Hollywood therapist Dr. Nicki J. Monti (seen on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Millionaire Matchmaker and more) never thought she was worthy of love. Her rollercoaster life through childhood trauma, addiction, violence, divorce, and widowhood, challenged her ability to believe she was worthwhile and good-enough to be truly loved. Finally, after learning to love herself, she found her happily, ever after.

“We can’t change history, but we can change our relationship to history. All healing involves a change of perspective. I’ve done that. Now the story I tell is through my true, confident, authentic voice. Amazingly enough, it turns out it’s never too late to be all in for love. When we have a willingness to honestly reveal ourselves – to reclaim the vulnerable, precious version of self that got left behind amidst the chaos of surviving, life promises to take us in surprising directions. Living a vulnerable, emotionally honest life is a far more stunning, exhilarating, validating, experience than I ever expected.”

Dr. Nicki J. Monti is a private practice psychotherapist and world-renown teacher, group leader, speaker, television and radio personality, and author of several books, including Stuck In the Story No More: Breaking down the Defenses that Define You and Bind You and Our Love Matters: Find It, Fix it, or Let it Go. She has long been internationally recognized both privately and on reality TV as therapist to the stars. Dr. Nicki’s main interest is identifying and learning how to dance with the patterns that guide our lives. She’s known as a straight-shooting teacher who truly believes that change is a matter of choice. Her newly released book, The Divine Traumedy of Nicki Joy: A True Grime Tale, is described as a gritty, witty, provocative, dark, sex-drugs-rock-the-boat cautionary tale about how it’s never too late to learn how to love and live.

The Children’s Health Defense ‘Moment of Truth’ 2025 Conference was in a word…powerful! Below are just some of the highlights that I wrote in my notes.

“The public is steadily awakening. We have a moment we have never had before to seize the moment of truth. - Polly Tommey

“The dead are not powerless and they are with us.” - Catherine Austin Fitts

“Peace and Understanding is what we need now.”
“How your voice is treated is a test of freedom and democracy. We survived the litmus test of our values and freedoms. It is your right to question and demand truth.”
“Religious freedom is the soil. If religious freedom fails, all freedoms fail.”
- Aaron Lewis, Pastor

“This is the biggest challenge we are facing… the enslavement of humanity.”
- Dr. Joseph Ladapo

But the most powerful hour of the conference was when the nonverbal children spoke through their mothers from an Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC) device. You could’ve heard a pin drop for an entire hour!

The first question was asked “what do you want people to understand about the 30 million nonverbal people in the world?” The first young man’s response was…”What the world needs now is love and courage. My mother never gave up on me, she gave me nothing but love and courage. What the “spellers” do is heroic. My mother cared for me alone and never gave up.”

The next question was describe what it is like to be a non-speaker? Here were the responses from the four young adults…

“It’s like dial up Internet”, “I am terrified I will never live up to my true abilities”, “It’s hard to not be taken serious as a potential grad student, but I’m in it to win it.” and the many that were especially heartbreaking were the following…

“I am trapped in this body for life.”
“I want a family someday but society won’t allow it.”
“I pray that there will be a cure someday.”

When I asked the question, what would you like us to understand about human potential? Here is what these young minds shared with us…

“They will never replace humans because they do not have a spirit.” “See us for who we are, we are in here, please consider seeing non-speakers as you see anyone.”

Bernadette and Mark go deep into what makes life worth living. Both Bernadette and Mark love the “side hustle” and they talk about how that passion let them down paths of greatness. Bern shared with Mark why was such a successful venture and what was at the heart of the company.

In Mark’s smart, timely and sharply funny new book, The Wellness Ethic: How to Thrive in an Unpredictable World (Where Stupid Things Can Happen), author and life coach Mark Reinisch challenges the outdated “work ethic” model that values success over health, happiness and soul.
His antidote: wellness ethic lifestyle design — a bold, practical approach to building a life that works for you, on your terms.

In a world that feels more chaotic, disconnected and demanding by the day, author and life coach Mark Reinisch delivers a refreshingly practical and accessible framework for a well designed life in his new book, The Wellness Ethic: How to Thrive in an Unpredictable World (Where Stupid Things Can Happen).

Backed by science and inspiring, real world experiences (not just credentials) Reinisch lays out seven essential components - mind, body, spirit, relationships, personal pursuits, professional pursuits, and lifestyle maintenance - that form the backbone of what he calls “wellness ethic lifestyle design,” a simple yet powerful concept that empowers readers to build their lives, on their own terms, around what actually brings them joy and fulfillment.

“Lifestyle design is the opposite of running on autopilot, and it is essential to your overall well-being,” Reinisch said. “With Lifestyle design, the objective is to get to the heart of what you really want in life and then make it your reality.
“It is the rare self-help book that you won’t be able to put down, unless the sheer bulk of it tires, your arms, and you drop it, Reinisch quipped.

Well it's about time! We the people are not done yet exposing the whole truth.

In a stunning shift, the CDC now says its own “vaccines don’t cause autism” claim was not evidence-based.
