Sinossi
What if we accepted our struggles and stopped trying to impress our friends? In this poignant, hilarious book, the bestselling co-author of I’ll Be There (But I’ll Be Wearing Sweatpants) shares her experiments in finding our way back to each other
Jess Johnston used to feel alone in her mess. In a random burst of courage, she started sharing about those insecurities and struggles out loud, and what she found shocked her. Again and again, people replied, “Me too! I thought I was the only one!”
In Perfect is Boring (and It Tastes Like Kale), Jess reminds readers that no one’s living a perfect life, and there’s a powerful interpersonal connection that happens when we’re real about it. Maybe some people are cut out for perfectionism. (Martha Stewart? Daniel Tiger’s Mom?) For the rest of us, the secret to living a full and connected life is finding the courage to show up as our real selves and stop participating in our own loneliness.
With honesty, heart, and humor, Johnston shares the lessons she’s learning (and relearning) about cultivating an authentic life, including:
- “I count, I’m important, and I matter—even if people introduce themselves to me 500 times.”
- “I want to be the best mother that has ever mothered, but it turns out I’m a mother who has a literal meltdown because her vacuum got run over by the car.”
- “Showing up is more important than winning. Trying is more important than saving face.”
Written for anyone who's ever felt left out, or wanted to throw their phone across the room after looking at Instagram, Perfect is Boring (and It Tastes Like Kale) offers readers a breath of fresh air by sharing the unfiltered truth that we're in this together.

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. What if we accepted our struggles and stopped trying to be someone we're not? In this poignant, hilarious book, the bestselling co-author of I'll Be There (But I'll Be Wearing Sweatpants) shares her experiments in finding our way back to each other. Jess Johnston used to feel alone in her mess. Then, in a random burst of courage, she started sharing those insecurities and struggles out loud, and what she found shocked her. Again and again, women replied, "Me too! I thought I was the only one!" Women are really hard on themselves. We often believe that if we just "did better," "worked harder," and "were less messy/flawed/human," our lives would be infinitely better and we'd receive the belonging we crave, but the exact opposite is true. It isn't our lack of perfection that isolates us; rather, it's our authenticity about our imperfections that brings us together. With honesty, heart, and humor, Johnston takes on the lies she's believed and the lessons she's learned (and is still learning), including: * if I'm rejected, I will die. (We won't.) * I'm a junior varsity adult, and the best spot for me is usually the bench. (Nope, we've got to get in there and play.) * my job is to keep people happy and make sure they like me. (Excuse me while I go hide in my closet and have an anxiety attack.) Jess Johnston reminds us that the answers are in us already, in accepting that we're a lot--a lot of mess, and a lot of great too.
