One thing you can count on in life is the pendulum will swing.  You’ll find love, and lose it.  You’ll have money, and go broke.  You’ll try something and fail.  You’ll show up year one as spouse of the year only to get penalized in year 5 for allowing things to fall by the wayside.  There’s a solution to keep from getting knocked down by the swinging of the proverbial axe in life………..Masterminds.  

This week, Patrick takes a deep dive one-on-one with you to share the reason he joined a couple of Masterinds.  It wasn’t something that happened overnight, but a gradual realization that he had hit a ceiling.  This week, Patrick flashes back almost to the date of when he was laid off from his job as CFO of a regional Mexican restaurant chain. It was Christmas week, and he was dead broke with baby number 4 on the way.  Fast-forward to 7 years later…..Life looks very different.

How To Get Involved:

Patrick Bolanos is a serial entrepreneur, business owner, and CEO of Trailer King Builders in Houston, Texas.

He was raised in Nicaragua, exposed to extreme poverty, and also had the fortune of being exposed to life in the United States traveling back and forth to both countries. 

After college, Patrick’s career took him into the corporate world of banking where he learned the important lessons of understanding what you’re selling and why it’s important to believe in it. 

Back in December of 2017, Patrick was fired from his job as a CFO for a Restaurant Group.  With only $500 to his name, rent due, his wife, 3 children at home, and one on the way, he was forced to figure out how to pull his family out of this financial abyss that was strangling his life. 

With no knowledge of how to build a trailer, Patrick simply figured all of it out and has now built it into the thriving empire of what’s now become Trailer King Builders.
