Welcome to the Out of Hours podcast - the podcast for those creating things that should exist in the world, out of hours.
I’m Georgia Ritter, founder of OutofHours.org, the community for people with side projects.
On this show, I’ll explore the stories of people who have followed their curiosity, been brave, and started a side project, only to turn it into something much bigger than they ever thought possible. I’ll explore the stories of nonprofits, businesses, creative projects and social movements - to understand the practical first steps they took, the doors these small ideas opened and the magic that happens when you start taking your own ideas seriously.

Stop Playing Small: Tara Mohr on Conditioning, Fear, and Finally Taking Up Space
If you're looking for Out of Hours coaching - get in touch (outofhours.org/coaching)!
Why do so many brilliant, ambitious women still hold back, play small, and second‑guess themselves?
This episode is for people who are:
Are ambitious but secretly plagued by self‑doubt
Have a side project idea you can’t stop thinking about
Are tired of over‑editing emails and apologising for taking up space
Want a more compassionate, grounded way to begin “playing big”
In this episode, I’m joined by Tara Mohr (https://www.taramohr.com/about-tara/)—author of the best‑selling book “Playing Big: Practical Wisdom for Women Who Want to Speak Up, Create, and Lead.” Tara has coached thousands of women worldwide and created the global Playing Big leadership program, helping women move past self‑doubt and step into their real power.
We get into the reasons women stay small—and how to change that in practical, doable ways. In this conversation, we talk about:
The “good girl / good student” trap
How being the star student at school can secretly sabotage you at work, in leadership, and in creative life.
The two kinds of fear you must learn to tell apart
The ancient concepts of pahad (projected, catastrophising fear) and yirah (the sacred fear of expansion) and how to know whether you’re in danger or on the edge of growth.
Why we self‑blame when things go wrong
Side projects, callings and why you don't need to “make it your job”
How to start if you feel like you “don’t have a calling”
The key question Tara prefers instead of “What is my purpose?” and what to do with that one idea that has been quietly nagging at you for years.
Minimising language and email habits that keep you small
The subtle phrases that undermine you (and simple ways to fix it)
Redefining success so you actually take risks
If you’ve ever felt like you have more to say, more to build, or more to become - this episode will give you language, frameworks, and practical steps to finally play bigger on your own terms.

AllSaints: Choosing JOY over growth (and choosing to let go), with Stuart Trevor
Today on the podcast I am joined by the legendary Stuart Trevor - founder of AllSaints (https://www.allsaints.com/). And now his latest project Stuart Trevor. (https://stuarttrevor.com/)
I wanted to speak to Stuart because this podcast is about living before you run out of hours - and Stuart embodies this more than most.
He started All Saints in the 90s and built it into a cult brand - dressing rockstars like Kings of Leon, The Who, Depeche Mode, Placebo and Destinys Child and Gwen Stefani - at its peak it had over 200 stores worldwide across 25 countries, with hundreds of millions of revenue.
But he went on to sell it.
Stuart had previously been scouted by two of the biggest fashion brands at the time - Paul Smith and Reiss - and ended up joining Reiss and working under David Reiss’ tutelage for a while until he plucked the courage up to start his own brand.
The shop has changed a lot now, it’s a world away from the All Saints that Trevor poured his love and soul into - so this is a story of building what should exist, letting go, and moving on to a new passion in your next chapter. It’s also a story of what happens when you seek to optimise JOY and FUN and not just productivity and efficiency. Much needed in today’s world.

Unplugged: Dopamine Dysregulation, Founder Minimalism, and Why You Need to Put Your Phone Down, with founder Hector Hughes
Today on the podcast we are joined by Hector Hughes, the founder and CEO of Unplugged (https://unplugged.rest/). Unplugged offers you the opportunity to get completely offline - for a few days. They have over 55 offline cabins in nature across the UK and Spain, all close to the major cities.
In this episode, we go beyond the polished founder origin story of Unplugged to explore burnout, addiction, shame, and the deeper search for meaning. We unpack how dopamine dysregulation, phone addiction, and suppressed emotions show up in modern life, and why numbing becomes our default. We also explore the power of subtraction, digital detox, spirituality, and emotional honesty as routes back to joy, presence, and a kinder way of being in the world.
Unplugged aims to offer a sanctuary away from screens, stress, and scrolling. In just a few years, they’ve helped tens of thousands of people go offline - when staying guests have to literally lock their phones away, and switch off.
