Zach Westerbeck speaks, writes and advocates for mental health. Zach most often works with 18-24-year-olds, and his book, You're Not Alone: The Only Book You'll Ever Need to Overcome Anxiety and Depression, can feel like an introduction to your own brain. Dusty and Tommy talk to Zach about why we forget that the brain is part of the body, Zach's own battle with suicidal thoughts and depression, and how understanding our brains can make life so much more complete.
