Zach's Business Website: https://heinoldhomes.com Raised in church with a Sunday-morning requirement, Zach describes drifting in his teenage years into a popularity-driven crowd and a hidden double life — playing sports and getting decent grades on the surface while struggling with drugs and alcohol, even attending church while high. He talks about constant remorse, fear of being found out by his family and future wife, and escalating legal trouble — seven arrests/tickets in 2007 alone. The conversation highlights his father's non-judgmental, faith-centered support, his wife's similar background of growing up in church and returning to faith, and his rock-bottom moment on the night of August 1-2, 2008. After college loans for SIU-Carbondale were denied and he planned to sell drugs instead, he says God gave him a clear choice that night — die or get help — leading him to wake his father at 1 a.m. and enter rehab, where his journey toward restoration began.
