📚 Rising Strong by Brené Brown

This book explores what it takes to get back up after we stumble and fall. Building on her research on vulnerability, Brené Brown draws on interviews and examples from her own life to set out a way of recovering from falls, mistakes and hurt.

Key Themes

• The Reckoning: noticing our emotions and getting curious about them
• The Rumble: questioning the stories we tell ourselves until we reach the truth
• The Revolution: how practising this changes the way we live
• Rising after a fall as a way to cultivate wholeheartedness

Sissoo recommends this because it offers an honest, kind way to look at the moments when things go wrong. It invites curiosity about our feelings and the stories we tell ourselves, which can sit well alongside your own wellbeing journey.
