Brené Brown, Ph.D., LMSW is a research professor at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work. Her topics of study include vulnerability, courage, authenticity, and shame. During the first five years her research focused on shame and empathy, which served as a base for her current research regarding a concept she has defined as Wholeheartedness. Her work has been featured on PBS, NPR, CNN and was the topic of two 2010 TEDx talks (Houston and Kansas City).[2]

Brown is the author of The Gifts of Imperfection: Letting Go of Who We Think We Should Be and Embracing Who We Are (Hazelden, 2010) and I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn’t): Telling the Truth About Perfectionism, Inadequacy, and Power (Penguin/Gotham, 2007). She is also the author of Connections, a psychoeducational shame resilience curriculum.

Brown’s current research focuses on authentic leadership and wholeheartedness in families, schools, and organizations.
