About this listen

In this deeply honest episode of The One Percent Podcast, I sit down with Sam Vause—ex-Army officer, operations leader, husband, father, and former client—to unpack what happens when the life you’re living no longer reflects the man you thought you were.

Sam opens up about the slow slide that took him from disciplined and proud… to drifting, overweight, and out of control. Life looked fine on paper: a solid job, a young family, a decent life. But inside? He was silently struggling—battling shame, breaking promises to himself, and feeling like a fraud.

This is the story of what happens when the shadow you cast no longer lines up with the man you want to be—and what it takes to change that.

From shedding over three stone to rebuilding discipline, presence, and peace of mind, Sam shares the small, sustainable changes that helped him stop drifting and start leading again. No fluff, no silver bullets—just real work, real tools, and real results.

If you know you’ve dropped your standards—or you’re not showing up as the man you want to be—this one’s for you.
