Sep 22, 20261h 12mS1

In this episode of The Splitting Atoms Podcast , Carl Marcotte reflects on the role service has played throughout his life and career, and how that mindset has shaped the way he approaches leadership.

Aug 12, 202659 minS1
Sometimes, the first person we have to make room for is ourselves. In this episode of The Splitting Atoms Podcast , Catherine O'Hagan reflects on the courage it takes to find your voice, recognize the value you bring, and create space for yourself in places where that hasn't always felt easy. Through her own experiences, Cathy has learned that making space for yourself can become the foundation for something bigger. As we grow into who we are and become more comfortable occupying our own space, we also become better equipped to recognize when someone else needs room to step forward. The conversation explores belonging, personal growth, and the role each of us can play in creating environments where people feel welcomed and able to contribute as themselves. Cathy's perspective offers a thoughtful reminder that leadership isn't only about the space we occupy. It's also about what we choose to do with that space once we have it—and how we can use our own experiences to make the path wider for others.

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.

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.
