Inspiring veterans and all individuals to overcome life’s challenges, embrace growth, and thrive with purpose, resilience, and grit—whether in business or beyond.

In this unfiltered, no-holds-barred episode of Rise.Run., your favorite chaotic veteran host finally sits down with the one and only Zack “Uncaged” Roe Williams — entrepreneur, mentor, and living proof that pain is often the birthplace of purpose. What starts off as whiskey-fueled banter quickly spirals into a raw and powerful origin story, as Zack opens up about everything from being homeschooled and growing up as the oldest of five, to building a multimillion-dollar marketing career — only to get blindsided by personal betrayal that would break most men.
He shares how his childhood shaped his relentless mindset, what it really takes to break the mold of the W-2 lifestyle, and how starting a t-shirt company with friends turned into a full-blown movement. This is the beginning of a story so wild, it couldn’t possibly fit in one episode — so buckle up, because this is only part one.
Topics Covered:
How a homeschool misfit built a global brand from graphic tees
The dark reality behind Zack’s first marriage and brutal betrayal
The problem with the school system (and why ADHD was a clue, not a curse)
A near-fatal turning point that changed everything (coming soon in Part 2)
Strap in. This ride’s just getting started.
