We Need to Talk About GLP-1s And Eating Disorders
Apr 13, 202637 minS0
<p>GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy are changing the healthcare landscape fast, but there’s a problem we can’t afford to ignore: appetite and weight loss interventions can collide with eating disorders in ways that many clinics are not screening for. When that happens, the risks aren’t abstract. They show up as restriction that ramps up quietly, recovery skills that get harder to practice, and medical complications that can be overlooked when the scale is moving “the right way.” <br/><br/>I sat down with Shauna Melbourne, RD, founder of ED for RDs and a certified eating disorder sp...
Chasing Perfect: Why Perfectionism Drives Disordered Eating (and How to Heal) with Stephanie Huls
Feb 17, 202635 minS0
<p>Perfection says you should already be there. Your body, your plate, your life—graded against a shifting standard that never names who is moving the goalposts. I invited therapist Stephanie Huls to help us untangle that trap and replace it with tools that actually help to rebuild our relationships with food.<br/><br/>We start by drawing a clean line between high standards and perfectionism. High standards align with values and allow growth; perfectionism is rigid, unforgiving, and fueled by "shoulds". When that mindset collides with diet culture’s changing rules—low carb, keto, high protein, “clean”—self-trust takes the hit. Tog...
Making Sense of PCOS with Trista Chan through Science, Food, and Compassion
Jan 20, 202637 minS0
<p>PCOS can feel like a maze: irregular cycles, relentless fatigue, cravings that don’t make sense, and advice that’s loud but rarely helpful. We invited Registered Dietitian and Nest and Nurture founder Trista Chan to map the terrain with clear science, practical nutrition, and a lot of compassion.<br/><br/>We start by decoding what PCOS actually is and how it’s diagnosed through the Rotterdam criteria—then we get honest about why care can feel inconsistent. Trista explains the nuance behind insulin resistance, why insulin isn’t the enemy, and how gentle, real-world strategies like timing your carbs and...
<p>Cravings can feel like a tidal wave—loud, urgent, and impossible to ignore—yet they’re far from random. We dig into what a craving actually is, how it differs from hunger, and why your brain can fixate on sweetness or crunch even when you “should” be fine. As a registered dietitian and certified intuitive eating counselor, I break down the science in plain language and show how biology, mindset, and environment combine to create that intense pull toward specific foods.<br/><br/>We start with the body’s signals: how undereating lowers blood sugar and flips on a survival res...
Emotional Eating Isn’t the Problem — Here’s What Is
Nov 20, 202517 minS0
<p>Shame says emotional eating is a flaw; we say it’s a signal. Heather Soman, registered dietitian and certified intuitive eating counselor, explores why turning to food during big feelings is both human and understandable—and how to respond with compassion while adding better tools. </p><p><br/></p><p>We unpack how childhood patterns, cultural scripts, and media moments shape comfort eating, from cookies after hard days to the classic breakup-and-ice-cream trope. </p><p><br/></p><p>Along the way, Heather shares reflective prompts to build an emotional vocabulary, spot body cues like tight chests or restless energy, and id...
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.
