Pitch your episode. The host reads every pitch.

Emberkin runs on first-person chapters from women founders and from young people aging out of foster care — and on the mentors and operators walking both roads with them. The form below is your line to the editorial desk. We reply within two business days, faster if there’s a deadline in flight.

What we’re looking for

Two rooms. One editorial line.

The show only publishes first-person chapters — practical stories, not talking-point roundups. The four lanes below are steady editorial territory; the desk also hears cross-over pitches that bridge more than one.

01Editorial lane

Women founders

Practical, first-person chapters from operators in the first ~5 years — the moment of building, not the retrospective.

02Editorial lane

Foster-care youth

Lived stories from young people aging out of care: money, mentorship, chosen family, and the chapters between leaving home and finding one.

03Editorial lane

Cross-over voices

Mentors, family members, and operators who already do work that bridges both rooms and can speak comfortably to either audience.

04Editorial lane

Operationally concrete

Real numbers, real setbacks, real pivots — not motivational platitudes. We edit for the conversation, not the headlines.

After you submit

01
The editorial desk reads every pitch — typically within two business days.
02
A short call to align on the angle, the chapters, and the broadcast window.
03
A recording session (30–45 min) with the host and the AI production loop.

Tone context

Hear the tone before you pitch.

Every episode is a 30–45 minute conversation, edited for the chapters that make a guest sound like herself. Skim the catalog to read the show’s editorial line before you fill in the form — it gives the desk a shared frame of reference for your pitch.

The episode catalog

Short-form conversations with women founders and the mentors, families, and operators walking the road beside them. Reverse-chronological.

Application

Five fields. The desk reads it by hand.

The host reads every guest pitch before any AI ever sees it. You don’t need a media kit or a headshot — a sentence on what you’d talk about and a rough availability window are enough to start a conversation.

Before you send

The desk pins these so the editorial conversation starts from a clear place.

1. Real numbers and real setbacks beat polished talking points. The show edits for the conversation, not the headline.

2. Note your timezone so we can scope a recording window without a long email thread.

3.The two-audience default is “both” only if you’re sure it fits; we usually book the most specific room first.
