MOON UNIT ZAPPA: WHEN FAMILY IS THE ADDICTION

Moon Unit Zappa talks about family trauma, addiction without substances, boundaries, forgiveness, and survival. In this Soberness episode, she shares what it’s like growing up famous, emotionally unseen, and carrying a last name that never belonged only to her.

This is not a sobriety story built around alcohol or drugs. It’s about obsession, inherited roles, and the quiet damage of growing up as an accessory inside your own family. Moon breaks down why forgiveness is often performative, how grief lingers longer than anyone admits, and what changed when she stopped needing anything from the people who hurt her.
