I literally would morph, when I was around these people, into something that I wasn't, and then, like I would get out of it and be like the fuck is this?
Imagine growing up in one of the most notorious families in Boston's criminal underworld. That's the reality Nicole Y. faced from birth. With a white prostitute mother and a black pimp father, her early life was anything but ordinary. In this gripping episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour', Nicole opens up about her tumultuous journey and how she found a way out through music, despite the chaos around her.
Host Paul Gilmartin guides the conversation as Nicole delves into her struggles with drugs and alcohol, her battle with PTSD, and her relentless pursuit of sobriety. But that's not all—Nicole also shares her experiences as a lesbian, her nervous breakdown, and how a steadfast belief in science helped her reimagine a universe filled with love and positivity. Performing under the name Blu Nyle, Nicole's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
If you're looking for a raw, honest, and ultimately uplifting tale of overcoming adversity, this episode is a must-listen.
