Brené Brown: Seven things we learned about our emotions from the best-selling author on Woman’s Hour
Brené spoke to BBC Radio 4 Woman’s Hour’s Anita Rani about her book and our emotions. Here are some of the things we learned…Brené’s new book looks at the 87 emotions and experiences that define what it means to be human. She told Woman’s Hour how she came to that number and why “emotional granularity” is important.
“So for me, kind of survival and also as the oldest, as my job protecting my siblings in what was a very intense family, intense love, intense joy, and then also intense anger, an intense lack of predictability about how things were going to go, at a very early age, I learned very quickly how to recognise patterns and connections between people's behaviours, their thinking and their emotions. And I got really, really good at it.
“But also, politically, in our culture on a macro level, we hold so much contempt for each other. I consider myself to be very self-aware, I've evolved a lot, but right now with this new variant of Covid, I go into terrible five-year-old contempt for people not getting vaccinated. I just feel contempt.”
