Sep 15, 20261h 7mS3
This week, the mic turns on Beyond Should host and The Murmuration Collective founder Lucy Reynolds. In a candid conversation with her friend and colleague Esti MacInnes, Lucy shares the winding path that took her from advertising and global brands to motherhood, life abroad, executive coaching, and ultimately building The Murmuration Collective. Lucy opens up about the pressure she once felt to “do it all,” the coaching experience that changed the trajectory of her career, the loneliness of entrepreneurship, and the shoulds she had to shed to finally invest in herself and her vision. It’s a conversation about trusting the pull toward something more — even when you don’t know exactly where it’s leading — and giving yourself permission to build a life that actually feels like yours.

What Do You Want Now? Rethinking Your People, Place & Purpose with Lucy Reynolds
Sep 1, 202623 minS3
What happens when your life looks good on paper…but something still feels off? In this solo episode of Beyond Should , Lucy Reynolds gets personal about her decision to move back to her hometown of Austin and the deeper questions that led her there. Using the framework of people, place, and purpose, she explores how the things that once made a life feel right may not be what we need in our next chapter. Lucy shares how to recognize when you’re out of alignment with your current values, why wanting something different doesn’t make you ungrateful, and how the Wheel of Life can help reveal where you’re thriving—and where there may be friction. Because sometimes the should to shed is simply: “My life is good, so I should be happy with it exactly as it is.” You don’t have to blow up your life. You just have to get honest about what you want now.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
