Fired, robbed, divorced, and with two businesses down the drain, Chris Patrick was stuck on a one-way street of screwups and failures.
The life he was leading wasn't what he wanted-but sometimes, not getting what you want is exactly what you need. Amazing Opportunities Lie on The Other Side of Adversity is the no nonsense way Chris approaches life.
I sat down with Entrepreneur and Author Chris Patrick to discuss his book "Disasters To Dreams: A Gritty Guide to Finding Success In The Face Of Failure" on The Fallible Man Podcast. The Book ask Are you ready to turn your personal sh*tstorm into the life of your dreams? Are you ready for personal growth?
Chris has made an incredible life for himself through hard work and perspective, even when all seemed lost. His book was written a lot like this conversation feels, like 2 guys drinking beers and discussing life.
HIs style of writing and conversation was something I could connect with and I think you will too! Are you ready to understand how to beat adversity? It's time to turn your disasters into dreams!

My Thoughts Will Probably Offend You – Alpha Male Non-Sense
What is an alpha male? Is it a real thing or is it non-sense and what makes a male “Alpha” This garbage discussion is doing as much to damage men as the “toxic masculinity” bullshit that has been spewed.
I was watching a video recently by one of my favorite YouTubers Michelle McDaniel over on “My Thoughts will Probably Offend You” called “Learning what an Alpha Male is from the "Real Men" of the Internet” and she had some really great points.
I wanted to dig into this a little bit and touch on some of her questions because they deserve some answers, we all do.
There are so many people screaming about "Alpha" male status, but what are they selling and is it legit? Do Alpha males exist? Are there really Alphas, betas, sigmas and whatever other term they are trying to sell?
Is it something you can obtain by listening to someone rant and espouse tales of times gone by when "men were men"; what does that even mean?
My thoughts will probably offend you but We need answers. What are real men. What does it mean to be a real man?
Here is Michelle's video if you want to know what inspired this episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZTzl90OKag&t=54s
