It's as if Dorothy Parker met Nora Ephron at an AA meeting and decided to write a manifesto on generational trauma. Kodimer's journey-from growing up in LA with a restrictive mother and a detached father to surviving anxiety, depression and opioid addiction to relapsing (on repeat) to finding her way back to herself just before being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease-is captured in her collection of essays and stories which are by turns gut-wrenching, poignant and side-splitting. Aging through it all in Kodimer's (preferred Prada) shoes is not for the weak of heart but she is here to tell the world that living small, on small potatoes, is not the way. For her, the key to embracing the large life we all deserve-as full-on yams-is by helping others, embracing our flawed selves and owning and sharing our stories. For Kodimer, the truth hurts-and heals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 212\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 8.27 x 5.83 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 20, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49190521864344,"sku":"9798993620503","price":35.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0759\/8830\/4024\/files\/PN06ODtfRt9798993620503.webp?v=1780494957","url":"https:\/\/thepinkflamingobooks.myshopify.com\/products\/strong-woman-small-potato-my-story-of-addiction-and-recovery-paperback","provider":"The Pink Flamingo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
