Sometimes NOT getting what you want is exactly what you need! That’s the powerful message of today’s guest, Chris Patrick, author of Disaster to Dreams: A Gritty Guide to Finding Success in the Face of Failure. Join us as Chris shares his personal story of how he wasn’t leading the life he wanted, his biggest catastrophes and greatest comebacks, and demonstrates how amazing opportunities lie just on the other side of adversity—if you’re willing to do the dirty work and dig through defeat. His book, Disaster to Dreams, is a tough-love, unfiltered self-improvement guide certain to motivate and transform stress into stability, train wrecks into trophies and disasters into dreams, as he shares page after page of his perfect shiftstorm!
Chris Patrick could have stayed on a one-way path of failure and life setbacks, but instead, a hard-partying snowboard bum turned successful businessman, his ride to success was hard-earned and well deserved. Through trials and tribulations, Chris persevered despite setbacks on the road to his eventual success, such as business failures, loss and heartbreak. Chris is currently a real estate consultant and founder of The Patrick Group, a premier real estate firm in Las Vegas. With over $100 million sold since 2013, he was named in the top 1% for all Las Vegas Realtors and the number one top producer for Signature Real Estate Group. Previously, he owned three successful businesses and spent 15 satisfying years in sales, marketing and customer service.
His message is an important and powerful one, written candidly and received between the pages as if hearing it right from your bestie over a latte or your favorite beverage or brew. And that is, he hopes to inspire others to see the opportunity within their own failures, rather than shame and defeat, and overcome their serious hardships, traumatic events, or struggles in order to live their absolute best lives. Chris's unfiltered messages resonate chapter after chapter. (note we elude to expletives in this episode but do not use them)
Chris Patrick is the classic example that life is what we make of it, and he’s here to remind everyone that nobody has a perfect life but we do have the power to improve it. Disaster to Dreams is a gripping read reminding everyone of their limitless opportunity. It’s part guidebook, part self-reflection workbook, part memoir, and entrepreneur’s bread crumb trail for great advice, but most of all, it’s a book for anyone who seeks to get the most out of life!
