Overview
“Daughter of a Porn King is a powerful, transformational story of a little girl's incredible journey from sharing cartoons and Lucky Charms with Traci Lords to becoming a game-changing leader who is a catalyst for excellence and teaches others to live with purpose and conviction. Dr. Glickman is the personification of perseverance and is living proof that, regardless of circumstances, anyone can have an inordinate impact on our world and positively affect not only those who share this lifetime with us, but also those of lifetimes to come.”
Steve Olsher, Author of USA Book News' "Self-Help Book of the Year," Journey To You: A Step-by-Step Guide to Becoming Who You Were Born to Be.
“This is such a critical message for our times. It not only makes sense of the difficult journey but makes it so much easier. Cynthia’s story is the epitome of this and one that people need to hear! This book so beautifully captures this and delivers it in a way that is both gorgeous and hilarious.”
Catherine Rourke, Award winning author and editor
“Some kids had lucky charms for breakfast; we had porn stars with our breakfast…”
This true story resembles a colorful Playboy version of "That ‘70’s Show," with the exploitation of women as seen through the eyes of a young girl. The author bravely describes a world of deception and manipulation, without shame or regret, along with its destructive impact as she falls victim to the illusion of perfection, poor body image and even bulimia.
Through determination, humor and insight, the author demonstrates that everyone has the power to choose to become a victim or to become a victor. Readers will laugh and cry with her on her journey toward self-empowerment, as this former “fatty” trades the weight and eating disorders for bodybuilding trophies and the low self-worth for Ph.D.’s and multimillion-dollar business success, discovering her true beauty, genuine self and effervescent soul all before the age of 35.
“We are here to live our life’s purpose. We are beautiful and divine just as we are.
What I discovered along this journey is that the relationship to ourselves is the most important relationship we can have. By being in love with ourselves, we are then able to give out more love. From this point, we step into our power. The journey back home to yourself is discovering that you are worthy, that you are of value, that just being you is good enough and knowing that you are your own true love.” – Dr. Cynthia Glickman
