Part therapy, part stand-up comedy, part "did she really just say that?" From golden child burnout to toxic marriages, frog poison ceremonies to emotional breakthroughs, this is your candid, darkly funny field guide to reclaiming your life from the chaos of a narcissistic parent.

Escaping the Narcissistic Nest: Your Flight Path to Self-Worth is the work of a golden child and scapegoat in a narcissistic family who teamed up together to heal and help others. They've had a front-row seat to every manipulative trick in the book.

From surviving a narcissistic father to marrying narcissists (because apparently, they thought, why not make this a double feature?), they share the raw, ridiculous, and sometimes downright revolting realities of healing -- including that one time Riley soiled herself during a frog poison ceremony and another when she puked her guts out on Ayahuasca. (Spoiler: spiritual enlightenment is messy.)
This book blends heartfelt storytelling, research-backed insights, and biting humor to help you:

• Recognize the toxic patterns you grew up with

• Understand the emotional roles (hello, golden child, and scapegoat)

• Set boundaries that actually stick

• Begin the messy, hilarious, liberating process of healing

If you've ever wondered why your family gatherings feel like emotional war zones, or if you've felt guilty for walking away, this book will help you see you're not crazy -- you were raised in crazy. And you can get out.

Because no matter how dysfunctional your nest, your wings still work.
*Readers like you say:
"I felt seen in ways I didn't expect, especially when she talked about family dynamics and the emotional chaos that comes with them. It's messy, it's raw, it's funny, and it somehow makes healing feel less lonely. This isn't your typical self-help book... it's like having a brutally honest friend who also happens to be hilarious and wise."
