From tuna and mustard to 240 loans a year — Josh Sigman’s story is wild. But what’s even wilder? How he helped me 3X my income, coached me through nursing a newborn, and changed the entire trajectory of my career.

I was six years into the mortgage business when I met Josh Sigman — exhausted, on the loan rollercoaster, and clinging to hustle as my only strategy. What I didn’t know then is that Josh would completely change my life.

This episode is incredibly special to me. Josh was my coach, mentor, and motivator — the one who called me out, lifted me up, and helped me go from a $300K-a-year earner to a $1M rainmaker.

What we talk about:

✨ How Josh built his business (and rebuilt his life after losing it all)

✨ The exact strategy he taught me to close 220+ loans in one year — with a newborn

✨ Why delegation is the choke point for so many top producers

✨ What it really means to lead with value in every relationship

✨ How he’s coaching 48 agents while still closing 20 loans/month

Josh doesn’t hold back. This episode is a masterclass in scaling as a technician and trust builder — and if you’re feeling like the industry has beat you down lately, this is the perspective shift you need.
