511: Burn the Boats: How a 34-Year-Old Teacher Became a 2x Golden Door Winner Tanner Sewell

Tanner Sewell spent 12 years as a high school English teacher and wrestling coach in Washington D.C. At 34, he bought a one-way ticket to Phoenix with no sales experience, no roofing knowledge, and a busted 2004 Toyota Tacoma with no air conditioning. Two years later, he's a back-to-back Golden Door winner and co-owner of Palco Roofing. In this episode, Hunter sits down with Tanner to unpack the three keys to sustainable high performance: a clear why, conditioning yourself through hard things, and eliminating distractions. Tanner breaks down why income generating activities at the right time of day matter more than scripts, why he knocked 7 days a week his first year, and what he had to unlearn after a decade in the classroom.
