️In this Get Obsessed Podcast episode, host Julie Lokun, JD and Mika Altidor sit down with Dr. Nadine Macaluso, the real-life ex-wife of Jordan Belfort, famously portrayed by Margot Robbie in The Wolf of Wall Street.
While Hollywood glamorized the excess, Dr. Nadine reveals the hidden truth — the emotional and psychological abuse, manipulation, and trauma that came with life behind the movie.
