I am a member of the Senior Faculty of The Daring Way™ developed by Dr. Brené Brown.

The Daring Way™ guides people to identify where they want to show up, be seen and live brave in their lives. In addition, it helps people understand shame, recognize when they feel it, what triggers it in them, and learn how to move through it quicker and with less misery. Dr. Brown writes, “Shame is the intensely painful feeling or experience that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love and belonging.” The antidote to shame is replacing isolation with connection, and choosing to live with authenticity. That takes courage, but it can transform your life. The curriculum says:

The Daring Way™ method is based on research of Brené Brown Ph.D. LMSW. Dr Brené Brown is a research professor at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work. She has spent the past twelve years studying vulnerability, courage, worthiness, and shame. Her groundbreaking research has been featured on PBS, NPR, CNN, The Katie Show, and Oprah Winfrey’s Super Soul Sunday. Brené is the author of the #1 New York Times Bestseller, Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the way we Live, Love, Parent and Lead (2012), the New York Times Bestseller, The Gifts of Imperfection (2010) and I Thought It Was Just Me (2007). Brené’s 1010 TEXx Houston talk, The Power of Vulnerability, is one of the top ten most viewed TED talks in the world, with over 11 million viewers. Additionally, Brené gave the closing talk at the 2012 TED conference wehre she talked about shame, courage, and innovation.

As a Senior Faculty member with The Daring Way™, I am available to offer case consultation with individuals working toward Daring Way™ certification. Please contact me if you’d like more info about cost and scheduling.

Based on the Best Selling Book Daring Greatly by Brené Brown, her 2 part appearance on Oprah, her Netflix special and her Atlas of the Heart series on HBO max.

Do you ever judge yourself for the tiniest mistake? Do you put up a wall in order to protect yourself from hurt feelings? Do you use the phrase, “If only I was ___________ (smart enough, brave enough, pretty enough or skinny enough); then I could change my life? Do you struggle with perfectionism?
