I want to introduce to some and reintroduce myself and my 25 year journey of triumphant survival against all odds of this disease known as H.I.V. that was designed to take my life early on. The podcast walks the listener through my ups and down with dealing with my diagnosis, living with the shame, and rising to the challenge to take control of my life by "Living Out Loud." This podcast seeks to help others who are either affected or infected by sharing intimate (never revealed) details of how I am living proof, you can beat this. From time to time, I will invite special guests to talk freely in this safe space about their experiences with this disease as well.
