“We all need to reset every once in a while, and that's what this book was for me, is another step in the healing process. And a good reset to get back to that point when we may lose our way.” – Zack Knight
In today’s solo episode, Zack discusses his book, “The Legacy of Love," which was scheduled to be launched on Veteran’s Day, and how feedback from Jennifer Wright has helped to improve it. In this book, he shares his story of being an army guy who didn’t feel like he was as good as a navy seal when writing books, but he eventually decides to write one for himself and for other army guys who may not have the same level of recognition. He reflects on how his book is more than just him and wants to share about his time in the military.
