Ep. 156 From Green Beret to M.D: Breaking the Rules of Healing with Dr. Zach Wright

Jessica Smarro Episode 156

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Zach Wright, a former Green Beret turned physician at Framework Wellness, who brings an unconventional yet deeply practical approach to health and healing.

We explore how Zach’s experience as a Special Forces medic shaped his philosophy of medicine into one rooted in curiosity, adaptability, and going upstream to find the real cause of suffering. We talk about what happens when we stop chasing “the one right answer,” how black-and-white thinking blocks our healing, and why true health means learning to live in the gray.

You’ll hear us unpack everything from protein, sleep, and stress to the mindset shifts that move you from surviving to thriving. Zach shares small, high-impact actions you can start today to reset your nervous system, lower stress, and support your body’s natural ability to heal.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the “right” things but still not feeling your best, this conversation will give you hope, direction, and a few laughs along the way.
