In this episode of The Open Exchange with Paul Martinez, Tyler Gonzales returns to share the raw truth behind his transformation from a struggling young business owner to a community leader balancing faith, family, sobriety, and success.
We dive deep into Tyler's personal manifesto — a self-written guide that helps him stay grounded through the chaos of fatherhood, business ownership, and past trauma. Tyler opens up about facing alcohol abuse, burnout, and criticism, while building TMG Disaster Services into one of the most trusted names in emergency plumbing and mitigation services.
We discuss:
How to lead others by first leading yourself
The danger of chasing dopamine through money or substances
What it means to be a present father while working 20-hour days
Using faith and mindset shifts to rebuild from setbacks
The power of daily habits, mentors, and self-discipline
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, father, or someone on a journey of self-discovery, this episode will challenge you to go deeper, stay consistent, and redefine what success truly means.
