In this powerful episode of Lykken on Lending, I’m joined by Amir Syed—top-producing loan officer, dynamic coach, and founder of Go Coaching—for a conversation that’s as inspiring as it is tactical. From fleeing war-torn Iran as a child to becoming a mortgage industry leader, Amir shares the story of how faith, grit, and community shaped his journey. We discuss the mindset that drives success, the value of mentorship, and the framework behind his Mortgage Mastery Ladder—a coaching approach that’s transforming loan officers nationwide. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or just getting started, this episode is a reminder that “iron sharpens iron”—and the right people, principles, and practices can unlock your full potential.
