For the Love of Family: Zorina Pritchett on Games, Resilience, and Purpose

In this heartfelt episode of A Life Worth Being, host Sue Willoughby talks with Zorina Pritchett, a disabled Army veteran, caregiver, and founder of Zochey, a unique game company focused on fostering connection, family bonding, and digital balance. Zorina shares the remarkable story of how a vivid dream led her to create Zomatic Shift, a quick-play card game designed to bring families together away from screens. As a caregiver for her brother, who experienced a brain stroke, and a grandmother passionate about giving kids meaningful interactions, Zorina speaks candidly about resilience, self-compassion, and finding purpose later in life. Through her advocacy for digital balance and inclusive play, she inspires us to think beyond ourselves, cherish moments of connection, and take bold steps toward our dreams, no matter our age.
