Hape Motivation Podcast
Hape Motivation is a podcast for people who are committed to growth, but honest about how hard that journey can be.
Hosted by Dray Holland, this show is about leadership, mindset, discipline, self reflection, and learning how to move forward even when life feels heavy. It’s not about perfection or having all the answers. It’s about showing up, choosing yourself, and finding strength in the pause.
Each episode delivers real conversations, personal insights, and grounded motivation designed to help you reset your mindset, build consistency, and lead yourself with intention both personally and professionally.
This podcast is for anyone navigating growth, pressure, change, or transition and looking for clarity, encouragement, and direction along the way.
Because real power isn’t found in constant motion.
It’s found in the pause.
