From Marine to Doctor: How One Dad Leveraged the Military to Build a Life

On this first-ever mobile episode of Forging of Men, host and guest Taylor Thurston road-trip home from an October elk hunt, and discuss faith, fitness and outdoor adventure. Taylor shares how he used military tuition assistance to earn multiple degrees, embraced Catholic faith and family life, and reshaped his health with carnivore eating and fasting. The conversation also covers real-world preparation for backcountry hunting, the rewards of disconnecting in nature, and practical tips for fathers raising sons — all while recording from the truck after a Rocky Mountain hunt.
