Official synopsis Publisher
Have you ever wondered why the seemingly never-ending trials and tribulations of life seem so hard for us? Do you ever feel as if you’re the only one grappling with fear of failure or rejection, self-censorship and shame, family dysfunction, career anxiety, personal defeats, and all kinds of heartbreak along the way? But what if “broken” doesn’t mean less valuable? In fact, what if all of the “unwanted” stuff is the most important currency for growth, insight, and success? In YOU KNEW WHEN YOU WERE TWO, internationally known acting and creative life coach, Anthony Meindl, shares humorous and thought-provoking stories of his journey seeking his true self, starting as a young gay boy navigating Midwest alienation to forming his own tribe as a successful creative in Hollywood.Through laughter and tears, rage and redemption, confusion and clarity, he discovers that that the only true way to celebrate and embrace our whole selves — with love, gratitude, and grace — is to accept the flaws and fears and fuck-ups, the pitfalls and pockmarks of our weird, terrifying, humbled, and blessed lives.
