Atlas of the Heart: Mapping Meaningful Connection and the Language of Human Experience

In Atlas of the Heart, Brown takes us on a journey through eighty-seven of the emotions and experiences that define what it means to be human. As she maps the necessary skills and an actionable framework for meaningful connection, she gives us the language and tools to access a universe of new choices and second chances—a universe where we can share and steward the stories of our bravest and most heartbreaking moments with one another in a way that builds connection.

I found this book to be a collection of all the previous books, podcasts, experiences and general learnings into a collection of emotions and their definitions. I think if you were Brene Brown "woke" this would be a great reference book as you know the level of self realization she is hoping for you to attain. As a new reader, this would probably be lost on you as there is no follow through with how to process these emotions.

The physical copy of this book was unnecessarily heavy and overpriced. I could see this was probably because Brene Brown was hoping this would be a reference text book for mental health workers and college classes...

Nice deep dive into most of the emotions Brown addresses. Although, she does gloss over a few of them. Still a good read for those of us who've numbed our emotions. . .and/or who need a basic understanding.
