Inside an Alcoholic’s Chaotic Life | Sexually Abused, Abandoned & Addicted

Marci was just six years old when she had to choose between safety and her own mother. Raised in a home filled with alcoholism, abuse, and betrayal, her childhood was a nightmare. She was groomed, sexually abused, abandoned emotionally by both parents — and began drinking at age 12. By her 20s, she was spiraling through toxic relationships, addiction, and the pain of unhealed trauma. But everything changed after one final breaking point: a DUI that forced her to confront her past, her drinking, and the woman she was becoming. In this raw, emotional conversation, Marci shares how she broke the cycle, found sobriety, wrote a book (Chaos to Clarity), and is now helping others reclaim their lives. Her story is a powerful reminder: you are not your trauma — and healing is possible. 📘 Marci’s Book: Chaos to Clarity 📲 Follow Marci: @WakeUpWithMarci 🎧 Subscribe for more stories of transformation and recovery. #TraumaRecovery #ChildhoodAbuseSurvivor #AddictionRecovery #SoberLife #AARecovery #DUIRecovery #GenerationalTrauma #SurvivorStory #WakeUpWithMarci #ChaosToClarity #MentalHealthAwareness #SobrietyJourney #WomenInRecovery #AlcoholicMother #HealingJourney #RiseAbovePodcast #KevinLanning Learn more about your ad choices.
