NATIONAL BESTSELLER - In a time of rising authoritarianism and attacks on personal freedoms, the New York Times bestselling author of I'm Still Here chronicles her efforts to live as her full self in a society that wants women--and Black women in particular--to do anything but that.

"A book that resonates and asks us to dig deep--not with judgment, but so that we better understand ourselves and the world around us."--Phoebe Robinson, bestselling author, founder of Tiny Reparations Books

"In these pages, Austin Channing Brown shows us how to survive and thrive even now."--Glennon Doyle, bestselling author of We Can Do Hard Things

As an antiracism educator and writer leading through America's cycles of racial unrest, Austin Channing Brown reached a crossroads. "I love my work," she writes, "and I am tired. We are tired. Tired of protesting. Tired of 'saving democracy.' Tired of educating and explaining." She began to ask, "What do I deserve, not just as a citizen but as a human?"

Full of Myself answers that question. Weaving personal narrative with perceptive social commentary, Brown offers a look at the mechanisms that limit who Black women are allowed to be--at work, at home, in community--and the defining moments when she decided that self-possession is the justice work she had been made to undervalue. From skinny-dipping in the ocean to becoming a mom, she delves into the drama of life and invites readers to begin defining themselves not as empty vessels to improve the world, but as a people born free in spirit, in hope, in joy.

For Black women seeking to understand the true roots of their burnout, or for anyone wondering what it means to live joyfully in a hostile world, Full of Myself is a breath of fresh air and an invitation to full humanity.
