In a recent documentary, part of MTV's series 'Asian ytimessä.doc', titled 'Rikkinäiset äidit', she opens up about her tumultuous past and her journey to sobriety.

Sävikari reveals that despite her childhood dream of becoming a mother, achieving this dream seemed increasingly distant due to her struggles with addiction. Having battled her substance use since the age of nine, she faced significant challenges in her life.

In her story, Sävikari discusses how her experiences with addiction and treatment have shaped her perspective on life and motherhood. While she faced the stigma often associated with substance abuse, her journey highlights the importance of support and rehabilitation. She emphasizes the role of healthcare services in providing necessary support for individuals dealing with addiction, especially during significant life events such as pregnancy. Her story serves as a powerful testament to resilience and the possibility of starting anew, even after facing severe challenges.
