Defectiveness, Shame, & Approval-Seeking (Scheme Part 5): Episode 232
Aug 19, 202620 min
Episode: Defectiveness, Shame & Approval-Seeking In the finale of our schema therapy series, we unpack the two schemas behind physician imposter syndrome — the fear that we're one mistake from being exposed, and the need for everyone's approval to feel okay. We talk about how these patterns form, how medicine reinforces them, the difference between shame and clean accountability, and four steps toward healing.

Emotional Inhibition & Deprivation (Schema Part 4): Episode 231
Aug 13, 202623 min
In this episode, we continue our series on early maladaptive schemas in physicians, this time exploring emotional inhibition and emotional deprivation, the schemas behind the "I'm fine" doctor who looks composed but feels numb, lonely, or disconnected underneath. In this episode: What emotional inhibition and emotional deprivation actually mean, and how they combine to create the physician who "needs nothing" Why emotional inhibition isn't the same as healthy emotional regulation How these schemas form in childhood, and how medical training reinforces them What emotional inhibition and deprivation look like in daily physician life (jokes instead of truth, discomfort with compliments, feeling alone in a crowded hospital) Four steps toward healing: noticing your feelings, separating privacy from secrecy, practicing "tolerable honesty," and strengthening the healthy adult voice A real case example of holding grief through a difficult pediatric loss This week's reflection prompt: where are you saying "I'm fine" when you're not?

Self-Sacrifice & Subjugation — The Perfect Doctor Trap (Schema Part 3): Episode 230
Aug 6, 202621 min
Why is it that the most compassionate, reliable doctors are so often the ones quietly disappearing on the inside? In this episode, we continue our series on early maladaptive schemas in medicine, digging into two patterns that show up constantly in physician culture: self-sacrifice ("other people's needs matter more than mine") and subjugation ("I don't have permission to say no"). Together, these two schemas create "the perfect doctor trap" — the physician everyone can count on, who stays late, skips meals, absorbs everyone else's stress, and rarely asks what they actually need. In this episode, we trace where these patterns come from, why medicine rewards them so effectively, and what it actually looks like to start healing them — without becoming selfish, cold, or a "bad doctor" in the process. This one might make you a little uncomfortable. In a good way. Connect With Us Loved this episode? Subscribe and leave us a five-star review — it helps other physicians find the show.

Schema Part 2 (Unrelenting Standards): Episode 229
Jul 30, 202623 min
In this episode, we explore the unrelenting standards schema and why it is so common in physicians. We discuss the difference between healthy excellence and fear-driven perfectionism, how this schema develops, how medical training reinforces it, and why it can lead to chronic overwork, harsh self-talk, guilt, shame, and burnout. We also offer practical tools for noticing the schema voice, identifying the fear underneath the pressure, defining “enough” ahead of time, and practicing a healthier adult response. Key ideas: Unrelenting standards are not the same as healthy excellence. Healthy excellence is values-driven; unrelenting standards are threat-driven. Medicine often rewards this schema before it reveals the cost. The schema says, “If this is not perfect, I am not safe.” Healing does not mean becoming careless. It means pursuing excellence without fear, shame, and self-abuse. Reflection question: Where are you calling it excellence when it may actually be fear?

Intro to Schema Therapy: Episode 228
Jul 23, 202623 min
In this episode, Amanda, Laura, and Kendra explore schema therapy and its relevance to physicians, focusing on how deep-rooted patterns from childhood influence burnout and professional behavior. They discuss practical ways to recognize and respond to these schemas to foster well-being and resilience. Key Topics: Schema therapy basics and history How schemas develop in childhood Impact of schemas on physician burnout Coping styles: avoidance, overcompensation, surrender Steps to identify and respond to schemas Practical reflection questions for self-awareness Case example of schema response to patient complaint Takeaways: Schemas are deeply learned emotional patterns from childhood. Medicine often rewards coping strategies that may be harmful long-term. Naming and recognizing schemas can help in choosing healthier responses. The goal is not to eliminate schemas but to notice and respond from the wise adult. Understanding your schemas can restore agency and reduce burnout.

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?
