Heroin Survivor | I Lost Everything Before I Asked God For Help

Louis Ruggiero welcomes Zack Franck for a raw conversation about addiction recovery (5 years sober), heroin addiction, opioid addiction, overdose, relapse, treatment, faith, and rebuilding a life after years of substance abuse.

Zack also reflects on repairing his relationship with his brother, becoming someone his family and friends could trust again, and discovering that the real rewards of life after addiction are often the simple things addiction once took away: being present, dependable, and available for the people you love.

🔔 Real stories. Raw comebacks. Nothing's off the table.

Unfiltered conversations with people who've faced addiction, loss, and rock bottom — and came back stronger.
