In Episode 21 of “The Belonging Place” Kylee Shields talks with Zach Hazlett, otherwise known as “The Outdoor Therapist.” 

Zak shares about his life growing up with parents who are River Guides, his love of the outdoors, why he became a therapist, and more.

One of Kylee’s favorite things about Zak is his tenderness. He isn’t afraid to get vulnerable, to cry, and to be real—this invites deep connection. You will see & hear this on this episode.

Kylee is so grateful that Zak stopped by the studio on his way up from Moab and headed to his next adventures up north.

ABOUT OUR GUEST: 

Zak Hazlett was born and has lived in Moab, Utah where he was raised by the Colorado river and has been a lifelong guide. He recognized the power of nature when it comes to healing, so he went back to school to become a Marriage Family Therapist (MFT).

Zak’s genuine love for people and the outdoors inspired him to start “Get Outside Together,” an outdoor retreat company based in Moab as a way to create experiences that bring people together to disconnect from life and reconnect with themselves and other like-minded people.

You may know Zak as the @the_outdoor_therapist on social media where he likes to share a little kindness with the world and be the kind of friend to other people that he needed during times in his life.
