WORK IN PROGRESS

Decel mindset, relentless iteration and esoteric health tips - Episode #1


Listen Later

Welcome to the first episode of WIP The Podcast – straight out of Amsterdam, where we get real about the grit and grind of building a business. We’re not your average gurus with a success story wrapped in a bow. We’re founders in the trenches, sharing what it actually takes to scale, learn, fail, and iterate.

In this episode, we dig into:
The Decel Mindset – why there’s zero room for it if you’re serious about growing
Throughput and Volume – why bootstrapping an agency without high project flow is a one-way ticket to irrelevance
Constant Iteration – the obsession to test, tweak, and bring value to clients
Community and Culture – the real, unpolished truth of keeping a team motivated and thriving

Plus, a bit of esoteric wellness (Epsom salt and baking soda baths) for good measure

This is for anyone who’s building, grinding, and constantly learning. Hit subscribe if you’re here for the unfiltered, raw journey. We’re just getting started.
