I thought about something I taught my kids when they were in elementary school ... I used to ask them to cup their hands and put them in front of me. And I said, 'In your hand is your flame. It's your soul. It's your light. You need to surround yourself with friends who, when your light is shining bright, don't feel the need to blow it
out.
Surround Yourself With Friends Who Won't Blow Out Your Candle
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 1
Let's say you decide to make some chocolate chip cookies. You get out a bowl, you add the milk, you add the flour, the brown sugar, the egg. But what if I told you that the cookies changed, the way they tasted, based on the bowl you picked. That's what language is. Language does not just communicate emotion; it shapes what we're
feeling.
A Lesson from Brené's Waitressing Days: Languages Shapes Emotion
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 1
If all we really have are three words to describe—happy, sad, and mad—what happens to grief, anguish, despair, wonder joy, heartbreak? What happens? And that is why language is a portal to universes, new choices, and second
chances.

Shame Is the Birthplace of Perfectionism; Healthy Striving Is Internally Driven
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 1
Do not try to forge connection with others or build a culture of connection until you are fully connected and know
yourself.
Cultivate Self-Connection Before Trying to Connect With Others
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 2
Envy is usually an experience between two people; jealousy is an experience between three. Envy is when we want something that someone else has; jealousy is when we're afraid of losing something we already have to someone
else.
Envy Is an Experience Between 2 People; Jealousy Is an Experience Between 3
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 1
For about 10 years, we've had one question, and we use it to vet everything that comes in—every speaking request, every podcast, everything, which is 'Does this serve the work and the
research?'
Brené Turned Down a Day With Oprah to Attend Her Kid's Water Polo Match
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 2

I think if we don't figure out how to hold ourselves and other people accountable in a way that doesn't include shame and vitriol and belittling... You have to be accountable for your actions; you have to be accountable for what you say; you have to be accountable for policies. I think if we don't better understand accountability, I think it's going to be a long
walk.

Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 2
The far enemy of connection is disconnection ... But the near enemy of connection is

business.
Brené Brown Learned Recognizing Emotions Within Others Is Impossible
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 2
Our heart is this sea of expansiveness, of emotion, of experience. And at some point, that emotion and experience needs to bump into
language.
Brené Begins 'Atlas of the Heart' With a Rumi Quote: 'Heart Is Sea, Language Is Shore'
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 1
What a 'near enemy' is, it is an emotion or a virtue that looks and feels and masquerades like the thing that we are looking for or want to be, but it sabotages
it.
Near Enemies: Sabotaging Emotions Mistaken for Positive Virtues
Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart - Part 2
