Hey Heal Squad! Our friend Zachary Levi is back and honestly, this may be the most grounded and open we’ve ever heard him. He’s a brand-new dad, he’s building Wyldwood Studios from the ground up in Texas, and he’s going deeper into his faith, healing, and purpose than ever before. Zach takes us all the way back to being three years old and feeling, deep in his soul, that he was put here to make people laugh and help others. From there, we get into the bigger conversation so many people are quietly having right now: Why does it feel so hard to know what’s true anymore? Zach breaks down what he calls the two sides of finding truth: empathy and logic and why he believes we’ve lost the ability to really hear each other. But the heart of this episode is what happens when Zach opens up about his 2017 mental breakdown, the season where he didn’t want to live and didn’t understand why. He shares how therapy finally taught him something he’d never learned before: how to love himself. We talk about unresolved trauma, how emotional pain can actually live in the body, and why he now believes every hardship can become an invitation to heal, grow, and go deeper with God.And then he says something I honestly haven’t stopped thinking about since we recorded this: that we are “infinitely valuable… and entirely unimportant.” Trust us… you’re going to want to hear the way he explains that one. Enjoy!

HEALERS & HEAL LINERS

You can't outrun unhealed trauma. It lives in the body. It makes you sick on every level — physical, emotional, mental, spiritual — and it keeps showing up until you stop saying "I got it" and finally sit with what's actually there.
Every hardship is an invitation. The breakdowns, the breakups, the moments that bring you to your knees — Zach believes those aren't punishment. They're God asking you to come closer.
You are infinitely valuable, and entirely unimportant. You matter more than you'll ever know, AND you don't have to carry it all alone. Your only job is to take the next step.
