Sabia and I talk about all the ins and outs of becoming a doula. Including the difference between a doula and midwife, what it means to be a “full spectrum” doula, training vs. self-educating, to certify or not to certify, insurance/liability, the different types of doulas (there are many!), finding your speciality/niche, pricing, knowing when you’re ready for your first client, and avoiding burnout.

About Sabia: Sabia Wade is a revolutionary full-spectrum doula, educator, and the founder of Birthing Advocacy Doulas and For The Village Doula Services. She works to elevate the voices and experiences of marginalized communities and embraces her role as a liberator of self by birthing new and hidden aspects of individuals…while nurturing the spaces within them that have never known love. All with the goal of autonomy, justice, and equity for all.
