Take The Power Back - Episode #6

In this episode of Take The Power Back, I sat down with former Green Beret and entrepreneur Patrick Laughlin to break down what elite performance really looks like in the military, in business, and in life.

Patrick shares what it actually takes to survive Special Forces selection, why most people fail long before they hit their physical limits, and how those same principles apply directly to entrepreneurship.
