In week two of the virtual book club, Kristen is joined again by Kelly and Alexis to dive into the first five lies from Perfect is Boring (And Tastes Like Kale). Their conversation blends laughter, deep reflection, and candid truth-telling as they unpack relatable struggles with perfectionism, comparison, invisibility, and emotional exhaustion. The group reflects on how Jess Johnston's storytelling makes listeners feel seen—like they're talking with a friend who truly gets it. Together, they explore how women, especially those juggling work, parenting, and societal expectations, internalize unrealistic standards and carry invisible burdens. The episode touches on everything from the false sense of connection through social media to the power of real friendships, validating that no one is alone. This raw and honest discussion offers encouragement and a gentle nudge toward self-compassion.
