Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Radical Love is the debut memoir from actor Zachary Levi (Shazam!,?American Underdog,?The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,?Chuck), which shares his emotional journey through a lifetime of crippling anxiety and depression to find joy, gratitude, and ultimate purpose.
Facing the scars of childhood trauma and the voices in his head that told him he would never be enough, Zac recounts the raw yet honest behind-the-scenes story of:
his family life, career successes, and personal disappointments.This all led Zac to rock bottom and landed him in a therapy center, where he learned to address the underlying issues that preceded his downward spiral. With vulnerability and humor, Zac relates the valuable lessons and insights he's learned so that you can rise from the ashes of trauma and pursue a meaningful life of gratitude.
Radical Love combines witty, touching, and powerful commentary with relatable illustrations to help you on your own path toward mental wellness.
One afternoon, actor Zachary Levi couldn't bring himself to open his front door. Where are you going, Zac? Where are you taking us? What are we doing here? But he wasn't worried about what other people might do to him, he was worried about what he might do to himself. And that realization terrified him. Here, Zac shares his story of grappling with a lifetime of sometimes crippling anxiety and depression, including a one-month stint in a trauma therapy center. With honesty and humor, he relates his healing journey to mental health, and shares valuable lessons and insights he gained along the way. Through sharing his experiences, Zac hopes his listeners will come to believe what he had to discover for himself: that they can choose a lifestyle of wellness, receive love from others, and learn to love themselves.
