    Amanda Jane Cooper had the perfect life on the outside and war on the inside. She regularly stood in front of thousands of cheering people as the star actress playing Glinda in the hit Broadway musical, Wicked. She’s won film roles opposite Ellen Page and Thomas Haden Church. She even found success in television with guest and recurring roles on Glee, Bones, and CSI. By any outside measure of success, Amanda had it.
    But inside, she was all doubt, unease, and trouble. She struggled with her self-image, comparing her body with everyone else’s in the entertainment industry. Then came an eating disorder and the destructive cycle of self-hate that followed.
    “Why am I not okay?” she wondered. “I have everything.”
    Her dreams on stage, television, and film all continued to come true, but satisfaction and peace eluded her. Then she met a woman who offered something she didn’t think was even possible.

    Amanda...thank you SO much for sharing the deepest part of your heart in such a relatable way! Thank you for being vulnerable publicly that will undoubtedly touch many hearts. "I can be sure that I am loved, forgiven, seen, known.....free." I am putting that on my wall as a reminder that I am His daughter. Thank you! Kathleen

    Wow, Amanda! What a powerful testimony! We as women have so much pressure to perform, look perfect, be talented, accomplish much! You offer hope to those of us who have struggled to overcome pain we carry from our pasts! Our victory is in CHRIST as is our FREEDOM! Blessed to be reminded that I too am a daughter of the KING! 💜🙏💜

    Thank you so much for this. I related to many parts of your story. Especially the self-pressure part... I've given up some things to just accept God and surround myself in His love. Thanks for sharing your story

    Amazing, praise God 💜
    My only concern, and I mean absolutely no offense to this precious child of God at all - but a Christian should not be doing a production such as, "Wicked" 🙁.

      The musical is in no way associated or affiliated with religion any capacity. "Wicked" refers to The Wicked Witch of the West-a fictional character-and the show is centered around the fictional world of Oz.
