An author site for I Nailed It. Period., a memoir that uses the ten steps of a nail appointment to explore addiction, bipolar disorder, motherhood, loss, faith, and healing.

Why it surfaced

Dr. Phat turns a familiar beauty ritual into an unusually specific structure for telling a life story: removal, soaking, filing, building, curing, and the final reveal become stages of becoming whole. The site also has a clear public release date, advance-reader program, speaking invitations, and a strong, direct voice aimed at women who have survived difficult seasons.
