What if going broke was the best thing that ever happened to you..?

Hey there, Rainmakers!

In this episode, I sat down with the one and only Sean Herrero — a total technician turned $100M+ loan officer who’s done it his own damn way. Sean gets real about going broke in 2016, walking away from a cushy wholesale job, and rebuilding from the ground up as a solo LO with a serious mission: to do right by people, build trust through transparency, and prove that being yourself is your biggest business edge.

We talk about what it really looks like to scale as a control freak, how to embrace your own archetype (even if you’re an introvert), and why Mortgage Coach became his not-so-secret weapon. Plus, Sean opens up about how going all-in on authenticity changed everything — from attracting the right clients to reclaiming time with his kids.

This one’s for every loan officer who’s ever thought “I’m not a salesperson.” You don’t have to be. You just have to be YOU.

What We Talked About

✨ How losing it all became Sean’s turning point

✨ Why he refuses to “dumb it down” to fit in — and thrives because of it

✨ The hidden power of introverts in this business

✨ Scaling as a technician without sacrificing control or client experience

✨ Sean’s go-to script when clients start rate shopping

✨ His real reason for finally deciding to grow his team in 2025

✨ The surprising truth his son told him that brought him to tears

Are you ready to make it rain? Let’s do this!
