Who decided the rules you live by are actually the rules?

Patrick sits down with Cate Hall, author of the forthcoming book You Can Just Do Things: How High-Agency People Get What They Want Out of Life, for a conversation about agency, reinvention, resilience, and challenging invisible limits.

Cate’s story is anything but conventional. She went from attorney to world-class poker player to battling addiction and rebuilding her life from the ground up. Along the way, she became a leader in the world of pandemic medicine and now serves as CEO of one of the world’s largest private foundations.

Together, they explore what separates people who wait from people who act, why so many limitations are self-imposed, and how individuals can reclaim ownership over their future in a rapidly changing world.

This episode is a powerful reminder that disruption often begins the moment you realize you are allowed to do things differently.

What if the life you want isn't built through hustle, but through intentional design?

In this episode of Disrupt Everything, Patrick sits down with entrepreneur, bestselling author, and performance coach Craig Ballantyne to explore why discipline isn't about restriction. It's about freedom. Known by many as "The World's Most Disciplined Man," Craig has helped hundreds of business leaders and entrepreneurs grow successful businesses while reclaiming their time, protecting their priorities, and building lives they actually want to live.

Together, they unpack the principles behind Craig's Perfect Day and Perfect Week frameworks, the surprising power of subtraction, and why so many high achievers become trapped by the very success they worked so hard to create.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed, overcommitted, or stuck reacting to everyone else's agenda, this conversation offers a different path forward. Because the goal isn't simply to be more productive. The goal is to build a life of meaning, impact, and freedom—on purpose.

It's time to disrupt the default and start living by design.

What would happen if you stopped waiting for permission and simply started tackling big problems?

Patrick talks with Tommy Pennington, a Vanderbilt graduate and rising innovator, about what it means to think boldly at any age. Tommy has explored everything from fusion-powered technology to traffic flow systems to helping nonprofits gain access to large-scale donated goods through his work at SIMPLI.

What makes Tommy stand out is not just the size of the problems he takes on. It’s his willingness to move toward complexity instead of away from it.

This conversation explores curiosity, initiative, innovation, and the mindset required to pursue ideas that most people would never even attempt.
