What if your greatest transformation began with a pot of broth and a commitment to take full responsibility for your life?

In this episode, Zack Langlois sits down with Justin LaRue, a multidisciplinary holistic health practitioner and creator of a high-integrity bone broth line. But this conversation goes far beyond food—it’s a powerful exploration of emotional resilience, radical ownership, and the lifelong pursuit of personal truth.

Justin shares how his path through physical wellness opened the door to deeper self-inquiry, and how bone broth—simple, ancestral, nutrient-dense—became both a tool for healing and a metaphor for building something nourishing from life’s discarded parts.

Justin invites listeners to look beyond surface-level wellness and into the messy, rewarding work of becoming someone they can be proud of—moment by moment, meal by meal. Whether you’re just beginning your health journey or refining your path, this episode will meet you where you are.

This one is for anyone who’s ready to stop outsourcing their health, reclaim their narrative, and commit to a more intentional life.
