As a preface I’m gonna say I like Holly, I think she is quite genuine and does show gratitude for everything she’s got now.
BUT. I find this thing with influencers so ridiculous. They live the life we all do ON TOP of our jobs, e.g. going to the gym, running, doing some shopping, traveling when we can etc, but they make it look like it’s so bloody important. Calm down, you went to the supermarket, cleaned your house and did a run, most of us do all those on top of full time jobs and families.
I find it almost hilarious the amount of free time they’ve got in their hands. Also the fact that they dramatize every second of their life for their views, with all the motivational music playing in the background. I wonder if they feel as important as they want to show us.

I don’t know if I’m the only one that’s been a bit rubbed the wrong way by her video today showing what a typical day is like for her, labelling it a 9-5 as if it’s anywhere near comparable to those that actually work 9-5 but commenting it’s actually 7-5? If you actually add up the hours she’s “working” it’s about 4 hours max! She takes her dog out for long walks, going for an hour long run in the middle of the day and then spends hours “filming content” which is her filming what she’s cooking and eating so basically like her filming her lunch break. It’s just all so privileged and calling it a typical 9-5 is laughable.

I mean… I guess she is doing a type of OF. The link is on her linktree, on her instagram - I’m kinda gutted as I didn’t think she would do OF. Nothing wrong with it and do what you want, but I’m surprised honestly.

There's something about her that's just become so unlikeable recently

Her target audience was younger women who were into running and fitness, food ideas. I loved her content when she was in Manchester. But when she moved to the states it’s just not relatable - the boobs, the teeth, the trips, the filler, coachella, road trips to Yosemite, business class flights back and forth everywhere and all the instagram curated perfectness is just feeling like she’s shoving it down our throats how great she has it now. She’s just like any other influencer now :-/

I wonder how many 'lock in for May', 'reset with me', 'get our shit together' videos she can do. i'm so bored of her need to 'recentre' and 'reset' and 'get locked in'. If you're not able to maintain your healthy habits, it means they're unsustainable Holly. Everything is always being reset and I'm SO bored of it
Can we just stop assuming women who earn a lot of money must be doing sex work?
I agree she hasn’t been posting nearly as much content and doesn’t get engagement as she once did - she could be in debt, relying on loans, she could just have been sensible with her money and had some lucrative. Partnerships. There are other means than sex work
I like Holly but I think she is one of those people that will go wherever the wind blows. When strong was more fashionable she would hit the gym 6 times a week, now she that skinny is trending back she swiftly lost so much weight including muscle mass. I hope she's ok.

Don’t know if anyone else has listened to the Girl Therapy podcast episode with Holly but she talks about the horrid ex and wow he sounded insane!
Mentioned he erupted at her in public (and in front of his own family!!!) at a pool party on the holiday and it was actually his sister who pulled her aside and said you need to leave him. She immediately left the party so explains why she up and left and had a solo trip to Rome.

Had to laugh at Holly’s reel about listening to a podcast to learn how to be rich, hot and smart (or something along those lines). It is like she googled 'how to become smart' 
And then there’s the sudden ‘I’ve joined a book club’ era. She’s already complaining that the book isn’t gripping her, yes because probably it’s not YA with love triangles and fairies. Feels very ‘trying to impress the history professor boyfriend’ energy, like she’s trying to keep up with him. Yeah good luck girl

I can’t believe she’s already leaving a 9 week puppy at home alone 
Holly, seeing as you have directly confirmed you read this thread whilst on a podcast, please do better. You can make as many extravagant purchases as you like on a whim but a puppy isn’t a toy. It doesn’t fit her lifestyle at all.

He looks old AFHe looks old but his LinkedIn suggests he only finished high school 11 years ago which would make him around 29I would have said he looked closer to 39

I think I’m gonna unfollow, I find her totally out of touch, unrelatable and honestly just boring now.
She isn’t consistent with content and vlogs and her stories are either selling crap or ads.
Used to love her but I’ve slowly just been turned off with how she’s changed.

I won’t be surprised at all if Holly announces her next goal is a triathlon in 2025. She’s posted herself going to the gym to swim lengths a couple of times recently, now buying a bike. These fitness influencers all copy each other for content and jump on the latest bandwagon rather than just do things that they enjoy. A few years ago it was weightlifting with an emphasis on glute growth, then they all started running and signing up for marathons, then the “hybrid athlete” trend that’s been going for the last year started. 2024 seems to be the year that every fitness influencer is training for either Hyrox or a triathlon. I don’t think I can cope with anymore of Holly’s ‘journeys’ tbh, it’s so predictable now that I can guess the caption on her post about the bike: “follow me on my journey to becoming a cycling girlie”.
How tone deaf could she be? 1 - I actually highly doubt she even knows enough about America's politics to have an informed opinion on it. She's probably just regurgitated other people's thoughts and made them her own. 2 - who is going to message her to chat about the election? People who have genuine problems with the cost of living crisis etc and worrying about how they will be continuing to afford things so she can go "oh it's terrible isn't it" whilst she cries her crocodile tears on her #gifted Oner tracksuit, in her $6000 (cant remember how much tbh) apartment, with her $150 EACH pots and pans. Like shut up!
