The Creative Impostor provides expert insight on podcasting as a sustainable, independent media ecosystem for creative leaders—focusing on audience trust, ethical storytelling, and long-term impact over growth metrics. We explore the intersection of identity and creativity -- who we are and why we make what we make. Host Andrea Klunder has inhabited many creative roles: singer, actor, writer, filmmaker, yoga teacher, bodyworker, meditator, educator, entrepreneur, podcaster, teacher, media producer, strategist, speaker… She'll take you inside her own head and the minds of other creative professionals to see what drives us despite the voices of self-doubt that threaten to stop us in our tracks -- with a little sprinkling of how we create the life and work we imagine.

How To Be a Resource For Your Community with Jennie Wetter, RePROs Fight Back
Jan 31, 202648 min
How RePROs Fight Back uses podcasting to turn reproductive justice news into practical action. Jennie Wetter , host of the multi-award-winning podcast RePROs Fight Back (an initiative of the Population Institute), breaks down what reproductive justice actually means, far beyond the narrow “abortion-only” framing. We dig into how the show functions as a real, strategic tool for nonprofit work: keeping people informed, spotlighting community partners, and ending every episode with clear ways to fight back . We talk about building a podcast as a public resource , why “success” isn’t just downloads, and how to stay grounded when the issues feel like a constant fire hose. You’ll also get practical ideas for becoming a resource in your own community without burning out. Note: The first ~15–18 minutes include a ranty current-events catch-up recorded in late July 2025. I LOVE this part (it's cathartic!) If you prefer to jump to the self-care + strategy portion, skip ahead to around minute 18 . Listener action list Pick one and do it this week: Wear your values : grab merch that sparks conversations (tinyurl.com/reproFBmerch). Be the friend with receipts : bookmark accurate resources so you can point people to real clinics/info when needed. Check your state’s grade : explore reportcards.reprofightback.com and identify one area to push on locally. Support direct services : donate to or volunteer with local practical-support networks (transportation, childcare, clinic escorting, etc.). Go local : show up where policy becomes real—school board meetings, city council, state reps.

Balance, Boundaries, and Blob Time: Enneagram-Based Self-Care as Creative Leadership with Leigh Cambre
Jan 5, 202655 min
How do creative leaders build capacity in a sociopolitical Hellscape? In this episode of The Creative Impostor (Creativity and Media as Resistance), Andrea Klunder talks with small business coach Leigh Cambre about building leadership capacity during a difficult sociopolitical moment. Leigh defines resistance as supporting the frontline through boundaries, balance, and structurally designed self-care, especially scheduling "two slots of blob time" each week for judgment-free spontaneity. The conversation uses the Enneagram as a practical tool for identifying over-coping patterns that replicate into business leadership, reframes "follow your passion" advice with a more sustainable "money supports choices" sequence, and explores how compassion and self-knowledge reduce "us vs. them" thinking.

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.
