About this listen

Pretty Mess meets #Girlboss in this part memoir, part entrepreneurial manifesto from The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Margaret Josephs as she chronicles her rise from chaos to confidence, business success, and reality TV fame.

Known to fans as “The Marge,” Margaret Josephs is outspoken, stylish, and unapologetically herself. On screen, she’s a fan-favorite Housewife, successful businesswoman, and lifestyle maven. Off screen, her journey to success was anything but glamorous. Born to young immigrant parents and raised by a single, free-spirited mother after escaping an abusive home, Margaret grew up without structure, stability, or a roadmap for the future.

Through destructive relationships, career setbacks, and personal reinvention, Margaret learned to survive—and then thrive—by sheer grit. In this revealing book, she shares how she turned adversity into ambition, building a lifestyle brand, navigating business with family, and carving out space as an uncompromising woman in a male-dominated world.

Along the way, Margaret spills unforgettable stories from her personal life, including the son viewers never knew about, life-changing advice from Joan Rivers, a notorious rock-star rendezvous, and the affair that ended her marriage but ultimately led to happiness on her own terms. Written with humor, honesty, and signature bravado, this memoir is both a behind-the-scenes look at reality TV fame and a rallying cry for women who want more.

Margaret is, as expected, her true self, and gets the opportunity to share in more detail stories of what’s made her who she is. She shares with us really valuable lessons she’s learned. It’s lovely, and funny, and candid. I hope she writes another one!

A warm honest and intriguing insight into the life of a little lost blonde girl, with pigtails, and big dreams, to a successful beautiful blonde haired lady, still with pigtails, who really has been on journey worth writing about.
I was touched Marg by the honesty, the pain, the heartache , the loss, the struggle, that you turned into the loved, the beloved, the successful, the strong, the happy and amazing life you have made.
I find the most adorable part of the book, is the fact you have made, and have surrounded yourself with a massive family self made family, that works for you. You and Joe have found a way to fill your home full of love, joy and laughter. The vision of you holding Lexi's leg, whilst Joe filmed the birth of her baby, showed me the real Mrs Margaret Josephs. I would be honoured to be called your friend, and you deserve all the luck in the world for your future endeavours Marg, you really are one beautiful soul. x

somehow I find I like her less. I guess I feel like it can be very bragging at times. I'm not sure if she could manage to tell us how EXTREMELY mature she always was one more time.
