Give it all away.

As a pro snowboarder and artist, Pat Milbery is one of Denver’s most creative and interesting people. Buildings all over the city feature Pat’s iconic wall murals - sometimes 40 feet or higher, full of color, geometry, and narrative. His goal through his art is simple - spread love. Here’s the thing though -- All these accomplishments are irrelevant to the conversation that you’re about to hear.

This conversation is actually about you. Here’s what you’re going to get out of this:

You’re going to want to work harder.
You’re going to find your flow state.
You’re going to recognize the joy and love in life’s journey.
You’re probably going to end up giving out a bunch more compliments to strangers.

Above all, energy is Pat’s biggest strength, and Pat keeps none of that energy for himself. Pat has overcome something many of us may fear and not even know it -- He gives kindness and joy in abundance. The world needs more of Pat Milbery, and we are happy to dish some out to you today.
