Infos

Growing up in an Italian American family in Queens, New York, in the 70s, Francesca Miracola was trained from an early age to keep up appearances at all costsbut behind closed doors, her parents toxic marriage served as a blueprint for dysfunction. So when she met Jason Axcel at a bar as a twentysomething, she ignored all the red flagsand there were plenty of themand dove right in, normalizing his emotional and physical abuse just like shed learned to do. She even married and had two children with him. But something in her clicked one night when Jason strolled out the door after a vicious fight that left her degraded on the floor, and she decided she was done.Except Jason wouldnt let her go. Even after they finally divorced and Francesca fell in love with someone else, her ex-husband was keen enough to recognize that she was the same broken girl hed met a decade earlier, and he exploited that fact at every turn. He called the cops to her home with bogus claims; he bombarded her with provoking emails and texts; he stalked her every move; and, worst of all, he used their little boys as pawns in his campaign. Then he went for the jugular and sued her for custody. But Francesca was stronger than hed given her credit for.Raw and illuminating, I Got It from Here is one womans story of saving herself and her children from the grips of a sociopath posing as a family manand from the inherited trauma passed down by her own family of birthwhile learning to trust in the inner voice thats been trying to guide her all along.
