About this listen

In this raw and powerful episode of The One Percent Podcast, I sit down with Tom Williams—Managing Director, husband, father of four, and current client—to unpack what happens when life doesn’t just drift… it crashes.

Tom shares the behind-the-scenes story of a business crisis that blindsided him—stripping him of control, purpose, and almost everything he’d built over two decades. At breaking point, with his marriage strained, his health spiralling, and his identity in tatters, Tom did what most avoid—he faced the truth.

This is a story of personal responsibility, of what it really takes to claw your way back from fear, chaos, and self-destruction. From giving up alcohol to rebuilding his health, regaining control, and discovering a philosophy of life built on stoicism and structure—Tom reveals the transformation that followed.

Whether you’re stuck in stress, hiding behind success, or feel like you’re spinning too many plates—this episode will hit home.

That rescue call you’re waiting for isn’t coming. It’s not life getting in your way. It’s you. You are the problem…

But you are also the solution.

Time to get to work…
