I started middle school and got my first demerit, I had a total breakdown. She had to take me out of class and into her office and as I sat there crying, she gently explained to me that a demerit didn't mean I was a bad person. I had just done a bad thing. I'm crying as I write this because it still affects me to this day. God bless that woman.

Hello. Marta

[@emilycasillas9335]

Most recently I have identified that this viedo was helpful. Seeing the amount of self-worth-awareness in the concepts placed of Joy, Shame, Silence, Secrecy, and Judgement is where I can relate to. No matter how much empathy, I have shown - that concept is still deep from high levels of depression, social isolation - embarrassment and name calling or put downs. I did not like to agree with my recent correlation of the type of material that is affecting me (indirectly) but I will assume that everybody, everyone has the LOWS in life. Humanity. I am no teacher, but enjoyed to place myself in this pep talk. Thanks for sharing. It was informative. Appreciate the information shared. Thank You, Ms.Emily!

Hello. Lonjemaries

[@chriscunningham8807]

Courage is the willingness to enter the arena despite knowing you will lose. Speak your truth despite being ignored, villified or attacked by a group. Attempt something new and uncomfortable despite the risk of humiliation, failure or criticism. Above all, courage is being open, honest and vulnerable, and putting yourself out there by sending off a manuscript or asking someone on a date despite the risk of rejection after having exposed your heart and soul and the core of who you are.
