Summary "The world is shouting at us to be more, to strive harder, and to never stop pushing. In her evocative writing style, Mikala Albertson takes you through her transparent and gritty story of chasing a perfect and pretend life and invites you to embrace who you already are: loved, imperfect, mostly ordinary, and so very on purpose"-- Publisher's website.
