Michael D. Madera Releses New Self-Help Memoir – Playing Tag on the Roof

 
NEW YORK - Nov. 4, 2024 - PRLog -- Harvard-Trained Psychologist Breaks New Ground in Memoir About Family Trauma, Healing, and Transformation

Playing Tag on the Roof: Recovering from a Narcissistic Family through Love and Psychedelics navigates the stark contrasts of Madera's upbringing—from his father's descent from successful investor to three-time prison inmate named by the Boston Globe as potentially the most prodigious investment con artist from Boston since Charles Ponzi, to his mother's radical transformation into a Buddhist nun who left her family behind in search of spiritual awakening. Against this backdrop of extremes, Madera and his three brothers played dangerous games of tag on their three-story house's roof, a metaphor for the precarious balance they maintained in childhood.

This pioneering work transcends traditional memoir boundaries by incorporating three distinct elements:
  • A gripping personal narrative exploring family dynamics, trauma, and healing
  • Professional psychological insights drawing from Madera's 20+ years of clinical experience
  • Original songs written and recorded over three decades, capturing raw emotional moments from age 17 through adulthood
The musical component offers a unique window into the author's emotional evolution, with songs written at pivotal moments in his healing journey. Through PlayingTagOnTheRoof.com, readers can access these recordings, experiencing the real-time emotional processing of key life events through music—from teenage longing and confusion to adult understanding and reconciliation.

The memoir tackles profound questions about human behavior and family dynamics, including why Madera's father abandoned legitimate success for a life of fraud, and how his mother's path led her to become a Buddhist nun. Through these explorations, readers gain insights into their own family patterns and potential paths to healing.

As an executive coach and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy practitioner, Madera brings a unique perspective to the growing conversation about innovative approaches to mental health and personal transformation. His work has been widely recognized in family business publications, and he continues to lead transformative retreats in Costa Rica.

Playing Tag on the Roof is available at major bookstores nationwide and online retailers. An audiobook version, narrated by the author, will be released in December 2024.
