Zach had everything according to the societal norms chart in today’s America; the nice house, cars, high-paying tech job, first class flights, and expensive coffee. But to him, something was missing. Deep down, Zach felt the primal urge to pursue a life closer to the land, the wild, and the unknown. Unlike most people who go through life tucking this uncontrollable itch into a dark hiding place, he did something about it. Then, he wrote a book about it.
In this episode, Zach joins me for a lively chat about his insane transition from corporate suburban hell to an off-grid community in the mountains of Idaho. Here, he started a family, learned to hunt, trap, and pursue a life of self-reliance in wild places. We talk about his new book, Turning Feral, and how his life has changed for the better. We also discuss why so many Americans are trapped in his former life, pursuing what society says is the righteous path but living it with an empty soul. And, how they can change it. Don’t miss this episode!
