Pain Free Birth

#67 | What Every New Doula Needs to Know About Supporting Birth


Listen Later

In this episode, Karen sits down with Kendall Pattillo — a mom of two (with one on the way!), wife, follower of Christ, and graduate of the Pain Free Birth Doula Mastermind. Although she’s just beginning her doula career, Kendall has already supported a variety of powerful births: VBACs, hospital births, birth center births, and home births.

Whether you’re a new doula searching for wisdom, a mom preparing for birth, or a partner curious about how doulas support families, this episode is full of encouragement, practical insights, and inspiration.

Tune in to hear:

  • Kendall’s calling into birth work and how God opened the doors for her
  • The powerful VBAC story she supported at her very first birth as a doula
  • Why doulas are both servants and shields in the birth space
  • Practical doula tips — knee pads, birth stools, showers, and headphones
  • How doulas enhance a partner’s role instead of replacing it
  • Lessons on presence, boundaries, and avoiding burnout as a new doula
  • The confidence and tools Kendall gained through the Pain Free Birth Doula Mastermind
