Life takes grit. After thinking about grit in relation to her students, parenting, and her own personal development, Danielle was reminded of Angela Duckworth’s 2016 book Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance. As she was thinking about grit, her very first thought was: Can you "Brené Brown" grit? Can you have grit and eschew shame, embrace vulnerability, and adopt imperfection? Basically, can you grit gently? In this episode, Danielle wonders through these questions. She digs into Duckworth’s book and research and applies Brené Brown's concepts of shame, vulnerability, and imperfection to grit. If you have ever wanted something so bad, you pushed, you grinded, but you also lost a bit of yourself along the way, this episode is for you.
