Brené Brown: The Call to Courage

Considering Brown's oustanding Ted Talks, this Netflix special comes as a deep disappointment with all of her quirky sayings and ideas being regurgitated in a blant and predictable fashion.

With no original thought, it seems that Brown has ran out of ideas as she akwardly tries to fill up the time with personal narratives which are akward and disjointed in its intended message. Her self-assigned role as a hyped-up comedian story-teller (with more than usual swearing) overshadows the essence of her message.

This Netflix special comes across as stereotypical with many cliches we have come to associate with motivational speakers. There seems to be much less authenticity and vulnerability in Brown's way of presenting, as it seems much more rehearsed and edited.

One is left wondering where Brown's courageous stage presence has disappeared to.
