What if the best leadership lessons came from kids themselves? Welcome to the Lil' Leaders Podcast, where children share real stories and everyday experiences that reveal the leadership skills they're developing through friendships, challenges, successes, and everyday moments. Hosted by award-winning teacher and children's author Tina Shepardson, each episode features authentic conversations with kids about building confidence, developing communication skills, strengthening friendship skills, practicing teamwork, growing resilience, kindness, empathy, and responsibility. Together, we explore questions many parents wonder about as their children grow and develop: -How do I help my child become more confident? -How can kids develop leadership skills? -How do children learn to use responsibility and independence consistently? -How can I help my child improve communication skills? -What helps build resilience in children trying to bounce back from setbacks? -What helps kids become better decision-makers and strengthen their problem solving skills? -How can parents help children build healthy friendships, social and teamwork skills? -How do I help my child develop kindness, empathy, and emotional intelligence? Whether your child is outgoing or quietly finding their voice, this podcast celebrates the belief that every child develops leadership through everyday moments, learning to use their strengths to make a positive difference in the world around them. If you're interested in helping kids become leaders, raising confident kids, and supporting children as they develop communication, resilience, empathy, and thoughtful decision making skills, you're in the right place.

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.
