My Pretty Baby: Seeking Truth and Finding Healing--A Memoir
My Pretty Baby: Seeking Truth and Finding Healing--A Memoir
For fans of Educated and The Glass Castle, a former music industry insider's journey of healing--from childhood trauma through spiritual practices and self-discovery to a place of peace--with some incredible celebrity encounters along the way. A transformative memoir chronicling Wendy Correa's journey to heal from childhood traumas, including the death of her father, emotionally distant siblings, and a violent, alcoholic stepfather, My Pretty Baby is a story of not belonging and, ultimately, of the healing that comes from building a chosen family. After escaping her turbulent home life, Wendy's path of self-discovery takes her through Buddhism, meditation, plant medicine, yoga, Native American spirituality, 12-Step programs, and psychotherapy. Along the way, she has extraordinary experiences: singing "Give Peace a Chance" on the Rose Bowl stage with rock 'n' roll royalty, attending AA meetings with legendary musicians while working at A&M and Geffen Records, and meeting her musical hero, Joni Mitchell. Native American sweat lodge and vision quest ceremonies further strengthen her sobriety and mental well-being. Her life takes a new turn when she moves to Aspen and becomes a radio DJ and assistant to gonzo writer Hunter S. Thompson. There, she meets her future husband and begins to build the family she always longed for--but despite her newfound peace, she is repeatedly drawn back into her family's dysfunction. It's only after her mother's death that Wendy uncovers a painful family secret that finally answers her lifelong question: What really happened to my family?
