About Patrick
At the age of nine Patrick was told he would never walk again by doctors because of a rare hip disease that resulted in the deterioration of his left hip. He was in leg braces and crutches for over a year. Patrick had experimental surgery and was put in a body cast for 2 months. After a second surgery and on crutches for another 6 months, he finally took his first step proving the world “impossible” is just a state of mind, and continued to defy the odds with what he calls The 1% Mentality. He drove his mind and body to the limit and eventually became an elite frogman. His best seller: No Surrender, Faith, Family, and Finding your way as seen on Fox and friends, is that testimony and story.
Patrick is a former Navy SEAL who served in combat in the Middle East and after his time at SEAL team three and team seven, he was hand selected to implement a distinct scenario based training blueprint for Naval Special Warfare’s (NSW) Foreign Language Program. Patrick lead as the liaison officer for the Foreign Language Program for all of NSW while stationed at the Advanced Training Center in Coronado California.
After his active duty time was fulfilled, he was asked to be a contracted SEAL Mentor running the NSW selection program (SEAL, SWCC, EOD, Diver, AIRR) for the Navy in the states of Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio. For 6 years he mentored over 1,000 men and women through his program teaching his G.R.I.T. Method mental toughness strategy to all. He was rated the number one Navy SEAL Mentor in the Nation. During this time, he received his Doctorate of Ministry in Christian Leadership from Kingdom University International in Grand Rapids Michigan.
While teaching mental toughness, teamwork, leadership, and more to the NSW program, Patrick also lead others in professional sports and business. This consulting ranged from different levels with players, coaches, leaders, and CEO’s to achieve higher levels of personal and professional success.
