What a beautiful, friendly smile Brene has.
One of my favorite quotes:
"There are songs we need to hear; there are stories that need to be heard; there is work that needs to be seen; there are ideas that need to be implemented.”-Brene
Great quote by Thich Naht Hahn and paraphrased by Brené regarding the “sole purpose of our existence here is to get over the illusion of our separateness”
I love the way Jonathan interviews. His questions and conversational exchanges are intelligent and pertinent and he allows the interviewee space and time to respond. He knows where the focus should be. BIG FAN OF BRENE BROWN BTW.
"You are responsible for the energy you bring into the world" - yes!
Ffyyytt. Gggg
I am about to turn 46 (like you both!) I have just begun to enter my creativity and vulnerability. I am so grateful to have found Brene at this time in my life, It makes me go out, do the hard stuff, not beat myself up (as much) but even more - to do it again! Thank you
This is my first time listening to either one of you. What a wonderful exchange! I'm one who definitely lived my life from the bleachers. But now that I'm retired, and no longer "beholding" to anyone, I want to open those doors in my psyche that have remained closed and unexplored. In the final chapter of life, you look back and ask yourself "What can I take with me when my expiration date arrives? - What will survive the transition to the next dimension?" It has to be your vibration, like a tuning fork, that hums to sum total of your life's experience. So as a supremely risk-averse person, you've given me the courage and inspiration to step into the arena, and adopt the mission of making the 3rdAct of Life better for enyone who wants to find personal growth, fulfillment and gratitude for the gift that was bestowed on us.
I fell in love with Brene after watching her TED talk and watching this makes me love her even more! Thank you Brene for pushing back against your peers to make your work accessible to the average person and for having the courage to put your work out there. America is drowning in its obsession with perfection, having more/better 'stuff' than our neighbors and only discussing polite topics. I think your work is essential to America growing up and becoming a better, happier society.
Criticism can make us weak or strong. The difference is in how we handle our mind. To the clear mind all criticism points us to the truth. Unfair and mean-spirited put-downs can inspire us and show us clearly how not to be. What hurts is the part in us that has yet to grow, and these voices help us to find it. They ARE the arena. We can love it all. That is Self-love; nothing is excluded.
"is this is the work so powerful that . ..it's the work I can't not do, and it must get out" -Jonathan Fields (12:42). . . "a CEO, and she or he..." (23:50) - thank you Jonathan Fields for demonstrating your support of women through conscious speech choices! loved this interview; thank you both so much for 'showing up' and 'daring greatly'!
Brene Brown- you are a light. If you remember any comment...I hope that you will never forget that.
You are both inspirational. I live on the sidelines, I live in fear. I am a spectator. I've tried for so many years to learn self-compassion, self-love, to let go of expectations, to just live in the moment and stop judging, stop criticizing, stop complaining and slowly work my way to gratitude, opening my heart to invest in relationships as you say "wholeheartedly". It's scary, it's the great unknown, it's the greatest pain when I fail, but it's also the greatest source of joy when it works.
So seeing you speak of being vulnerable and trying and knowing that failure is a possibility is inspirational. I'm not putting you on a pedestal, you're human and imperfect, but you've accepted that. I need to accept that, and let go of expectations.
Thank you so much for putting your work out there, for daring, for risking because it benefits so many of us.
So I will add you and this interview to my daily gratitude practice, one more blessing in my life.
Namaste
Wow I see myself so much in what she said at 34:00. About when other people take chances to live a vulnerable life and then you want to see them fail because it's uncomfortable for you. Such a wakeup call. I want to start living a more courageous and vulnerable life!
Thank you for being real and transparent personally and for having guests on whose experiences and the sharing of them, enrich my life.
I am in love with this interview. So glad she talked about "grounded theory" and I can't wait to look into this more. Also, so happy that Brown made what she learned accessible instead of letting the research set on the intelligentsia shelf.
This was so real- a meeting of 2 great minds and wholehearted people. Thank you for this magical and inspiring conversation.
Singing with Brene' and a thousand other people at World Domination Summit 2012 was incredible. I am so grateful for her, her work, her courage. Thanks, Jonathan for a great interview.
Thank you Brene for all your work. I just bought your book Braving the Wilderness, and so much and it resonates with me and it's stuff that I believe and wanted to write about years and years and years ago, I'm 54 now but I didn't because nobody was doing it. LOL. And you are somebody who's helping me get out of my slump of being frozen. My husband died 4 years ago, I have a chronic autoimmune disorder, and I just got put on long-term disability at work, because they weren't willing to accommodate me. And I just feel like a complete loser failure. I'm working on selling my home because I don't want to live here anymore I haven't for a while but I tried to make it be something I wanted when it really wasn't cuz, I should again, LOL. I don't know why I just wrote all that I had a point, but I forgot it. Just thank you for all you do you're a very helpful.
The presenter is amazing.He is knowledgable.I love his genuine idea and Brene Brown appreciated this.
Absolutely wonderful conversation, that flow! THAT FLOW! IT GLOWS THROUGH THE WHOLE THING!
Brene Brown is just brilliant, and this is one of my favorite interviews with her! She's so relaxed and just so engaging in the conversation. She's really made me see that vulnerability and shame have held me back from being my daring self...but no more!

One quote that I have heard and is good is: "Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us."
That is Marianne Williamson who said that! She's another amazing Texan. Check her out
Catherine Owen no it’s from Nelson Mandela!
@@sexykoreanchic123 For almost 25 years, Williamson's quote has been consistently misattributed to Nelson Mandela. “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,” Williamson writes in A Return to Love. “Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure
@@sarahdoe8512 thanks for educating me on this, I didn’t even know and this is my favorite quote of all time! I just looked it up and am looking into Williamson’s “return to love.” Thank you again for the information
I actually love her. Her point on accessible research ... this is the exact thing that puts me off being a researcher. "If people understand your work, it means you're not very smart." It stops the conversation and the debate over any pieces of research. I hope journal communities take note of this.
This was so powerful and encouraging for me as a young Social Worker. Loved it.
So nice, I loved listening in, tears rolling down my face
The energy between these two is giving me goose bumps...great minds that dare to be limitless. I love this
That quote from Oprah "You are responsible for the energy yo bring into this room" it's from an amazing neuroscientist who gave one of the top 10 TED talks of all time called: "A stroke of insight"
I love how digesting what and how Brene's teaching allow me to feel vulnerable to feel. I am truly embracing a new life. thank you so much for assisting me to open my eyes.
"When we fail, we are daring greatly"
okay, straight up "halleluia moment" at 19:15-22. Oh my goodness, that was powerful!
oh yes for me too!
I have been listening to all of the interviews back to 2014. They are absolutely amazing. I love listening to Jonathan and all of his guests; they are thought provoking, inspirational and all other good things. I am so grateful. Thank you.
Brene Brown, please keep talking so we can hear!❤️
Love love love this lady. She emanates love and light.
I've been on the fence about whether or not I want to go for my Ph.D. There has always been this thing about journals and articles being locked away for some 'elite' group that doesn't bode well for me. The more I read these journals, the more I see the same mundane, unmoving data written over and over and over again. Brene summed up my thoughts in such a way (10:07-12:15) that I'm very clear I will not be pursuing my Ph.D. I am the seeker of knowledge on my own terms and I have the ability to share my research with anyone, anytime. Thank you, internet. Thank you, Brene!
Thanks Brene for sharing her work and philosphy. As a beginner dancer, I realize I can't be in the dance if I am afraid of losing my footing and look stupid. I am working on overcoming my feeling of vulnerability so I can get more out of the dance that I enjoy.
Brene' not only discuses vulnerability, she practices by practicing her profession according to her values and principals. She is an amazing individual and gift to humanity!!
Wow... There were some hard-hitting home truths in this interview. Home truths that I needed to hear. I hereby refuse to be the person who reaches her deathbed, wondering what would have happened had I shown up.
Thank you so much Jonathan and Brené. Not many things have me on the edge of my seat and bring tears to my eyes, but this did it.
thanks Jonathan and Brene.
I am inspired by your courage and humanity. I too, don’t want to get to the end of my life, and not to have dared. I’ve left it later than you- turned 60 today- leaving a secure job earlier this year. I loved hearing Jonathan, about your morning ritual. Mornings can be tricky for me too - it is so affirming that you remind me of what is good, and why I'm doing it. I'm also gathering my tribe around me, for support and to keep me true. Thank you.
You two are amazing
PTL Saints and friends, B.B.... I appreciate you and what portion of your work I have been exposed to. Thank you for sharing💯.
Great interview.
From a quantitative researcher: "If you can measure it it's probably not that important." Love it!
Jonathan & Brene- such beautiful people. I feel so uplifted & encouraged after watching this. I was at WDS2012, and though I didn't get to meet either of you, I feel so honored to have shared space with you & be a part of that conference with you. Thanks for doing this interview, Jonathan!
To those who clicked the don't like button.. You're cowards. Brene Brown, you are the BEST!
I’m a social worker and I’ve been binging Brene Brown so much lately. Vulnerability and daring are so key to this work and its something I’ve been struggling with lately. I am so grateful for her vulnerability and willingness to share this with the broader world.
@12:36- 15:30 what a great point! Thank you Jonathan.
Wow this whole interview is incredibly powerful and beautiful and enlightening ❤️❤️❤️
Extremely insightful, thought-provoking and discussion-worthy! I can and will replay this again and again. Confirms and explains many things in my own experiences. Thank you, Brene and Jonathan. This was a wonderful introduction to you both.
This was truly powerful. This hit the bullseye like nothing ever before. I sincerely thank you for this interview and for all the work you do Jonathan Fields. I know I'll be sharing and discussing this with others.
I cannot tell you how impressed and excited I was about this interview. So many different topics covered and so much sense spoken. I have to confess I was blown away! I am an academic who took early retirement to spend more time working in the real world (addiction recovery field) and I related to (and have experienced) so much of what was said. The last ten minutes was brilliant. Thank you both. You are inspirational!
"They don't trust in the process that brought them success." That is so powerful and applicable to so many things, from business to relationships. I've felt that way so many times, but I haven't heard it articulated so clearly before. Thank you so much for this interview.
Great interview - honest , authentic and Jonathon has such a great interview style... feels like a chat over a glass of red. Love it !
The fact that they are both sitting the way they are… This is quite unique and really adds to my enjoyment of the interview. Weird, but true (for me). I am more likely to listen to what they have to say somehow…
Thank you Brene and Jonathan for embracing your own vulnerability, and through that embracing, helping others and me to find the strength to do the same. You two are the very ones that you talk about in the interview, that own the courage to put yourselves out there, risking ridicule and various other forms of condemnation, and through doing so, provide a source of inspiration and encouragement for me and the rest of us. Thank You, yours truly!
AWESOME. Thank you so much on so many levels
Amazing, every time I hear her speak it renews everything I have been working towards in myself.
Same here
I love this! Please never stop your work! The two of us, you guys make the world a better place and give me the feeling that I can do that to!
You're so inspiring and uplifting! Thank you so much! x
You can often tell from someone's face that they're genuine and authentic and Brene is definitely that!
You both hit an area for me. I really love dance and I would love to make a difference. Thank you for helping me to make a change in how I perform my business.
You’re damn right that “you are responsible for the energy you put into this world” - you hit the nail on the head with that statement, go Brene! I’m buying all of your books. Love your research and your perspective on life.
Thank you for sharing. You both are making the world a better place!
Best thing I've ever watched on RUclips by far, riveted to every word. 2 very wise souls. I feel like they are family, since everything they talked about hit the bullseye for me right now.
this is great information...thanks for sharing...we all possess unique qualities for specific purpose...I embrace my self-worth more after hearing this documentary. I appreciate others so much more now...thank..you so much for being free in your destiny!!
I love her to the moon and back. Such a wonderful soul ..thank you for all your teaching to help us individually understand our actions and thoughts ..our self worth!.
great video and great interview i just felt so peaceful watching it
A summery of this from my point of view.
I fail, I'm human, I'm awsome, I'm uncertain, I'm like everybody els, I got empathy, I fail, I fail, Oh I fail, I'm vulnerable, I'm in the riskzone, I'm in the arena, I get attacked, I'm not weak, I fail, I'm worthy, I'm in the arena, I'm worthy, I'm happy.
Nice summary!
Waaaouh!! I just had an AHA moment!! When Brené mentions the fact that you cannot love your kids more than you love yourself and it showin up mostly in judgment and critiques once they become us or remind us of us and our partners... INCREDIBLE link. I had NEVER thought of that before. Wonderful interview!! Thank you :)
Just discovered Jonathan Fields and this wonderful series of profound and moving interviews. Brene Brown offered me an ah ha moment at 41:00. So appreciate the openness of these interviews. Bravo! Looking forward to more.
I really appreciate the way JF draws out his guests and his genuine way of sharing his own related experiences so that the viewer feels included in the room with friends.
Jonathan, you're such an amazing interviewer! you're very easy-going,you let people be and you're interviews go so smooth. I can feel the (healthy) curiosity you have, you DO want to learn, just like us(viewers), which make me feel less bad about not being there with these amazing people, because a lot of the questions i had are being asked and a lot of the true depth is being showed. It just satisfies me.Thank you.
Thank you both for this amazing work, it's really a blessing and truly appreciated!!
Just amazing interview Jonathan. What a great connection you and Brene had. Thanks so much to both of you.
I am going to have to watch this again. And probably again. The part about not being able to help others care for themselves, or be more resilient than you are yourself blew me away. I have also said to others, that one of my biggest fears is losing my compassion for others, even when I sort of hate them, because when we stop having compassion, I think we lose our humanity. So many more things to love, I couldn't even keep track. Thank you so much!
I absolutely LOVE this interview. xoxo
I see you. I respect you. I thank you. This is simply beautiful. The dialogue made me feel like I was both of you. Such good work! Bravo and gratitude!
wept at the end . . . those closest to us with their rallying for our failure.
I blessss them. I AM grateful for them
Thank you both for all your warmth and love! I am inspired and touched and feel a lot of connection.
that's what so need to change in this world, never have there been so many intelligent and bright people on the face of earth. and the automation that was to free us from drudgery, surely life. .What would it wake to clear the air, what would it take to live vibrant lives as we did before TV, blew our minds in so many ways . I got these words of advice from my husband, 'give the kids the good times we never had'. eye I sir, did.. isn't it time we live in their world? ours stinks to high heaven.
That was powerful! Thank you so much for this video.
thank you, I really enjoyed listening! you are both such beautiful people
Wow 😳 what a great conversation! Full of wisdom and wholeheartedly love... thank you for inspiration 😊
Thank you both so, so much for sharing this conversation with us.
Thank you for the work you do and for making this video. This is beautiful.
I love how in the beginning it says "new research", as if the idea of vulnerability leading to goodness is a new concept. I love psychology, but the stories that mankind have been making and writing since our existence have been preaching much of what psychology teaches today.
Brene has great observation skills. Her gift stands out from the crowd which can be difficult, but also a blessing. ❤️
Two AWESOME people engaged in meaningful conversation. Doesn't get much better than this! Thanks!!!
I agree, Kim. This is sooo awesome. have shared it with those I know need to hear it. Awesome interview. SO TRUE!!!
Thankyou, the both of you were wonderful to listen to.
Brene is amazing....so articulate. Thank you Jonathan for your amazing project; I love your interviews!
Brene’ I am really enjoying your sharing about shame and vulnerability. The idea of being good enough is full of value to me as a woman, mother, wife, full time employee and a part time doctoral student. I am good enough and there is no guilt, and definitely no shame in the fact that I am living a full whole hearted life.
love her work
Best Brené Brown talk ever ! This is so deep .
I love you Brene. Thank you. Xx
Thank you for making this project!
Thank you Brene. Your TED talkso are wonderful, this interview is awesome. Thank you, Brene and Jonathan, two beautiful souls. You guys bring something everyone of us have in the deep of our hearts, we think that it's a shame, other people don't have it, actually we are all humans, we all have it, it's just the shame that stops us to share, we try to hide it from to be seen by other people. Thank you guys very much :) I love Brene's works, make me feel whatever we feel, we are not alone.
Jonathan Fields, this is an amazing video ..... both you & Brene are incredible. Thanks for posting this for all to see.
Loved this video!! simple and powerful..
SO WONDERFUL!!! Thank you for letting us all witness your conversation. What a gift!!
Jonathan Fields, I love you and all that you do!
What he says about entrepreneurship is so profound. Game changer for me. This is one of the best interviews/conversations Ive seen with Brene thus far. Thanks!
I LOVE you guys.....looking forward to more interviews of you both together. Brene, I've just been introduced to you through a past Oprah show on Satellite Radio, and I am in love with your mind & your vulnerability. I will be following you regularly. You are a perfect reminder of who I want to continue to be, you are an inspiration for me to know more, and you are a blessing for us whole-hearted people. Thank you & love your spirit
