WHO DECIDES WHAT A “PERFECT” LIFE LOOKS LIKE?
USA GLOBAL TV® & RADIO
PRESENTS
THE SOCIAL EDGE
HOSTED BY AMANDA HOLMSTROM
FEATUED GUEST TRICIA COPELAND (PEN NAME MARIA JANE)
What happens when the life you have always imagined for yourself begins competing with the life—and the people—you love?
In Perfect Always, the second installment of Maria Jane’s Perfect series, Chloe wants something bigger than the small town she grew up in. She is working toward a successful career in the city while trying to maintain a long-distance relationship with her high school sweetheart, Adam. Then another possibility enters her life, and the future she thought she understood becomes far less certain.
On this episode of THE SOCIAL EDGE, Amanda Holmstrom welcomes award-winning author Tricia Copeland, who writes contemporary romance under the pen name Maria Jane.
Together, they take the story beyond the pages of the book to explore something many of us experience: the pressure to create the “perfect” life.
How much of what we want is actually what we want—and how much comes from family, relationships, our social circles and the expectations around us?
Can you choose ambition without sacrificing love?
What happens when the person you love has a completely different vision for the future?
And is there really one perfect choice?
Perfect Always continues the story that began with Perfect and follows Chloe as decisions about college, career, relationships and where she wants to build her life begin to collide. It is a natural starting point for a SOCIAL EDGE conversation about expectations, identity, relationships and having the confidence to choose your own path.
