Actress and comedian Lisa Ann Walter encourages women to laugh at what they can't change and accept themselves as they are right now.

Walters celebrates and bemoans femininity in her book, The Best Thing about My Ass is That It's Behind Me, while offering strength to women tackling the undeniable difference in their aging bodies. Walter has long struggled to reconcile what a real, healthy woman should look like opposed to Hollywood's version. She finally realized that it's not good to torture yourself by trying to achieve perfection, but to accept herself as-is, focus on what you can change, and enjoy life.
