Ep 74: Are We Over-Optimizing Baby Sleep?
Aug 18, 202616 min
Are we over-optimizing baby sleep and trying to make it “perfect”? Strategies that make sleep easier are worthwhile, but when we expect that if we simply “do it right”, we’ll reach the finish line with sleep, we forget that sleep is not a machine or circuit board that just has to be put together right to “work”. In this episode, Heather Boyd, pediatric occupational therapist and certified sleep coach explores optimizing strategies that support sleep while also taking the pressure off of thinking that you need to work harder on your baby’s sleep to make it better.

Ep 72: Your Baby, Your Environment, Your Routine: Where to start to understand sleep.
Aug 9, 202631 min
Join Heather Boyd, Occupational Therapist, sleep coach, and mother of 3 as she explores how to ask the right questions to solve your baby’s sleep. As an Occupational Therapist, Heather knows the value of understanding who your baby is, where they sleep, what sleep looks like, and what routine your baby has. She delves into each of these questions using her BEAR framework (Baby, Environment, Activity, and Routine), a framework she has been using for several years to understand her clients and their challenges better. Whether you are a sleep-deprived parent or a sleep coach, this framework will help you focus your attention and build your understanding in order to support your baby's sleep. Here’s to asking the questions that lead you and your baby to more rest, connection, and ease. What you can do next: Subscribe to this podcast and share it with a friend!

How do I think about infant sleep as an occupational therapist and holistic sleep educator? What framework allows me to understand and address your family’s sleep challenges? In this episode, I outline the 3 pillars of my practice, and how I use these three pillars on our first call together to get a clear picture of what sleep looks like for your family. Understanding these 3 pillars lets me start honing in on what we’ll focus on in our work together. The 3 pillars are: Development (sleep and other milestones, temperament, sensory development, social-emotional development) Environment (not just the physical environment, but the way the day is laid out, and how parents are doing, too!) Attachment (the way your baby seeks attachment changes with development; finding ways to meet the attachment needs while also shaping and supporting sleep development) If this approach resonates with you, I’d be happy to connect with you on a 30 minute screening call. Families often leave that call with more confidence that getting sleep coaching support is the right next step. Even families who chose not to pursue coaching after the screening call still report feeling heard (sometimes for the first time in a long time) and more hopeful.

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.
