Nicki J Monti: The Divine Traumedy Of Nicki Joy, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

If you've ever pleaded for love, hoped for love, mistrusted love, sabotaged love, started with lousy family-grown ideas about love, compared and despaired about love, or doubted your lovability, then The Divine Traumedy of Nicki Joy: A True Grime Taleis perfect for you.

Distinguished licensed marriage, family, and child psychotherapist, Dr. Nicki J. Monti, has long been internationally recognized both privately and on reality TV as therapist to the stars. Her road to success was rocky, though, as before that she was Nicki Joy Sholdar Bohm Berke Ruiz Monti. That this complicated name includes two fathers- biological and adoptive, and three husbands- mild-mannered and sweet; charismatic and brutal; boldly eccentric and protective, is just the start of Nicki Joy's elaborate life story. What fills in the story includes early parental neglect and abandonment, emotional incest, generational alcoholism, sex-drugs-alcohol-food addiction, brutality, and frequent edgy, questionable life choices. This is a chaotic, brutal, funny, desperate tale of a resilient woman secretly living on the edge.

Nicki Joy has lived many different lives in this one lifetime, including: the good bad/ girl, the bad / good girl, the desperate-for-love girl, the psychic, the druggie, the spiritual seeker, the girl who married her college sweetheart, the entrepreneur who launched a phone sex business, the actress, the caregiver, and the widow.

The book is a magical, painfully honest, funny, heart-wrenching story of personal transformation. It's a change-the-narrative roadmap for anyone who's ever lost hope, lost faith, struggled with self-loathing, felt marginalized, felt discarded, doubted love, looked for love in all the wrong places, decided that food, drugs, alcohol, and sex were the answers, or faked it while hoping to make it. Above all else, The Divine Traumedy of Nicki Joy is a cautionary tale with a happy ending.
