What happens when the one thing you've built your entire identity around collapses? For founder and designer Taylor Draper, that collapse wasn't just a business failure, it was a life-threatening crisis that pushed him to the brink of suicide. Growing up without a father, Taylor programmed himself to believe that his worth was directly tied to his achievements, a dangerous mindset that led him to build a successful brand but a fragile sense of self.
In this raw and deeply vulnerable conversation, Taylor Draper, the founder of the men's mental health movement Inherent Self, reveals the inside story of how losing a $20 million investment deal forced him to confront the lie he had been living. This is a story about the dangerous link between a man's work and his worth, and the difficult journey to find who you are when everything you've built is taken away.
