Rylann Bereznitzky, a self-proclaimed "influencer wannabe," found herself in just such a situation when she suffered a rather embarrassing injury: a broken arm.

To her surprise, her followers not only accepted her broken arm, but they embraced it. They shared their own stories of mishaps and misadventures, and they found comfort in seeing that even the most seemingly flawless people are not immune to life's little setbacks.
