About this listen

In this episode of The One Percent, Chris tackles a hard truth: resilience in America is fading. From comfort turning into a cage to the erosion of personal responsibility, he unpacks why mental fatigue, fragility, and declining health have become so common. He explores how disconnection from real struggle has left us weaker—and what it takes to reclaim strength, purpose, and grit in daily life.

You'll also hear this week's What's Hot and What's Not segment on personal development books, plus a powerful 1% Challenge to put the conversation into action.
