Louis Ruggiero welcomes Jimmy Abbate for a conversation about heroin addiction recovery, life after prison, and 25 years in recovery. Jimmy shares how childhood drinking escalated into heroin addiction, a jewelry store robbery, and 3 prison stays totaling 11 years before he began rebuilding life after addiction. But his sobriety journey involved more than putting down drugs and alcohol. Jimmy explains why he spent 16 years as a dry addict before returning to Alcoholics Anonymous, finding a sponsor, and working through 12 step recovery.
