    On today's episode, Frankie Medina, a phlebotomist & HIV counselor in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area, bravely opens up about his long-term substance use addiction and recovery journey. He discusses the lessons he learned along the way that not only helped himself get clean, but others who are currently struggling with substance use.
