For the first time, I started looking at this idea differently. I don’t even want to be perfect. Because if I was — where would I grow? Where would I be challenged? Where would the fire come from that keeps me moving forward? Growth is what drives us. So I asked myself — “What do I even have to offer?” And the answer was… a hell of a lot. When you stop beating yourself up for not being perfect, and instead give yourself credit for what you’ve survived, what you’ve learned, and what you’ve done just to still be standing — everything shifts. I’ve overcome a lot. I’ve fought battles that I’ve lost and battles I’ve won — and even the ones I “lost” taught me something. I got life experience. I got perspective. I got stronger. And I didn’t fucking quit. That’s why this community exists. Because all of life’s ups, downs, scars, wins, and lessons make us perfectly imperfect.

I’m sitting here, round two of trying to build a community on Skool after watching Alex’s live stream, just thinking... “What’s the perfect community for me to create? What will make the most money? What will sound the best?” And then it hit me — that moment you can’t fight. I don’t need to create the perfect anything. Because guess what? I’m not fucking perfect. No one is. But for so long, I’ve let that idea of perfection get in my way. I’d get so caught up in how it should look and how it should be that I’d stall. I’d freeze. I wouldn’t even take the first step. That’s where Perfectly Imperfect came from. So welcome.
