“I Thought It Was Just Me (But It Isn’t)” by Brené Brown shines a light on the hidden epidemic of shame and its power to erode our self-worth, relationships, and creativity. Drawing on extensive research and heartfelt stories, Brown identifies common shame triggers—perfectionism, comparison, criticism—and shows how they fuel blame, silence, and isolation. Through practical exercises and compassionate guidance, she teaches you to recognize shame, cultivate empathy and self-compassion, and build the courage to share your authentic self. An empowering roadmap to resilience, connection, and wholehearted living.
