Description
Tanner Chidester is an entrepreneur, business coach, and online marketing expert who has generated well over $100 million in sales by helping coaches and service providers grow their businesses. Starting as a fitness coach after a lifetime in athletics, Tanner built multiple successful companies by applying the same principles of discipline, consistency, and personal growth that first transformed his life as a teenager. In this episode, Travis shares some of his biggest takeaways from their conversation, covering confidence, business, success, trust, and the search for meaning beyond financial achievement.

Confidence is earned through action. Every challenge you overcome creates evidence that you can figure out the next one.
