Summary

Before becoming a world renowned psychologist, Dr. Nadine lived a life you may be familiar with... Nadine Caridi is the real-life woman behind the Duchess of Bay Ridge, ex-wife of the infamous “Wolf of Wall Street,” Jordan Belfort. Nadine had it all: yachts, private jets, a huge estate complete with staff and more money than anyone knew what to do with. Their life looked perfect but behind the affluent lifestyle their eight-year marriage was filled with abuse, greed, drugs, and trauma.  After all her years in therapy and some serious “big girl panties” moments Nadine knew she had to leave her toxic marriage and take her children to build a new life in California.  Nadine didn’t just survive the “Wolf” she thrived! She returned to school to become a licensed therapist and is now Dr Nadine Macaluso. So many parallels and similarities are clear in Margaret and Nadine’s journey, both born to young single moms, and both have taken the difficult  hand they were dealt and played to win.  We discuss narcissists in both relationships and friendships, building confidence, establishing boundaries and mental self care... Lord knows we have few girls in our group that could benefit from this chat... this episode is literal therapy and will make you feel renewed!  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
