I am so excited to share this hot topics episode where I interview Lauren Costine. She is a doula and health coach. We go over what a doula is, tips for hiring a doula and also what you can expect from having a doula. Lauren explains the benefits of having a doula at your side specially in a hospital setting as well as a postpartum doula once you are home and we also talk a little bit about trauma during labor and birth.

Here is a link to Lauren's site:
