About the show

Hi I'm Zack! If you want to make things that matter, I want to help you. I’m a former award-winning Hollywood film editor, producer, and documentary director turned writer, podcaster, and creative career coach who loves having deep conversations with interesting, highly creative humans to better understand how we can survive and thrive in this crazy, chaotic world we call reality. I’m excited to share with you the hundreds of deep, honest, and vulnerable conversations I’ve had over the years to help you navigate the next act of work and life on your terms, build genuine relationships, better manage your well-being, overcome your fears and limiting beliefs, and build better habits and systems so you can stay focused on creating sh*t that matters. You're in the right place if: You live to create. Your work isn't just a job but an expression of who you are.You create to live. Your livelihood depends on your creativity.You love making cool shit. Whether you identify as introverted or neurodivergent (or both, like me)... No matter if you're a misfit, a rebel, an outlier, or a troublemaker... If you've been called weird, nerdy, dorky, quirky, or awkward... Or if you’re an over-thinker, procrastinator, or perfectionist… You are welcome here. 😊
