Episode #24
Episode 24: How to prepare your young child for starting or returning to preschool/daycare or having a nanny/babysitter
Aug 19, 202626 min
Back to school is here! And the best way to prepare your child isn't teaching them to be independent or making them excited about school. It's helping them build familiarity, predictability, and relationships with the new caregiver/environment while giving them space to have feelings about the change. This episode focused on why and how to prepare your child for starting or returning to preschool, daycare, having a nanny or babysitter. This included: Reviewing research and providing examples on: Why preparing your child for a new caregiver matters How to prepare your child for the transition Describing strategies to use in your own parenting: Familiarize, don't overwhelm - help them know what to expect Practice the routine, not necessarily the separation Build the relationship with the caregiver beforehand whenever possible Talk about the transition—but don't constantly talk about it Validate instead of trying to eliminate separation feelings Keep goodbye routines short, predictable, and consistent Bring something familiar when the program allows it Use books and pretend play to talk about what to expect or act it out Talk with the caregiver about your specific child Suggesting books: “The Kissing Hand” by Audrey Penn “Llama Llama Meets the Babysitter” and “Llama Llama Misses Mama” by Anna Dewdney “I Love You All Day Long” by Francesca Rusackas “Maisy Goes to Preschool” by Lucy Cousins “The Night Before Preschool” by Natasha Wing “Froggy Goes to School” by Jonathan London “ABC School’s for Me!” by Susan B.

Episode 22: An introduction to temperament: What it is & the different traits
Aug 4, 202632 min
People talk about temperament all the time, but not everyone knows what it actually means for THEIR child. This episode focused on defining what temperament is and explaining the traits that make it up. This included: Reviewing research and providing examples on: What temperament is What the old “types” were The 5 main temperament traits The difference between temperament and cholic The importance of goodness of fit Describing key takeaways: Your child's temperament isn't something to fix—it's something to understand. Different children need different parenting, even within the same family. Your job isn't to change your child's temperament. It's to help them learn to work with it while building the skills they need to thrive. Suggesting books: “Raising Your Spirited Child” by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka “The Orchid and the Dandelion” by W.

Episode 21: Parenting threenagers: The difference (and what to expect) between age 2 and 3 for child behavior
Jul 29, 202635 min
Everyone says “terrible twos” but as a parent, age 3 can actually be much harder. One of the biggest shifts between 2 and 3 is that children become much more capable without becoming much more regulated. That’s often why parenting can feel more difficult. This episode focused on the developmental differences between age 2 and age 3 and how to best support this as a parent. This included: Reviewing research on: Executive function and self-regulation development at 3 The role of language and cognition development Three-year olds’ NEED for independence Why whining, screaming, and negotiating increase The difference between knowing and doing for behavior Describing strategies to use in your own parenting: Staying neutral and calm in your reactions Validate your child’s feelings Hold boundaries warmly and calmly (see Episode 3 for more on boundaries) Talk less during meltdowns - save teaching for later Look for WHY the behavior is happening (hunger, tired, overstimulation, etc.) Expect repetition and be consistent Practice self-regulation with games (red light/green light, freeze dance) or pretend play Suggesting books: “The Rabbit Listened” by Cori Doerrfeld “When Sophie Gets Angry - Really Really Angry” by Molly Bang “Little Monkey Calms Down” by Michael Dahl “Llama Llama Mad at Mama” by Anne Dewdney “I Can Do It Myself!” by Diane Adams “The Pout Pout Fish and the Mad, Mad Day” by Deborah Diesen “The Whole Brain Child” by Dan Siegel & Tina Payne-Bryson “How to Talk so Little Kids Will Listen” by Joanna Faber & Julie King “Raising a Secure Child” by Kent Hoffman, Glen Cooper, and Bert Powell Support my show!

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.
