The One Percent

n this episode, I sit down with Adam Wilcox.

Twenty years in tech, a young family at home - a wife, a four-year-old and a 20-month-old. "Pretty hectic," as he puts it.

Adam breaks his life into four areas: work, family, friends, himself. A couple of months back he asked himself if he was showing up as his best self in any of them - and, more importantly, whether he was present at home.

The honest answer was no.

A sales job that never switches off. Checking his phone from first thing to last thing. Stepping away from dinner with the kids to take a call. No boundary between work and home - so friends got dropped, the relationship ran on empty, and he came last.

Sound familiar?

We got to work on the foundations. Early mornings before the kids are up. Cold showers, movement, meditation, journaling. A weekly date night. Getting himself off the bottom of the pile.

A couple of months on, nothing material has changed - same job, same full house at home - but Adam's a different bloke. Calmer. On the front foot. More present with his wife and kids. And handling the hard days at work better because of it.

Same life. Better operating system. Different Adam.

In this episode, I sit down with Chris Townsend.

City lawyer, partner at his firm, three little girls at home - "beautiful chaos" as he calls it.

Nothing was on fire. No breakdown, no rock bottom. Work was actually going well.

But juggling the job, the family, his health and everything else, he felt like he wasn't winning at anything. Trying in every area, never quite there in any of them.

Sound familiar?

Chris had done coaching before - work-focused stuff. This was different. We worked on the whole package: how he runs his diary, his sleep, the client dinners with the endless free wine, and learning to live in the gain instead of the gap.

Over a year on, he's in a different spot.

In control of his diary instead of run by it. Going to client events without a drink and not giving it a second thought. In bed at a sensible hour and leading his team to do the same.

And his biggest win of the day? Getting home for bedtime and reading a book to his girls.

Same job. Same beautiful chaos. Different Chris.

In this episode, I sit down with Simon Fox.

47, married, father to a seven-year-old, senior role in education, and slowly becoming someone he didn’t want to be.

Flat. Lethargic. Falling asleep on the sofa after grinding through the days and being called out by his mrs for turning into a “grumpy old man”.

Malaise & mediocrity had become Simon’s normal.

Simon had good intentions. He wanted to train more, feel better, have more energy and show up properly at home.

But intentions don’t change anything.

Action does.

We worked on changing how he was operating, building habits he could actually stick to, and addressing what was going on physically as well as mentally.

Now he feels like he’s living in a different world.

More energy. Resilient mindset. Training properly. More present at home.

Same life, but his intentions now firmly aligned with action.

Simon v2.0 in business.

In this episode, I sit down with Phil Rennie.

Business owner, young family, driven, ambitious, and used to going all in.

The problem was, that approach was burning him out every year.

Push hard, grind through it, hit a wall, repeat.

It got to the point where everything slowed down. No energy, no focus, and not showing up properly at home or in the business.

Health & wellbeing completely on it’s arse.

He thought needed to push harder.

Spoiler alert; he didn’t.

The problem wasn’t effort, it was how he was operating.

We stripped it back, changed the approach, and focused on building something he could actually sustain instead of short bursts followed by burnout.

We also found there was more going on under the surface with his health that needed addressing.

And we addressed it.

Now he’s in a completely different place.

More energy, clearer thinking, and actually able to show up properly across everything that matters.

Same business. Same life. Same stress.

Better standards. Better structure. Better Phil.

In this episode, I sit down with Stuart Rose.

Approaching 40, young family, full on at work, and trying to give 100% to everything, but none of it was getting his best.

He was flat, not present, and just grinding through the days. He kept telling himself he’d sort it when things got easier, but with a second child on the way and work only getting busier, it was obvious that wasn’t happening.

The problem wasn’t effort, it was how he was operating.

We didn’t overhaul his life, we changed how he was operating within it, built something he could actually stick to, and addressed the habits and mindset that had been holding him back.

Fourteen weeks later, nothing external has changed, but he’s more present, clearer at work, and back in control of himself.

Same life. Better standards. Better structure. Better mindset. Better Stuart.
