Join me, Gigi Vera Vincent, your guide and postpartum doula, as we unpack the role of a doula in supporting the journey from pregnancy through to postpartum. This episode provides insights for expectant parents as I share my expertise on creating a nurturing birth environment, advocating for your birthing preferences, and establishing a supportive post-birth routine.

As we journey further, we shift our focus to the array of topics vital for a healthy pregnancy and a nourishing postpartum experience. I highlight the importance of proper nutrition, pelvic floor preparation, and the empowerment that comes from understanding various birthing methods. For new parents navigating the early stages of life with a newborn, I provide guidance on healing, sleep strategies, and hormone nourishment.
