Ep 13 Mind-Body Burnout and Career Rebirth with Zack Arnold From Chronic Pain to Passion

    • Alternative Health

If are someone who’s creative or passionate about your career, have you ever had an experience where, right as you were about to make a big career move or achieve some symbol of success, you were hit by a wave of symptoms like chronic pain or fatigue or burnout? If so, you’re not alone — and today we’re gonna explore why that is and how to navigate this with my guest Zack Arnold.



Zack is an award-winning Hollywood editor & producer whose credits include Cobra Kai, Empire, Burn Notice, and Glee.  He’s also a career coach, a two-time American Ninja Warrior, and the creator of the Optimize Yourself program & podcast.



Zack strongly believes that it’s possible for all creative professionals to love what they do for a living...but not at the expense of their health, their relationships, or
their sanity. That’s why via his Optimize Yourself program he provides them with the strategies, resources, mindsets, and supportive community to help them confidently discover their own unique clear path towards the more balanced, productive, and fulfilling life that they deserve.

In a nutshell, Zack is Tim Ferriss meets Ted Lasso...minus the mustache.



Zack has spoken across the country at numerous events and conventions about optimizing creativity and work-life balance as well as the craft of editing. His work has been featured in publications such as National Public Radio, Forbes, The Huffington Post, Variety, The Telegraph, and I Will Teach You to Be Rich as well as numerous podcasts.



I became a fan of Zack’s way before I became a therapist, back when I was a video editor working in reality TV and a friend turned me onto his first podcast, Fitness in Post, which was about a topic that nobody else was really talking about then — a radical idea of maintaining your wellbeing while working in the brutal field of film and TV post-production.



I’m delighted to share our conversation about mind-body burnout and career rebirth.
