Today, I'm joined by Brent Perkins and Eric Farewell, two incredible humans from our community who've not only crushed it as entrepreneurs but also made a tremendous impact as parents, husbands, and friends to the Brotherhood. Brent and Eric walk us through their journey of participating in and leading FRD bands, which has helped them open up about their fears and feelings and transformed their connections with their families and everyone around them. One of the main areas we focused on was challenging the stereotypical “strong man” image and defining real masculinity for men who are willing to put in the work, be vulnerable, and commit to being better Dads and husbands. Yes, men need to be strong, but true strength is being courageous enough to talk openly when we're struggling. A Wide-Ranging Conversation Through… The impact that FRD bands have had on Eric & Brent Exploring a different definition of masculinity How FRD bands help men become less rigid and hardened Two key ingredients for a thriving band of brothers How being in a band holds men accountable & skip the BS What happens when men share their lives openly in a diverse group Joining a band could be the spark to change your life Get the Full Show Notes Want access to the full show notes, including links to all resources mentioned during today's conversation?

Man, this turned out to be such a wonderful conversation with Eric Farewell. I first listened to Eric in person at a conference called CapCon just a little over a month ago. After hearing him speak, I knew he would be a fantastic guest on the show. Man, was I right. Eric is an amazing person who has been through quite a bit but has emerged from it all a better individual. He has taken all the hits from life and turned them into valuable learning experiences that have shaped him into who he is today. I absolutely loved how he describes life as a journey. We are all on the same journey, though we travel different trails and experience various good times. It is a journey without a destination, and all we have is the journey itself. Let's make the best out of every day. Eric has had to overcome terrible physical pain, which he continues to suffer from to this day, as well as the emotional pain that accompanies it. He talks about all that and more in this episode. Don't miss it, and share it far and wide. Thanks, Eric, for coming on the show!
