In this candid and insightful episode of The One Percent Podcast, I sit down with James Forrest—actuary, husband, father of two grown-up kids, and current client—to explore what happens when life quietly slips out of alignment.
James had it all on paper: a successful career, stable family, and a comfortable life. But beneath the surface, he felt disconnected, unsettled, and frustrated. Despite knowing exactly what he needed to do, James struggled with inconsistency—cycling between disciplined phases and burnout, never truly feeling in control.
This is a story about confronting subtle burnout, challenging your internal narratives, and creating lasting change. James shares his journey of embedding sustainable habits, embracing stoicism, and discovering true self-awareness and discipline—not just physically, but mentally and emotionally.
If you’ve ever felt like life looks perfect from the outside, but inside you’re quietly struggling—this episode is for you.
Life isn’t getting in your way—you are. The good news? You have everything you need to fix it.
It’s time to take control.
