S3E15: Getting Grittier with Chelsea Simpson - Part 2
Jul 23, 202648 minS3
In episode 12 of season 3, we interviewed speaker, author, and all-around baddie, Chelsea Simpson. After listening to that episode, Chelsea admitted that she felt she needed to go deeper and get grittier, so guess what?!? We brought her back for Part 2! In this episode, Chelsea reads poems from her book Like Poppies Do and gives the listener the gritty backstory behind each poem. This podcast is for you if you believe that: ● Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must. ● Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit! ● It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!” ● There’s more than enough for everyone. ● Your energy will tell you where to go next. Listen and trust the process. ● People are so much more than titles and the boxes others put them in.

S3E14: There's a Stage for You - An Interview with Jenn Espinosa-Goswami
Jul 9, 202635 minS3
Public speaking anxiety affects 40% of the population. Public speaking isn’t always about standing on a stage inspiring hundreds of people. Sometimes it looks like finding the courage to speak up in meetings. Other times it’s allowing yourself to share a vulnerable story with a group of friends. Even though, as humans, we long for the connection that storytelling brings to relationships, oftentimes shame, embarrassment, or lack of confidence gets in the way. In this episode, Shelley and Jill interview Jenn Espinosa-Goswami, an ICF-certified public speaking coach, award-winning trainer and Host of the Mic Drop Mindset podcast. Jenn helps leaders speak more clearly, consistently, and confidently and get paid for their expertise. What story do you have to tell? This podcast is for you if you believe that: ● Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must. ● Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit! ● It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!” ● There’s more than enough for everyone. ● Your energy will tell you where to go next.

How is it even possible that we’re already halfway there? In this episode, Shelley and Jill pause to acknowledge and honor the glittery and gritty moments from the first half of 2026.

Get ready for a candid, and inspiring conversation!

Think about these questions: What still resonates? What feels complete? What no longer fits who you're becoming? What surprises have emerged that weren't on your radar at the beginning of the year? ● Grit: what challenges, disappointments, and detours did you face the first part of this year? ● Growth: how are you creating space for growth the second half of the year?

S3E12: Blooming Again - An Interview with Chelsea Simpson
Jun 11, 202636 minS3
On Glitter, Grit, and Growth , we believe that “Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic sh!t.” Sometimes, that looks like leaving an abusive relationship to rebuild your life, brick by brick. Other times, it’s leaving a stable but unfulfilling job to pursue your passion. On this episode, Shelley and Jill get gritty with author, speaker, and survivor, Chelsea Simpson, who faced her fears, freed herself (and her daughters) from generational trauma, and now inspires the next generation of female leaders to live “like poppies do.” This podcast is for you if you believe that: ● Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must. ● Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit! ● It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!” ● There’s more than enough for everyone. ● Your energy will tell you where to go next.

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.
