Imperfect: A Raw Memoir and Guided Journal for the Broken, the Brave, and the Ever-Evolving

Born in Moscow, Russia with congenital lower limb deficiency caused by amniotic band syndrome, Kat Floridia was placed in an orphanage before being adopted by an American family. Growing up visibly disabled, she faced scrutiny, bullying, and isolation—learning early to endure pain in silence as systems and expectations underestimated her worth. This is a deeply honest memoir about resilience without guarantees, strength without applause, and healing that isn’t linear. This is not a guide. It’s not a promise of closure. It’s a story for anyone who has ever felt invisible, misunderstood, or forced to prove their worth again and again.
