The mixed messages of our culture create such inner hostility toward our individual selves that many of us feel frozen in place, unable to venture out of our limiting comfort zones. We constantly compare our behind-the-scenes to the seemingly perfect outer shells of others. We feel stuck. Pressured to succeed, to be the best, and to be perfect. Jennifer Ann Butler (“Jen”) knows the painful paradox of perfection all too well. She chased it for decades, only to find herself living two lives: the put-together perfectionist on the outside and the suicidal addict on the inside. Fueled entirely off of the emotional energy of depression during withdrawals off of antidepressants, ”imperfect” is a behind-the-scenes view into Jen’s journey from addiction and atheism to sobriety and spirituality. With humor, doodles, and a refreshingly raw and honest approach, Jen demonstrates the true power of embracing imperfection. how imperfect are you?
