In this episode of The Modern Man, I'm joined by Eric Taylor, the "anti-dusty" husband, girl dad, and content creator who's helping men shake off the dust and become the men they're meant to be. Today, Eric talks about his experience recovering from addiction, overcoming fear and imposter syndrome, and realizing what it means to be a man, husband, and father after growing up without a dad.

Listen to Eric break down his definition of a dusty man, the benefits he's seen from his healing journey, and how he's showing up as an (anti-dusty) example for his two young daughters. Eric also shares how he gained healthy coping skills and genuine confidence as a man who used to be held back by fear and doubt.

"That dust is ignorance, it's laziness, it's arrogance, it's all the lack of self-control that came with not addressing your true emotions and your true self as a man," Eric says. So, tune in, shake off the dust, and get to moving forward as the men you were born to be.

"The scariest things were doubt and fear before, but now I know what I'm working for, I know what I'm living for, and I'm going to give my all to it." – Eric Taylor
