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.
Over the past two decades, Brown’s extensive research into the experiences that make us who we are has shaped the cultural conversation and helped define what it means to be courageous with our lives. Atlas of the Heart draws on this research, as well as on Brown’s singular skills as a storyteller, to show us how accurately naming an experience doesn’t give the experience more power—it gives us the power of understanding, meaning, and choice.
Brown shares, “I want this book to be an atlas for all of us, because I believe that, with an adventurous heart and the right maps, we can travel anywhere and never fear losing ourselves.”

Reviews of Atlas of the heart
It’s a Brene Brown book and I had very high expectations, well, it delivered and then some. Book is very well written, thorough and organized. It has the perfect mix of storyline, reference points, comparisons and analysis. This book not only has the substance but the looks! Design, paper quality, pictures are all top notch. At first I found it ironic that a book about raw and messy emotions is that beautiful outside but probably that was exactly the point. It invites you to sit with the book and then with your emotions. Very well done.
