In the next 3 episodes I’m going to be mirroring the episodes that Brene Brown did with her sisters over the summer in her podcast Unlocking Us while taking another dive into this book, The Gifts of Imperfection. In this book there are 10 guideposts for Wholehearted living which are basically 10 acts to let go of and what to try to cultivate in their place. All really how to live a remarkable, vulnerable and wholehearted life. I took this quiz and am now sitting down to discuss where I fall in each of them.

Part 1 we go over the first 3 guideposts: Letting go of what people think and cultivating authenticity, letting go of perfectionism and cultivating self-compassion, and letting go of numbing and powerlessness and cultivating a resilient spirit.
