No More Playing Hide-And-Seek With Your Message.
It’s Time To Step Into The Spotlight to Be Seen & Heard.
For socially conscious visionaries who want to share their story & work in the world with complete clarity on podcasts — so that you CAN POSITION YOURSELF AS THE sought-after EXPERT IN YOUR industry.
As a podcast guesting expert *and* pro baker…
I know it’s time for that matcha green tea tart your voice to rise.
But you’ve been wading through the *very* complex podcasting pond, feeling like you…
Don’t know what message or topics to prioritize in your pitches (*cringes and presses send anyways*)
Can’t quite articulate what sets you apart
(“*see* me for who I really am, please?”)
Know that you have the capacity to serve bigger and more intentionally (but how do you distill that into a 45-minute interview?)
*Should* know what to say, because you’re a natural writer (“so why can’t I write about how awesome I am??”)
And what you really want is to…
Confidently articulate your key message — and customise it when needed — for your unique audience
Stop hiding and step into the digital spotlight (uhh, some IRL speaking opps would be cool too, right?)
Show the world *why* you’re so good at what you do — and gain the perspective to communicate that
Clarify the go-to podcast topics you should be pitching, so you always have some guiding pillars for the lifetime of your business
Learn why intentionally building authentic relationships with podcast hosts and their audience is a strategy *everyone* should be implementing
*Enter the podcast pitch makeover artist…*
What if you could get all of the above…
In a week?
Whether you’ve got some of the key pieces down, but need to hone in on a specific area (you’re so close!)...
Or you’re deeply struggling with confidence but *deep breath* you’re ready to give that visibility goal a real shot..
And you know you need to hire an expert to lock *ALL* this down for you…
…but you’ve only got so many dolla-dolla bills to keep your marketing in check and outsourcing to an external PR agency just doesn't feel right (your bookkeeper is applauding you right now)
LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO
The VIP Spotlight Experience
This is the only way to work with me 1:1 to have access to my expert pair of eyes and strategic brain on where you’re currently stuck in the podcast guesting process.
You'll receive my 101%, focused attention on your business for the day (so stock up on the scones and clotted cream, because we’re going to become pod pals)...
You’ll get 1:1 Mai-kee time that gives you instant clarity and confidence to move forward ASAP.
Most importantly:
This is YOUR space to share your story and have someone *else* reflect your power back to you.
Active and intentional listening to extract your key messaging themes is *basically* my superpower… And every client I’ve worked with has always said:
Allow me to hold space for your light to shine through — so we can amplify your impact and share your heart-centered approach with the world.

I want this Ripple of Impact for you, too.
GIMME THAT ROI, MAI-KEE!
Let’s get to work!
VIP Spotlight Experience
Something missing the mark in your messaging and you’re not sure why? We’ll dive into your messaging and strategy to hone in on your pitch topics, your power-positioning story and turn your expertise into your suite of signature topics you can run with to implement right away.
A Custom Podcast Strategy to align your visibility goals with your business
Your Story Map to showcase your story in short, medium, and long versions so you to refer back to it anytime you need to tell your story succinctly on interviews
Signature Topic Suite for you to easily access your core topics and sub-topics to pitch & speak about in interviews
Walk away with 3 Ready-to-Send Podcast Pitches you can send straight to podcasters to guest on their show!
Transcripts of each of your sessions for you to refer back to for your own use (messaging goldmine much?)
*NEW Pay In Full BONUS* 10 Pitches sent for you to kickstart your podcast guesting journey (Only applicable for those who invest in the Full VIP Spotlight Experience!)
5 hours total, spread across a week to allow us to percolate and rest our brains (the live process will be through Tuesday - Thursday, and all of your deliverables will be in your inbox on the following Tuesday).
Here's how it works with our 3 stage process:
Safer Storytelling (via Zoom): We're told we need to keep our stories "succinct" right from the get go, right? The problem is, starting with succinctness often misses the best parts of your story.
That's why this will be *your* space to storytell in an unfiltered and uncensored way so I can uncover your unique Gems of Genius that naturally position you as the sought-after expert in your industry.
Ideation Incubator (via Zoom): This is where we'll co-create your suite of signature leadership topics so you know exactly what to say when people ask you: "What can you talk about?". I ask you questions, we bounce ideas, and you'll walk away from this session with crystal clear clarity on which topics best reflect your work in the world.
Purposeful Pitching (via Zoom OR Voxer): Sit back and relax while I transform all 3 of your signature leadership topics into ready-to-send pitches! When I'm finished, I'll share the first draft with you to tweak accordingly (so it sounds like you!). I answer any last questions you have and polish the pitches off so they're good to go!
Option #1: The Full VIP Spotlight Experience (All 3 stages I mentioned above and I'll also send 10 pitches for you to give you a head start! on your Podcast Guesting Journey!) - $5500
Option #2: The Safer Storytelling Session (2 Hours) - $1500
Option #3: The Ideation Incubator Session (2 Hours) - $1500
(Interest free payment plans of 2 or 3 months are available!)
In summary, here's how it all breaks down:
You know who says it best?
Success Stories, Client Love, Reviews, whatever you want to call ’em – here are a couple of amazing humans I’ve had the pleasure of working with (be sure to click the arrows, there's a lot of amazing stories to share!):
"Mai-kee truly holds space for you in a thoughtful, unrushed way and delivers authentic messaging magic within minutes."
As someone whose job is typically to listen to the stories of others, it was such a pleasure to be on the other side and receive. Before I worked with Mai-kee, my only visibility opportunities have been invitation-only and my cold pitches heard crickets.
For a long time, sitting down to figure out what I consider myself to be an "expert" in or how to own my story — and pitch both — have left me feeling stumped. (And I'm a copywriter.)
After our VIP Day, I now have clear and compelling topic suites that I can confidently pitch, personalised templates I'll keep returning to, and she even whipped up a custom pitch for a podcast I've had my eye on.
So I know that my business and future podcast pitches will be eternally grateful for Mai-kee's expertise
ZAFIRA RAJAN
Sensory Storyteller & Copywriter
"I unlocked my biz goal of being featured in Forbes this year - and the foundational story and ideas for my piece were uncovered during my VIP Spotlight Day thanks to Mai-kee!"
Before working with Mai-kee I used to actively avoid visibility opportunities. My introverted brain was stuck on a rolling loop of “What if’s” clouded in doubt and fear, “What if I froze when they asked me a question, What could I pitch that was actually interesting…”
Our VIP Spotlight Day was a turning point for me. Mai-kee listened with empathy as we wove through stories that I sobbed through, ones that made me laugh, and others I was proud to tell. She helped me identify key moments that highlighted my business goals so I know have a solid suite of ideas to pitch and a few stories to rely on.
Plus, she helped me practice telling an emotional story that was a turning point in my business and hit the subtle line between bursting into tears or shutting off my emotions.
Mai-kee’s made the podcast guesting process something I actually look forward to now! I can relax into the 1-on-1 conversations I have with podcast hosts knowing I have stories to draw on.

"If you want to have a winning pitch drafted ready to hit send, communicate your story in an impactful and meaningful way sans 'waffle', and get an in-depth look at how you can create a podcast guesting strategy, Mai-kee is the person you need to work with!”
Before working with Mai-kee, I was about to give up on pitching podcasts because I didn't think my pitches worked. I felt like I rambled a lot and I felt like I didn't have a good enough story worthy to be on podcasts.
Throughout our VIP Spotlight Day, I learned to tell my story in a succinct way and in a way that sat well with me. I also felt like I had a story worth telling and that might help others.
Mai-kee is a delight! She's such a great listener and she really lifted the curtain the whole podcast guesting strategy for me.

Award Winning Business Efficiency Expert, Personal Productivity Strategist & Founder of Ponderlily Paper & Planners
"Mai-kee was able to hold the space for me to feel safe enough to open up and "go deep" on my stories without any judgement."
After she extracted all the gems out of me, I realized that I do have great things to share - and I also found my bigger mission and why. After working together in our VIP Day, I felt confident and clear about what overall message I can share with people, beyond just podcasts.
No more sitting around and waiting for clarity to hit me. I had peace of mind and confidence that Mai-kee would get it right for me. She'd shown great empathy and took great care of me at every touch point during the whole journey.

"Mai-kee is the go-to expert on all things podcast pitching, and wow, did she ever deliver!"
2020 is my year of visibility, and I knew one of the best ways to get my name out there would be as a guest on podcasts where my ideal clients tune in. But with so many pods, and so little time to listen to them all (or know how to pitch them), I knew I needed to find a solution.
Enter Mai-kee, who helped strategize based on my business, my customer, and my style of content and conversation.
Tamara Glick
Personal Stylist & Content Copywriter
Her time, her coaching and her attention was incredibly helpful for me on a lot of different levels - tactical for sure, but also in terms of feeling solid in myself and feeling more confident.
I recently did a VIP Spotlight Day with Mai-kee, and it was really eye-opening. Walking into it I’ve already done some work on my messaging and how I wanted to show up on podcasts and through the process, I kinda redefined it all from the ground up.
From telling my WHOLE story and having her hold that space, it really allowed me to process thoughts and feelings around what it is to be visible and guest on podcasts, and think about how I really want to show up.
And so, we worked through that and got to change a lot of my beliefs and feelings about what I need to be as a visible business owner.
So the intangibles are just as valuable as the tactical stuff. Obviously I have a lot of things in my bag of tricks that I’m looking forward to using when it comes to pitching podcasts, and in terms of better understanding better who I want to reach out to and how to reach out to them.
I can’t recommend this highly enough, this has been a really fantastic experience! Thank you Mai-kee!

The VIP day with Mai-Kee was so personalised and special. It was packed full of top tips from her extensive Podcast Guesting experience!
Before we started working with Mai-Kee, we knew that we needed to bring in more leads for the business and wanted to try guesting on podcasts.
We had approached a handful of podcast hosts. One lead got a reply but then came to nothing. We felt a bit lost. I get rave reviews for my speaking and teaching appearances and so this was disappointing.
We came away from Mai-kee's VIP Spotlight Day feeling that we'd learned loads and had all sorts of stuff that we could put in to practice easily straight away.
It was also encouraging in the sense that we felt we could do it, and we could see why our previous efforts had failed. Paul (Rachel's team member to implement the strategies) felt so inspired that he dived into the podcast research immediately and has continued excitedly since.

"Mai-kee added these really personal touches to make me feel that this experience truly was just for me!"
I have a goal to be a guest on podcasts this year, and realised that I was struggling who to pitch to, what to pitch, and the whole process - so I knew I wanted to work with her.
In our time together, she really listened to me as I talked about my business, and she helped to pull out the gems that I say all the time - but I never thought of them as topics before because I’m too close to my own business. So we got really clear on my topics, and I walked away with a step by step plan on how to pitch them to podcasts.

"We got SO much accomplished in our time together, and I learned how to not only make a successful pitch, but I also came away with a fully written pitch that was ready to go!"
Before working with Mai-kee, I truly had no idea where to start in the process with podcast pitching, but she has a very clear process to help prepare me.
I’m SO grateful to have these new tools in my business toolbox, and feel so much more confident in my pitching skills moving forward!

No worries! My existing client base is spread around the whole globe, so I’m already used to working with the time differences anyway.
When you submit your intake form (via the button below), I'll ask about your timezone when we have our Alignment Consult.
From there if we wind up working together, I'll use my scheduler Calendly to find a time where we’re both fully awake and caffeinated– so don’t worry, I’ll make sure the time works for the both of us!
Nope~ This experience has been designed with introverts in mind (Zoom fatigue is REAL!)
So I've balanced our VIP Spotlight Experience schedule to ensure that we get all the things done without feeling burned out by the end.
Here's how it will look schedule wise:
- Day 1 for Safer Storytelling = 2 Hours on Zoom
- Day 2 for The Ideation Incubator = 2 Hours on Zoom
- Day 3 for Purposeful Pitching = A choice between 30 minutes on Zoom OR a designated time on Voxer
(You can opt to merge Days 1 & 2 into a 4 Hour intensive with a break in the middle!)
Sure can! I typically offer 2 or 3 month payment plans as I do ask that all of the instalments are paid before our time together in the VIP Spotlight Experience commences.
Of course, if you would an extended payment plan, we can chat about that in our consult.
All payments are in USD and can be paid either by Stripe or via Paypal.
*sniffs* I’m slightly hurt that you’re already thinking about this 🥺.
Hah, with all jokes aside, the VIP Spotlight Experience is LIVE (well, online anyway) with me, and so all payments are final and non-refundable, this includes instalments for payment plans too.
So while I don't provide a money back guarantee, you do get my 100% Focus Guarantee: “When you buy my time, you get my 100% undivided attention and focus.”
So, when you've booked a VIP Spotlight Experience with me, you’re my ONLY priority during that time.
Absolutely! If you only need help with a specific part of the process, you can opt for:
Option #1: The Safer Storytelling Session (with the Story Map deliverable!) for $1500 (USD)
Option #2: The Ideation Incubator Session (with your Signature Suite of Topics deliverable) for $1500 (USD)
We can decide what's best for you on our "Alignment Consult".
At the present time, I do not provide the Purposeful Pitching (Stage 3) as a standalone offer as I require Stage 1 & 2 to do that part true justice.
I only have the capacity to take on 1 Full VIP Spotlight Experience, and up to 2 shorter sessions (for either Safer Storytelling or The Ideation Incubator) per month.
As a result, you can expect a 4-8 week timeframe depending on this availability and whichever payment option you choose.
So if you're interested in seeing if this is a mutual fit, let's chat here >>>
(I'll ask in the form whether you prefer to have your consult via Zoom or Voxer)
If your cuppa of English Breakfast tea is going cold — I’m *still* here, ready to answer your questions.
