We had the good fortune of connecting with Tyrone Barber and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tyrone, what habits do you feel helped you succeed?
The habits that helped me succeed the most is faith and courage. The ability to see and believe what hasn’t happened yet has helped me in my journey

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I started Roofing seven months ago . I heard it was a sales job and coming from my background speaking and being social was my weakest area in my life . So I got into it to challenge myself. To force myself into a new and more productive environment. It was super hard it took me allot longer Than the other guys . But I kept persisting being that it was commission only and my life at the time had been shaken so much the financial and mental pressure was extreme to say the least lol. But on the other side I’ve learned the gift of being grateful for every moment in life . To not panic when things happen . Being homeless before this definitely helped me with having faith and knowing that then wasn’t the end all be all . That there always a other side to any storm in life and that I’m definitely always ok

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
If I had a friend that was visiting I’d take them to the Atlanta aquarium. We have the biggest aquarium and it’s really cool. I’d also take them to a place called ponce city market . They have this cool rooftop experience where they have good food and fun games . I’d also take them to Lenox mall it’s lots of cool clothes and things in there . And lastly Stone Mountain it’s a dope spot with good food pretty much everywhere
