In this powerful episode, host Trunnis Goggins II sits down with Prudence Vector (a pseudonym to protect her privacy), author of the upcoming book Heroine (releasing September 27th).

Prudence courageously shares her story of working in the medical field while struggling with substance use, the stigma surrounding addiction in healthcare, and her long road to recovery.
