In this heart-wrenching and inspiring episode of The Begin Again Podcast, host Gary Menkes sits down with Gabe Cohen, a man whose journey through addiction and multiple incarcerations has led him to become a passionate advocate for recovery.

Gabe shares his raw and personal experiences, from getting arrested at 15 for a shooting incident and grappling with cocaine addiction, to facing homelessness and numerous stints in prison.

He talks about hitting rock bottom when a near-fatal health crisis became a turning point, leading him to a path of recovery and service. Gabe is now the founder of Discovery Cafe and author of 'The Peer Recovery Community Organization,' where he demonstrates how one's past does not have to define their future.

Tune in to hear Gabe's incredible story of resilience, transformation, and his unwavering commitment to helping others navigate their own recovery journeys.
