Welcome to episode 37.

Today we're diving into some amazing business insights with Sean Van Dyke.

And Sean has been John's business coach since 2016.

We've talked about him on the show several times.

Today we're going to be hearing his backstory.

And then he drops some serious knowledge on what it takes to make the jump and create your own freedom as a business owner.

Sean has been involved in the trades for over 19 years and is a husband and father of five children.

After doubling the workforce and revenue as the CEO of his last company, he has gone all in on his own business as a consultant for contractors and a business coach.

He has worked with over 60 clients in his short time and has interviewed over 500 plus

construction and small business owners.

Sean is also working on two books and is a brand ambassador for fine home building.

The dude is an absolute beast and a wrecking ball of knowledge and we are pumped to have

him on the show.
