About

"Dr. McLaughlin is a gifted communicator with the unique ability to share ideas that will add value to anyone's journey in both business and life." -Kevin Brown, The HERO Effect

Dr. Patrick McLaughlin had just flown back from a weekend to remember with his brother and son when an unexpected snowstorm-rare in coastal North Carolina-shut his life down. But it gave him an opportunity. With his wife away, and his kids moved out of the house, he had an unusual amount of free time and realized that this was a gift of The Present.

Pat had just come out of a heartbreaking series of losses, which kicked him to the lowest point in his adult life. But he'd found a way out. Because loss is inevitable, we all must learn how to deal with it. No one goes through life undefeated.

Too many of us are suffering. We're living in the past with regreat, continually rewinding the film to be ourselves up over mistakes we made.

Too many of us spend our time worrying about an uncertain and unpredictable future.

Too many of us stare numbly at our phones, computers, and TV, missing life unfolding before our eyes. We're distracted from its beauty and meaning.

Dr. McLaughlin will take you down Memory Lane, sharing stories and advice to help enhance a memorable life, and provide you with a few recipes of how to overcome these issues, with a simple gift that is available to us each and every day of our life. If we would just have the discipline and take the required time to open it.

• Presence is the answer to overcoming loss.
• Presence is the answer to enjoying a memorable life.
• Presence is the ultimate Gift of Life...
if we just take the time to open it!
