In this deeply honest episode of Wake Up With Marci, we sit down with Azadeh Atzberger—a woman whose journey through addiction, emotional trauma, and healing is both heart-wrenching and powerfully inspiring.Azadeh opens up about the hidden drivers of her addiction—not the substances themselves, but the emotional pain, unmet childhood needs, and toxic relationship patterns that led her to self-medicate. At the heart of her story lies a truth many don’t talk about: sometimes, the one who hurts you the most is the one you crave. That’s trauma bonding—and Azadeh lived it.She speaks openly about the shame, silence, and confusion she carried for years, and the life-changing moment when she decided to break free and choose herself.Follow Azadeh; Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/breakfree_riseandrebuild/Follow Wake Up with Marci: Instagram: [@wakeupwithmarci] Facebook: [Wake Up with Marci] Website: [www.wakeupwithmarci.com]Don’t miss this insightful conversation that could change lives!
