Next Third Best Third
054: Season 2 - Eddie Tait // Is Manhood Dead OR Just Misunderstood?? - The Silent Struggle of Men
This episode I sit down with my friend Eddie Tait to unpack what real manhood looks like today. Not the pop-culture version of masculinity or the tired clichés—this is about identity, legacy, and what it truly means to be present as a man, a father, and a friend. Eddie’s raw honesty and the powerful life experiences he shared made this conversation one of the most moving I’ve had.
We talked about everything from suppressed anger, emotional connection, and the epidemic of absentee fathers to how men can reclaim their voice and influence. Eddie shared how a single vision from God set him on a lifelong mission to call men into brotherhood and identity. His personal story—and the breakthroughs he's witnessed—will stir something in you. This is the kind of talk that pulls you forward, whether you're 25 or 65.
If you’re feeling stuck, unseen, or unsure how to reconnect with your purpose—or your family—this episode is for you. It's never too late to step into who you’re made to be. Stick around to the end—Eddie drops truth that every man needs to hear. And if you’ve ever questioned your impact or identity, you’re not alone. Let’s make the next third your best third.
