Sep 24, 202623 min
¿Qué se necesita para sostener el trabajo de una organización a largo plazo cuando la comunidad que atiende no puede permitirse esperar? ¿Y cómo puede la creación de reservas de capital ayudar a proteger no solo la salud financiera de una organización, sino también los derechos, los medios de vida y la soberanía de medio millón de personas indígenas? En este episodio, Lucía conversa con Immaculate Mutheu, especialista en finanzas de Friends of Lake Turkana (FoLT), una organización indígena liderada por mujeres en Kenia que trabaja para proteger el lago Turkana, el cuarto lago más grande de África, y a más de medio millón de personas indígenas cuyas vidas dependen de él. Imma comparte cómo FoLT logró superar la «hambruna organizacional» y el ciclo de escasez de financiamiento para crear reservas operativas y de recursos o capital para el cambio. A través de sus 16 años de experiencia, Imma explora cómo las y los líderes en finanzas pueden defender la importancia de las reservas de capital, negociar con donantes, gestionar riesgos y desarrollar la resiliencia financiera necesaria para seguir estando presentes para sus comunidades. Temple, Misión y Números Acompáñanos a explorar las historias no contadas de las y los líderes financieros trabajando por la justicia social y climática en todo el mundo. Más allá de las auditorías, las hojas de cálculo y las relaciones con donantes, estas y estos líderes están redefiniendo lo que significa la resiliencia organizacional. En cada episodio, nos adentramos en lo que están poniendo en práctica: estrategias para la gestión de riesgos, movilización de recursos, diversificación, reservas de capital, inversiones, fortalecimiento de equipos, crecimiento sostenible… ¡y mucho más!

Que faut-il faire pour assurer la pérennité d’une organisation quand la communauté qu’elle sert ne peut pas se permettre d’attendre? Et comment la construction de réserves de capital peut-elle contribuer à protéger non seulement la santé financière d’une organisation, mais aussi les droits, les moyens de substistance et la souveraineté d’un demi-million d’autochtones? Dans cet épisode, Lucia converse avec Immaculate Mutheu, spécialiste en finance au sein de Friends of Lake Turkana (FoLT), une organisation autochtone dirigée par des femmes au Kenya et qui oeuvre à la protection du lac Turkana, le quatrième lac le plus grand d’Afrique, ainsi qu’à celle d’un demi-million d’autochtones dont la vie dépend du lac. Imma explique la manière dont l’organisation s’est affranchie du cycle de la famine des financements par subvention pour constituer des réserves de capital destinées à soutenir ses activités et impulser le changement. Forte de 16 ans d’expérience, Imma explique comment les responsables des finances peuvent plaider en faveur des réserves de capital, négocier avec les bailleurs, gérer les risques et renforcer la résilience financière nécessaire pour continuer à défendre leurs communautés. — Courage, Mission et Chiffres Rejoignez-nous pour explorer les histoires inédites de leaders financiers qui œuvrent pour la justice sociale et environnementale à travers le monde. Ces leaders représentent la véritable signification de la résilience organisationnelle, au-delà des audits, des tableurs et des relations avec les donateurs.

Sep 24, 202621 min
What does it take to sustain an organization’s work for the long run when the community it serves can’t afford to wait? And how can building capital reserves help protect not only an organization’s financial health, but the rights, livelihoods, and sovereignty of half a million indigenous people? In this episode, Lucía sits down with Immaculate Mutheu, Finance Specialist at Friends of Lake Turkana (FoLT), an Indigenous women-led organization in Kenya working to protect Lake Turkana, Africa's fourth-largest lake, and the half a million Indigenous people whose lives depend on it. Imma shares how FoLT moved beyond the “starvation cycle” of grant funding to build operating and change capital reserves. Drawing on 16 years of experience, Imma explores how finance leaders can make the case for capital reserves, negotiate with donors, manage risk, and build the financial resilience needed to keep showing up for their communities.

Aug 5, 202620 min
In this episode, we unpack the vital role governance plays in building resilient, mission-driven organizations. Why do NGOs need a Board? What does good governance actually look like in practice? And why do funders increasingly see strong governance as a key indicator of financial health and organizational credibility?

From building a diverse, agile Board to creating meaningful communication rituals that keep Board members engaged, this conversation is packed with actionable insights for nonprofit leaders, Board members, and anyone committed to building a sustainable organization.

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.
