139: How Actor Zachary Levi Overcame Suicidal Ideations By Finding Self Love and Now Advocates for Mental Health


Listen Later

A lot of the time, the answers to the struggles that we go through as human beings lie in love. When we don’t love ourselves, we won’t be able to find love elsewhere, nor will we be able to find the confidence to live our lives to their full capacity. 

Zachary Levi, best known for his lead roles in Chuck and Shazam, learned this lesson the hard way. During today’s episode, Zach paints a picture of his turbulent childhood which led to adulthood plagued with mental health struggles, culminating in a rock-bottom moment where he almost took his own life. 

As Zach’s story demonstrates, radical self-love can take one out of even the darkest of spaces and into the light!
