Helping People Turn Adversity into Strength
After surviving a life-altering gunshot wound while serving as a U.S. Marine, Patrick learned firsthand that we do not choose our challenges, but we always choose how we rise to meet them. Today, he inspires audiences worldwide with practical lessons on resilience, grit, and leadership, drawn from his journey as a Marine Officer, Team USA Invictus Games Captain & Medalist, and graduate of Wharton & Harvard — among other hard-earned life experiences.
“Everyone in the room was enraptured… an inspiring talk on grit, resilience, flexibility, and determination.”
