Julia Deitchman: From Refugee Roots to Recovery Resilience

I really credit recovery to so much of my understanding of human behavior and my own nature, because it really opened up my understanding of like, how history really affects people in the present.
Julia Deitchman's journey is a compelling testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit. Born into a refugee family with a haunting legacy from the Holocaust, Julia faced unique challenges that shaped her path to recovery. In this episode of the Illuminate Recovery Podcast, hosts Curt Neider and Shelley Mangum engage in a heartfelt conversation with Julia as she shares her deeply personal story.

She also touches on the unique needs of medical professionals in recovery and the added pressures brought on by the pandemic.
Julia's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding peace, connecting with one's roots, and the importance of seeking support. This episode offers listeners a rich tapestry of insights and hope, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction or interested in the transformative power of recovery.
