"Dr. Nikki Goldman has an extraordinary gift for mixing heart, humor and reflection;the way great storytellers do.”

Author, Breaking Comedy’s DNA
"Part stand-up routine, part family therapy, this sharp and tender memoir turns childhood bruises into comic gold and hard-won wisdom. Both hilarious and heartbreaking, its vignettes show how the families we survive shape who we become. With wit, warmth, and an enormous forgiving heart, the author transforms pain into laughter and relief. Family dysfunction has rarely felt this funny, or this deeply human."
Tony Calabrese

"Filled with laugh-out-loud observations and witty cultural references, there’s much to keep you reading. Take a breezy romp through the life and mind of Nikki Goldman, humorist and hypnotherapist. The author leads you, skipping and jumping through her experiences, all the highs and lows, ups and downs. You’ll shake your head in disbelief one minute and then nod in recognition the next."
