Perfectionism in Perimenopause: Why Your Old Coping Skills Stop Working in Midlife
Dec 4, 202547 minS0
<p>“You are already enough. Even in the ways you feel like you’re falling short.” - M.J. Schwartz</p><p>Perfectionism shows up in sneaky ways in midlife. You might feel stuck, unable to start something until you know you can do it perfectly. Or you may find yourself people-pleasing, overthinking, shutting down when you feel overwhelmed, or getting frustrated that your old coping strategies no longer work. With shifting hormones, a more sensitive nervous system, and the emotional weight midlife brings, perfectionism hits harder and takes a bigger toll on your health.</p><p>Today, I’m joined b...
The Less Stressed Holiday: 3 Steps to Reclaim Your Energy (Even If You’re Overwhelmed)
Nov 27, 202516 minS0
<p>“Women over 40 are entering the holidays carrying an invisible load, an emotional backpack that nobody sees.” - Leslie Duffy</p><p>The holidays hit differently when you’re a woman in midlife. You’re trying to keep work on track, manage family dynamics, support aging parents, show up for your kids, and hold everything together at home. Then the holiday season arrives with parties, more expectations, food triggers, social pressure, and a calendar that feels like it’s filling itself. It’s a lot, and most of us are already running on fumes before the season even begins.</p><p>What makes...
How to Start Exercising Again in Midlife (When You’re Exhausted and Short on Time) with April Hattori from Yes2Next
Nov 20, 202545 minS0
<p>“It’s never too late to start exercising.” - April Hattori</p><p>Almost every midlife woman describes the 80-year-old that she wants to be as strong, steady, mobile and living life on her own terms. An essential part of getting there is incorporating movement in your daily life. The good news is, movement doesn’t have to mean a long run, a heavy gym session, or 45 minutes of intense cardio. Our bodies are changing, our energy isn’t the same every day, and forcing yourself into a workout you dread is the quickest way to do nothing. What you need i...
How to Order Confidently in Social Situations (and Still Hit Your Health Goals)
Nov 13, 202511 minS0
<p>“You don’t have to eat like everyone else to belong.” - Leslie Duffy</p><p>Picture this: you’re out to dinner, the lighting is perfect, your outfit is on point, and you’re committed to your health goals. But then your friend orders fries, your partner gets a cocktail, and that little voice in your head says, “I can just start over on Monday.” You know what to do, but in the moment, it’s hard to follow through. That’s not weakness, it’s your brain doing what it’s wired to do: keep you comfortable, connected, and part of...
Three Steps To Build A Hormone-Friendly Plate: So You Can Balance Hormones, Lose Weight, and Have More Energy
Nov 7, 202517 minS0
<p>“We were taught how to diet, but we were never taught how to eat for hormone balance or to support our metabolism. ” - Leslie Duffy</p><p> </p><p>When we were younger, many of us were told that carbs are bad, fats make you fat, and protein is for athletes. Then, when our hormones start to shift in midlife, if we try to use those old rules, we end up exhausted, craving sugar, and stuck in a cycle that feels impossible to break. Your hormones have changed, which means the way you nourish your body also has to chan...
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.
