How One Principal is Making Kids LOVE School Again

In this inspiring episode of American Glutton, Ethan Suplee sits down with school principal and viral motivator Zac Bowermaster. Zac shares how a personal battle with anxiety and depression reshaped his approach to leadership, connection, and community. From fist bumps in the hallways to “Protein with the Principal,” Zac’s story is packed with lessons on empathy, resilience, and building a culture where everyone feels seen.


They also dive into work-life rhythm, overcoming obsessive tendencies, and why small, consistent habits matter more than lofty one-time goals. A heartfelt, practical conversation that will leave you motivated to lead with purpose.
