I think all addiction springs from some sort of childhood trauma.
What happens when a child of rock 'n' roll royalty grows up amidst fame and chaos? Mackenzie Phillips knows all too well. In this riveting episode of Dopey, Mackenzie opens up about her tumultuous life journey, marked by soaring highs in Hollywood and devastating lows in addiction. Born to John Phillips of The Mamas and the Papas, Mackenzie's early life was anything but ordinary.
She starred in iconic productions like 'American Graffiti' and 'One Day at a Time', but behind the scenes, her life was spiraling out of control with drugs and trauma. Mackenzie doesn't hold back as she shares candid stories of her struggles with IV cocaine, heroin, and the harsh realities of relapse and recovery. Her story sheds light on how deeply trauma can intertwine with addiction and how crucial honesty is for healing.
This episode isn't just a recount of her past; it's a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, no matter how dark the journey gets. Tune in for an episode that's raw, real, and ultimately inspiring.
