Phaedra Parks from The Real Housewives of Atlanta is gearing up to write her own book, which is reportedly a self-help guide. The jack of all trades has lived a full life, which has included multiple careers. Therefore, it's safe to say that she has a few bits of advice to share. Fans will soon be able to read Phaedra's book, and look forward to checking it out when she is done writing it.
Bravo fans had a love-hate relationship with Phaedra after she was fired from Bravo during season 9. The Real Housewives of Atlanta viewers will recall that she spread lies via Porsha Williams about Kandi Burruss. At the time, Phaedra vowed that she'd never be filmed by Bravo cameras again. However, the lawyer had a change of heart when it came to The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. Phaedra was back to her old self as she shared her wisdom with the other women. It also didn't hurt that Phaedra's witty one-liners were still a hit.
According to Page Six, Phaedra will talk a lot about her "depression" after she left the franchise. The mother of two's goal is to be able to help others who are dealing with depression, so they can get to the other side after living with mental health issues. Phaedra told the outlet that the book would be part memoir and part meditative guide, and that she will share the affirmations she used throughout her own journey. Viewers recently saw her share a bible verse with the other women on RHUGT, after a hard day, and this seemed to comfort her. Phaedra revealed that it was a "dark time" for her when she left the show. She also noted that she felt like she had PTSD from doing the series.
It seems like Phaedra's time on The Real Housewives of Atlanta may have been a bit traumatic near the end, but the 48-year-old is extremely excited to be releasing her own non-fiction work. Phaedra starred in the franchise for seven consecutive seasons, and her departure was perceived as a loss by many fans. Viewers were thrilled to see her on Bravo's newest spinoff, and pleased that she was doing so well. Phaedra is convinced that the power of prayer and positive thinking helped her to overcome her issues, and she is hoping that her book resonates with others.
While The Real Housewives of Atlanta fans may not see Phaedra holding a peach, they were happy to have her back for at least a moment. Once her new book is released, followers will be able to read some of Phaedra's personal stories. She hopes to give back to those who need help the most, and destigmatize mental health issues.
