In this episode of the Mythos Podcast, we sit down with Zachary, the founder of Unwell Barbell. A brand built on the belief that everyone carries an invisible barbell, a weight most people never see but silently struggle to lift.
This conversation dives deep into the reality of mental health, the battles fought behind closed doors, and the strength it takes to speak up when life gets heavy. Zach opens up about his journey through depression, hidden struggles, and the moments that pushed him to build a community-driven brand that exists to carry the weight with you, not for you, not instead of you, but beside you.
We explore what it means to face your demons, break cycles, and take action when your life demands a change. Zach shares the stories, the pain, the breakthroughs, and the faith that shaped his mission. This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt alone in their battle, for anyone wrestling with addiction, mental health, or identity, and for anyone who needs a reminder that community is not just support, it’s survival.
Unwell Barbell stands as a message, a movement, and a reminder that you are not meant to carry your weight in silence. Healing begins when you speak. Strength begins when you let others step into the fight. And community begins when we choose to lift each other, one struggle at a time.
If you’re navigating darkness, rebuilding your life, or fighting to become who you know you’re meant to be, this episode will speak to you.
