267: Hamilton Security Group - James Hamilton

On the latest episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, we welcome James Hamilton — personal security expert, founder of Hamilton Security Group, and one of the most powerful voices in personal protection and empowerment today. James is only the second man ever to be featured on The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, and for good reason — his work is saving lives, protecting families, and giving women the tools to reclaim their power.

This episode wraps up our special month-long series on SASSGO and the life-changing I Will Survive Weekend. SASSGO is a nonprofit organization that protects women and girls from assault and exploitation through education, self-defense, and empowerment — and James is one of the elite instructors committed to that mission.

In this episode, you'll hear:

✨ James' personal journey — how he went from a kid in rural South Carolina to a top personal security expert trusted by high-profile clients, celebrities, and everyday families alike;
✨ What it means to be a personal security expert and how James started his own company, Hamilton Security Group, after years of working alongside legendary safety expert Gavin de Becker;
✨ The critical tools women already have — and how to use them to navigate threats and stay safe (spoiler: it starts with intuition… and a flashlight);
✨ How James became involved with SASSGO and the I Will Survive Weekend — and why this work is so close to his heart;
✨ Practical tips for protecting yourself, your children, and your community in everyday situations — from walking to your car at night, to staying safe in an Uber, to how to respond in an active shooter scenario;
✨ How to teach kids about safety and the online world, how to create "white space" in your life, and what advice James has for the "good guys" who want to stand up and protect the women and girls in their lives;
✨ And so much more.

This episode is a MUST LISTEN for everyone! You don't want to miss it.
