029 Wellness & The Rise of Lagree
Sep 17, 202640 min
"When you take that step back and realize it's okay to not always feel like you have to be in competition, but rather just stay true to yourself." From a mother of triplets discovering a local workout studio 16 years ago to becoming a Senior Master Trainer and leading global community relations, Heather Perren’s journey within the Lagree Fitness ecosystem is a masterclass in organic career evolution. In this episode of Well, Well, Well, Heather sits down with host Laura to dissect the rapid expansion of Lagree: scaling from 550 to over 1,500 global studios in just two years. They dive deep into the business side of boutique fitness, explore how Lagree’s accessible licensing model empowers new studio owners, and discuss the misnomers surrounding the "Pilates vs. Lagree" industry debate. Plus, Heather shares an inside look at the forthcoming technology revolutionizing the workout—including tempo lights and automated spring systems—and offers key takeaways on how studio owners can thrive by prioritizing community and instructor quality over competition.
"If you stay in that hustle for too long, it leads to burnout." What does true freedom look like for a boutique fitness founder? For Andrea Isabelle Lucas, author of Own It All and founder of Barre & Soul, it meant transforming a side hustle born from rock bottom into a multi-location fitness empire—and then stepping away from the daily operations entirely. Today, Andrea manages her East Coast studios from a beach house on the West Coast, working shorter days, trusting her team completely, and seeing her highest profit margins yet. But her path wasn't typical. Andrea joins Laura to share her incredible journey navigating life as a teen mom and domestic violence survivor before building a six-location brand. In this transparent and deeply inspiring conversation, Andrea and Laura pull back the curtain on the exact operational, financial, and mindset shifts required to break free from the daily grind and scale a sustainable, highly profitable business. Together, they dive into why open-book management completely changes employee buy-in, how physical distance can actually force you to become the visionary leader your business needs, and the realities of investing in high-level fractional support. Andrea also shares a beautiful, humorous look at what it feels like to finally reclaim her personal freedom and rewrite her life on her own terms. Whether you are currently sweeping the floors of your own studio or dreaming of expanding your footprint, this episode is your ultimate permission slip to start before you are ready and build a business that runs without you.

"Teachers have the gift of witnessing our students. Leaders have the gift of witnessing our teams and our people." What happens when you combine real street smarts, deep mindful practice, and a refusal to treat your employees like numbers on a spreadsheet? In this episode, Laura connects with Danni Pomplun, the founder of the iconic San Francisco-based HAUM Studios, who gives an inside look at how consumer expectations have changed over the last few years. Danni shares his deeply raw and moving backstory, detailing how the practice of yoga served as a lifeline during a turbulent, substance-heavy period of his youth. He shares his journey from cleaning studio toilets to earning a scholarship for teacher training, moving to San Francisco to teach at the legendary Yoga Tree, and ultimately becoming an entrepreneur. Danni explains why today's clients are starving for wisdom over data, how he implements "no phone zones" to encourage community, and why treating people well through 401k matching and comprehensive mental health benefits is the ultimate bare minimum for business longevity.

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?
