Michael Wyatt, a proud native of Central Texas, was born in West, Texas, and raised in Groesbeck. A dedicated community servant, Michael spent 10 years as a firefighter and EMT in Groesbeck before launching a successful entrepreneurial career. In 2014, he co-founded Wyatt Brothers Moving Company with his brother, establishing it as a trusted Waco staple. Over the course of seven years, the company earned its reputation as the go-to moving service for Fixer Upper, thanks to its consistent, high-quality work and attention to detail—traits that helped the company secure such prestigious clients.
The business was quite successful from many perspectives, though the main recipe was hard work combined with trial and error, requiring the daily involvement of the owners. After seven years, Michael and his brother decided to sell the company to pursue other ventures. Michael’s focus shifted to a new venture, where he could build a business that didn’t require his daily involvement.
Michael found ActionCOACH and became a client to build a strong foundation for his new business, The Posh Potty. After working with ActionCOACH as a client for over a year and seeing the impact and results firsthand, Michael joined the ActionCOACH team as the Business Development Manager in April 2023. Michael is excited to represent ActionCOACH in the community and, in the spirit of abundance, build his business simultaneously that can run without his daily involvement. He aims to make meaningful connections to help business owners flourish. Michael enjoys connecting business owners to the ActionCOACH community and coaches to help them grow and achieve their dreams.
Michael shares life with his amazing wife, Sarah, their three adorable children, and their dog, Bandit. He loves serving at Highland Baptist Church and enjoys spending time with his family. Michael notes that no matter what he does, he aims to lift up those around him and brighten their lives—whether in critical moments of peoples' lives, being a voice in the chamber of commerce, doing the heavy lifting in a moving company, or helping business owners connect to the power of coaching.
