She shares how she discovered music, rose to become a world-class musician, founded her own music school, and transformed into a powerhouse stage speaker. Her story of overcoming unimaginable adversity is one of the most inspiring I've ever heard.

Today Patricia is a successful entrepreneur who owns four companies. These companies include a coaching business, a SaaS tech company, a music business with online and brick-and-mortar components, and an educational institution serving hundreds of students across 14 countries.

Join us as we discuss Patricia's struggles when building her business and how she overcame them, her transformative experience at Tony Robbins' Business Mastery course, learning about online marketing, the importance of mentorship in her journey, her faith, and much more.

In today’s episode of The Golden Mic Podcast, I sit down with Tanner Wendell. Tanner was married, had a kid, divorced, and battled addiction all before age 30. He then left corporate America, found sales & entrepreneurship, and completely turned his life around. He went from Level 1 Help Desk Geek to Product Management Leader during the first decade of his career and is now the founder of Horizon OS.

In this episode, Tanner discusses the challenges of balancing different aspects of life such as family, faith, and career. He describes his daily routine and how he manages to incorporate these aspects into his life. He started Family OS with his wife, Kate, to serve other families who want to be intentional about their marriage and family life, by creating their own Family Operating System.

Tanner and I dive into his sales philosophy, where he discusses the importance of understanding and overcoming sales resistance and the moral obligation to assist clients genuinely. He also dives into the common issues salespeople face.

Tanner also discusses his personal philosophy on integrating faith and everyday activities. He shares his parenting approach, focusing on instilling strong Christian values in his children and ensuring they grow up with a solid foundation in their faith.

I just finished day 20 of the “30 Days to 6 Figures” where I talked about How I Signed A $60k Client!

Watch replays plus get all the worksheets and resources here: https://joshforti.com/30days

Here's What I Got Done

Guys, I signed a $60k client today(!!!) and on the live I broke down how I:

- Adjusted the offer in real time ON the sales call.
- Pitched & closed the new offer at $60k.
- Got paid $10k upfront, $10k in 30 days, 30% cut of backend.

Big Takeaway

Today proves why you must MASTER psychology and operating in principles.

If I would have followed how most people sell, I would not have been able to do what I did today.

I would have literally lost a $60,000 deal!

If you watch the stream I explain this in further detail, but if you want to change your life, which you can do, learn how to sell correctly.
