Thanks to Jhenielle for this question! 

Jhenielle asked: [summarized] How do you balance the flow of information that you send to clients in a way that they're not getting too much information and overwhelm, but also not sending too little information. When some people hire you immediately after finding out they’re pregnant and others in the 3rd trimester who do you balance what to send to both of those people and automate some of that?

Thanks to Amy for this question! 

Amy asked: "She asks a question around working with insurance companies. Do most doulas work with insurance companies or is it too difficult to navigate the system? Is it worth it because of the low pay compared to private clients? Is it a pain knowing how to submit for payment? Lots of different insurance pieces. She says specifically Medicaid is something she's looking at, but any insurance.”

Part of my rest time is the prep work! So right now, I’m typing this in June and scheduling it in June and that allows me to rest in July. Rest in business has to be super intentional so that the business keeps running smoothly in the meantime. It shouldn’t be that everything comes to a screeching halt in July, but instead that my body and brain are less needed for that parts that are still happening!

Rest sparks growth and creativity! Remember how our parents used to say you have to sleep so we can play tomorrow? Turns out they were/are right! Rest is the way our bodies and brains get new ideas and new fuel and new desire. So often our businesses get stuck because we don’t have the capacity to dream and change and grow and critically think about what we’re doing.

Doulas are insane. That’s right. You read that correctly. Why, you ask? Because we do the same thing over and over and expect different results! If we don’t stop and shift things our business will never be different. That’s just how it works my friend. Dive into this with me today.

Often when doula work is new to us we kind of suck at it at first! My first year as a full-time doula was a whole dumpster fire. It involved puking, lots of anxiety stomach stuff, tons of extra periods from the hormones, and just general burnout!

Today’s Question:

“First time business situation here, I had a client who had an earlier birth at 34 weeks. They asked to switch out birth support for postpartum doula support which is an option in her contract for a scheduled c-section and then they have now ghosted the payment. Payment was scheduled to go out at 35 weeks, so one week after they delivered and of course, she says she's learning lessons of course, but even if they chose to not have any doula, then they should still be paying that second invoice.”
