065: In this episode, Kristin Revere of Gold Coast Doulas joins me to share the doula difference—how sacred life’s work like ours helps women prepare for birth, receive true postpartum and newborn support, and thrive through every transition. From her own birth stories to the many roles doulas play, we explore what it means to be cared for, honored, and guided through motherhood and beyond. Listeners will walk away with tangible takeaways, helpful resources, and a deeper understanding of why birth and postpartum support is an investment in the whole family.
