Zach speaks about his mother's recent passing:
"My mom died in February. She'd been sick for a long time. But the experience of going through not only her illness but also her death was easily the most profound experience of my life. I was so lucky to be able to be with her. . . . When we decided to go the hospice route it lifted the visitation restrictions, and I was able to go be with her. I sat with her for five days and held space for her. . . . [I]t was such a gift. I will say, it was the catalyst for simply the most profound transformation that I've ever witnessed or experienced. I've never been with somebody through the dying process. It was just her and me in her room.
"I spent a lot of years resenting the position that I held in my mom's life. My dad died when I was very young, and so I became in some ways responsible for my mom emotionally and I really came to resent that. And I always knew, on some level, that it would come down to her and me. I don't know why. There was something from a very young age where I always knew that I would be responsible. And I was, I was really responsible for her in many ways in her life. And through all of that resentment, when it actually came down to it, it was truly the greatest honor of my life to be able to show up in that way. It was profound, and it was beautiful."
