I love this❤ It's 100% true. I wish others would believe this but many are so caught up in the spiral of comparison that is never attainable nor sustainable, they can't see past it. It seems to be an addiction. I can only pray that I am raising my kids to know they are worthy and enough and that when they are exposed to social media they choose to pass on it instead of endlessly perusing only to be feeling worse about themselves and their life. Each of us has unique qualities and gifts we need to embrace. If we did this maybe we could appreciate what others' qualities and gifts are as well instead of being envious and wanting more.

It all comes back to Self. I’m single and spend most of my time alone and I love it! and am never lonely. However I’ve felt in the past experience severe isolation and depression when I felt separated from Spirit. To me it’s finding the God/Spirit in Self which IS bigger than anything! And more true and aligned to you than any group or pose. It’s God. And nothing can replace that, no relationship, family, job or hobbie... 💜

I had an old Aunty and Uncle who needed me and truly cherished my company. They were lonely, they had no family who cared about them, and no one visited them…I was there for them though….The look on their faces of love and happiness when I came to visit them ( which wasn’t that often) was moving and touched my soul like nothing else. They looked like people who were forgotten and finally someone remembered them…it was sheer joy to see me.. I needed more of that, and I regret more than anything it going more often, for me and for them…their joy and luv to see me gave me purpose and meaning to my life and it filled me to the brim with joy and a sense of total belonging. I belonged to them like I belonged to no one else…we needed each other…NO other humans made me feel so fulfilled and accepted and loved…I felt they were my tribe, I truly BELONGED when together with them….it was a deep, true, authentic belonging….they are fine now, and I feel empty. I’m only in my 50s , but I already feel like life isn’t worth it anymore….I feel no purpose and I don’t believe I will belong to anyone anymore…life just is meaningless… I think of them everyday…everyday…

I have come to believe that true belonging comes from the realization that the bottom line is that we are all alone. No one is going to save us from this life. In our very hardest moments, we will find ourselves alone. No one is going to save us. We go into death alone. We belong only to ourselves and to the Spirit of this world.

I love hearing the difference between fitting in and belonging!

When you feel alone or lonely, means somewhere you think or feel something is missing. The true optimal connection with yourself is missing. When you are connected with yourself and in the present moment, the only moment that exist you are fulfilled in that moment because your attention is on you in the present moment. In the present moment you are feeling your body, senses and the world outside of you reflects the inside of you. When you can fill yourself up with so much love for yourself, you attract all the love in the world. Why? Because you are giving it to yourself.. feeling lonely or alone isn’t bad, you may feel this so you can heal from it. Just feel the feeling without hanging a new thought on the feeling. How you do this is put your awareness on the feeling, focus on the feeling. Feel what the feeling does, how it feels, does it mime or does it stay on one spot in your body. Stay present with that feeling till it moves away and flow trough your body. You don’t hold the feeling than and you heal from the feeling because you don’t hang another thought on the feeling. The suffering people do is the suffering of the thoughts in their mind.. ones you know how to control your thoughts, by being truly present and fill your mind up attentional with positive thoughts you get a master mind and you controle your own life, mind, feelings and emotions.. doesn’t mean that you don’t feel, because you are ment to feel and experience everything! Means you let your feelings go trough your body and you don’t hold them in your body anymore. You let them flow! Energy flows and you are here on earth to experience and feel that is what life means. Only human don’t know how to do that anymore because of the connection with their selves is lost. That’s what the world doesn’t want you to know. When you are connected with yourself you don’t need anything external anymore because you create.

Don't know who I am more in love with. What a wonderful conversation. They're letting us know it is ok to be impecfect, to be damaged and not care whether we are accepted or not. Just to continue to learn.

I lost myself for so long trying to be someone else for my, then, Partner of 5 years. Who I thought HE wanted me to be. I've been using the last 18 months since I walked away, learning to love and accept I really am, and it has been a hard path, but the right one xxx

"I belong everywhere I go no matter where it is or who I'm with, as long as I never betray myself. The minute I become who you want me to be in order to fit in and make sure people like me, is the moment I no longer belong anywhere." Authenticity at its finest!

Feeling lonely is such a universal and existential feeling, no matter who anyone is. "Belong to yourself above all else."

Glad you enjoyed it!

I think belonging is knowing you are OK alone and yet, knowing you have someone, who’s in your corner, no matter what, and it’s reciprocal.

Absolutely the lesson to learn in this life. Hard. Standing up for who you are is dangerous!! Here’s to living dangerously!!

I do not enjoy small talk and therefore do not feel connected to people when small talk is going on. But I am lucky enough to belong to a recovery group and find after a meeting, I very much enjoy discussing some important issue they discussed. I will be 80 very soon, Brene and feel that I do fit your criteria and have found a very comfortable connection to God, myself and others and ALWAYS one of us is interesting and connective! So keep on!

I love the way she acknowledges her parents. Something I am still working on.

It gives me a sliver of peace and acceptance hearing someone I respect so highly hear that she often doesn’t feel like she fits in, how she compares herself to others and tries to compete silently to be a better person.

To be loved, is to be accepted for all that you bring even the bad, even the difficulty that life brings. To be loved is to celebrated despite the lows. For me, after being discarded from a narcissistic marriage, I got a great, great gift; I learned no matter whether I fit in or feel outcast, I Love Myself! I think that is the most important gift one can get. I may not fit in, and now I find myself celebrating my differences! I’m now a realist, I do not wish to be like the “in group,” nor liked only for things I used to be liked for. I am just fine, and I Love myself in my goodness or in the difficulties. Being accommodating is a gift until it defines you and undoes who you are, because you sacrificed yourself, sacrificed your authenticity. What you Value is key! I learned to Value my weaknesses. Go figure that, and what a Gift that pain (discard) brought me. I am now defiant, where I used to try so very hard to fit into other’s expectations. Love Ms. Brown. We are NOT puzzle pieces, we are forever changing. Accepting that is the first chapter to a beautiful new story.

Brilliant Brene, brilliant piece of interview and sharing. Oh, Brene, you are not only one, who honor being yourself, being authentic, being connected to one (yourself) again. Like breaking that spell of being lost with others. Compromising yourself.

I really needed to hear this TODAY. I’m in the thick of it rn. It’s the greatest learning season of my life as I care for my elderly mother. The more I learn the more intense the emotional disconnection to her is. It’s very confusing as I want her to be comfortable in her home. I run ragged caring for her, my son and the house-inside and out. I’m exhausted and completely uncertain of our future. She won’t write a will. I’m in a loop rn. It’s hard to get perspective and stay positive. Her energy is very strong, she believes that she will be rewarded for her struggles and has created just that her whole life. It’s like a spiritual Tug-of-War

She describes herself as super introverted and private, by being on the public stage she is being super brave. I admire her research, her message and who she is. She is Brene .

I might over mother my boys to some peoples views, but it has always been more important to me that my children feel like they are loved and cared for. Sure it comes from a place of lack in my life, but they are such beautiful people and I take my responsibility seriously and feel like they have been a reason for me to start my healing and find the best of myself.

I think it's key to point out that your parents went along with your changes and your discovery of self-love .... many do not and it can really hinder growth as an adult when the shame script comes out coupled with shunning and disgard.

An incredible women, who at times when asked a question, pauses in silence to reflect…yet her moment of silence speaks volumes of who she is…. Simply amazing!!! I myself, am looking to offer to share my experiences to help others with their challenges ( my educational background coincidentally is psychology). It must have been my calling in advance so they say. It truly does prove to us how such little things we take for granted such as our environment, our interactions with others, ourselves, as well as, day to day unexpected challenges thrown our way can shape our mindset and impact our health at some extent.

Hello how’ you doing?

I always felt and acted like I belonged to me and yet people would think I was being selfish and not thinking of them… My hardest moments in life made me learn how best to be with me…not depending on anyone. As soon as I am in a relationship I change to suit them, because I can see they don’t love themselves enough independently. They pull me in their way because firstly they are Man, they need a woman that suits “them” How and who I am, had least value because they don’t associate themselves with my higher standards, values,etiquette etc

You feel alone when you forget who you really are. The missing piece is connection to Source energy. Feel that energy(love) and you never feel alone. It's a remembering.

B. Brown... Powerful Woman & Thinker 💙

Ahh, Brene… there is no blueprint because you’re the only YOU and yes it can be hard to be truly you, but it’s the best version of life I believe anyone can lead. I can understand feeling alone, which I think comes from a lack of having people you can truly relate to on a regular basis, but there’s no better way to live than loving yourself and giving from that to others. Keep strong. I hope I get to meet you on one of those flights in business class one day. 😊✈️❤️

Hi. Something you said here has put into words what I feel “ feeling alone ,comes from a lack of having people you can truly relate to on a regular basis “ . I have found this to be so true since my husband died. I have adult children but they’re a different generation and while our relationship is close , is not like that of of your peers.

I’m adaptable, I don’t care if others like me, I think I can make others comfortable, I feel I can fit in anywhere and I love making others fit in. -- I know my identity yet feel incredibly alone. It’s hard to be me….. your story sounds a lot like mine. Uniquely different but I feel you, I love being alone, apparently on my own terms. I’m in the tub crying, all alone, I hope this makes sense. I love your work!

Brene Brown is the trailblazer; she will find no road map. Be Brave.

Hi how are you doing?

I experience a sense of scramble to find themselves, I don't hear clarity in this interview, but I appreciate Brenes honesty of her feelings. Who we are is innate, it isnt about getting more information but revelation about ourselves, others and our world. Peeling back the history of our lives, to listen to our hearts, we were born complete. The doing bit comes later. Making space and taking time and the courage to actually stop and listen to what is going on inside, no noise, avoiding distractions. Complexity causes confusion, chaos, lack of clarity, the opposite of order and simplicity, which comes easier when we trust ourselves. Life maybe challenging but we have free will to remove complexity, create space and focus on what we value most. Eg I value peace, I cut out as much self made stressful thinking, doing etc, when I'm aware I pay attention to my thoughts, emotions, body. I cut back until I have peace, I challenge any unhelpful thinking, what I call going down the rabbit hole....when I notice this I stop ✋, having mental awareness is important to gently move away from the rabbit hole. Space creates silence to actually hear above the noise of life. If we are too busy for this perhaps that is a signal to make a change in that direction. Simple changes in a direction that feels good, I have found is key, this gives a chance for our wisdom to guide us.

" I don't hear clarity in this interview" this is the first comment I've seen that says they didn't hear clarity. your comment seems to list all the elements of BB's path but seems to show that you aren't hearing it from her when she speaks. like you have a mental block about hearing it from someone who says it plainly, or have to restate what they said and claim you didn't hear it..

What great advice” cut back till peace comes”.

This was a really beautiful interview. I've seen a lot of Brene Brown's work, but none better. Great questions by Lewis! Powerful answers by Brene!

"The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won't. It's whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere."

I resonate 100%. With Dr Brene brown, it's complicated

"I Belong to Me" enough said ❤

Boy did I need to hear this today! Thank you for your honesty and wisdom. Infinite Love and Gratitude ❤

#Loveyourself When we spend time alone with ourselves, we go inside to listen to our Soul…(our true essence) when we listen, we see more clearly. And when we see more clearly, we learn to love ourselves, & when we love ourselves, we see our value, & when we see our value, we find the courage to see how deserving we are! ❤

Being vulnerable can be a lovely thing. Cool conversation 👏

Lewis there's an absolute openness about your conversations. In actuation you have profound humane discourse. I realised when you were part of my batch in the one world University off Madras Chennai. I didn't know that you were a giant discovering human elements. There is so much earthy in understanding the human element in you it is really very good.

Ugh. I have PTSD and an ED from 20 years of abuse from men. 10 years ago I got into therapies because I was pregnant with my daughter. It is REALLY hard being a human being. It's so hard to teach coping skills when I haven't even mastered them myself.

You guys are learning them together

I love her hesitation on the “who are you” question. I just struggled with that question in a job interview and have been beating myself up over it. It’s complicated and hard when you are a private and reserved person.

Thanks for sharing that. I haven't interviewed in 30 years so if I change jobs I'll need to prepare a response. 🙂

Ms. Brown I believe you are an INFJ on the Myers Briggs. I have felt like an outsider and "different" all my life. Once I understood this was my personality style, it all made sense. That feeling didn't go way, but I reframed it and now consider it a giftedness.
