WIP'n & Reppin'

Education EN ↓ 15 episodes

Most of us build a life we thought we wanted — then one day look up and think: hang on, is this actually it? WIP'n & Reppin' is for anyone in that moment. Reframing setbacks, building confidence, asking for what you want, moving your body for your mind — basically everything that helps you build a life that genuinely fits you. Not about perfection but about doing the reps — on your terms! WIP — Work In Progress. Reppin' — showing up for it anyway. No fluff. No lectures. Fortnightly. Hosted by Holly — architect, developer and career pivoter - who learned most of this the hard way.

14. How to Plan a Career Pivot (Without Blowing Up Your Life) 08.10.2026

A career change doesn't have to mean quitting on Monday and hoping for the best. Everyone warns you about the big leap. Nobody warns you about walking briskly in the wrong direction, which is what I did first time round... This is the plan I wish I'd had: what to work out first, how much money you need behind you, and when to hand in your notice. I've laid out my notes in six stages, t...

13. What pivoting & lobsters have in common; growing pains! 24.09.2026

Pivoting is like being a lobster...it grows its new shell under the old one before it breaks out. Your next version works the same way. If you've been wondering why going after the bigger thing feels so uncomfortable, this episode is for you. That could be a career change, starting your own business, or stepping up to the next level where you already are. If you keep reading one more book befo...

12. Can you actually pivot your life with a family? 10.09.2026

She moved her whole family to Finland 1 month after launching her new business in London. Life just wasn't working. That's how Faith describes London in 2023 — two kids under five, a husband who was never home, a startup she was building from scratch, and a growing sense that something had to change. So she got out a whiteboard. Mapped family values on one side, real life on the other. Loo...

11. Wanting change and being ready for it are not the same thing (annoyingly) 28.08.2026

Are you lying to yourself about being ready? You say you want a different life. You might even be working hard toward it. So why isn't it happening? This episode gives you a seven-question diagnostic framework to find out exactly which type of stuck you're in — and what to actually do about it. In this episode, you'll learn: Why hard work can keep you exactly where you are (and how to...

10. Three Months In - What's Actually Happened? 30.07.2026

Recording this from the kitchen table of our unsold flat at 11pm. That pretty much sums up where we are. This is our first check-in — what's working, what isn't, and why the messy middle is not a sign you're failing. In this episode, you'll learn: Why adding a hard deadline into semi-chaos can actually be the thing that grounds you What's genuinely shifted in three months (beach trips, camper vans...

09. You're not lazy, just blocked - Why knowing your values is only the first step 16.07.2026

One Sunday afternoon, a romcom I accidentally put on cracked open something I'd been sitting on for years. This episode is about what it showed me — and the four things standing between your values and your actual life. In this episode, you'll learn: Why knowing your values is just the beginning, not the destination The belief running underneath your actions that's quietly blocking you...

08. I thought I didn't like people...turns out I was afraid of them instead! 02.07.2026

A panic attack in a car park before a cycling training ride cracked open something I'd been carrying for years. I thought I just wasn't a people person. Turns out I was afraid of them — and those two things look identical from the outside but have completely different solutions. In this episode, you'll learn: Why seeing the real fear (not the surface one) removes half the problem immed...

07. Why I built this & the beer mat story 22.06.2026

WIP'n & Reppin' — Episode 7: Why I Built This (And the Beer Mat That Started It All) Sometimes you have to be a little bit strange in public to get free of what's actually keeping you stuck. This is the origin story. In this episode, Holly tells the story of the away days in Brighton that broke everything open — and the moment she tore up every limitation she'd ever been carrying and threw them ov...

06. Impatience as a Superpower! 04.06.2026

Is patience always a virtue!? Fed up of slow and steady wins the race? Good! Maybe that advice has quietly held you back for years. What if we could just throw that shizz out the window!? What if impatience, that restless energy, that fire — is actually drive, vision, and an instinct for spotting a faster, better route that other people simply cannot see yet?  In this episode, you'll learn:  -...

05. Health as a Form of Self Respect 04.06.2026

What if not looking after yourself was the highest form of disrespect to yourself? Your body isn't the reward you get once everything else is sorted. It's the infrastructure everything else is built on. Most of us put ourselves last on a list that never ends. Once the project's done, once things calm down, then I'll sleep properly, eat properly, move properly. Except everything else is never under...

04. You're good at your job - but is it good for you? The career pivots one 21.05.2026

You've followed the plan. Built the career. Ticked the boxes. And now you're exhausted and you genuinely can't tell if it's the job, the rain, or whether you just need three tequila shots! Before you do anything drastic — let's work out what's actually going on first. Because the career might not be the problem. And knowing the difference saves a lot of expensive mistakes....

Intro to WIP'n & Reppin' 14.05.2026

No one is coming to save you. And honestly? That's the best news you'll hear today. WIP'n & Reppin' is honest conversation, real tools and the occasional truth you didn't know you needed to hear. We talk about career pivots nobody prepares you for, knowing yourself well enough to build a life that actually fits, your body and what moving it does for your mind, and saying wh...

03. Stop Waiting for Permission! 14.05.2026

Who and what are you actually waiting for? To change jobs, move countries, start that business, take that class, build that new life — what exactly is holding you back? Do you even know? Spoiler: it's probably not what you think. Most of us are waiting for permission — from a boss, a partner, a friend, a random stranger on the internet — to tell us we're finally ready. And women? We feel t...

02. Netflix or Your Life? 14.05.2026

You know exactly how long you spend on Netflix. When did you last spend that same time on your actual life? Most of us think we know what we value. Turns out most of us are wrong — and that gap between what we say we value and what we actually value is the source of almost everything that feels slightly off. In this episode Holly walks you through the exact exercise that changed everything for her...

01. WTF is Middlescence & How Did I Get Here!? 14.05.2026

You probably had a great plan all mapped out, followed it really well, achieved it all — and then one day looked up and thought: hang on, is this it? This isn't quite what I expected! If that sounds familiar you might be going through middlesescence — which you probably aren't familiar with! And no, it's not a crisis (although sometimes it might feel rough!) but rather a time of change...
