In this episode, I’m sharing the five books that had a profound impact on me last year—Atomic Habits, Sink Reflections, The Magic of Thinking Big, I Will Teach You to Be Rich, and Womb. These books didn’t just teach me new ideas; they changed how I approach my daily life, my dreams, and even my finances.

I’ll talk about how each book influenced my year and how the recurring theme of “growth over perfection” shaped my perspective. I am convinced that reflecting on books in community amplifies their power.

If you love personal growth, inspiring reads, and the idea of meaningful conversations, this episode is for you!

My name is Johanna Canady, and I believe you can be your own life doula—by getting curious about your desires, doing everything you can to live your best life, and asking for the support you need. In The Doula Johanna Podcast, I dive into all that life has to offer: death, sex, and money, as well as birth, health, and manifesting. Let’s explore how to show up for ourselves with love, courage, and curiosity. Subscribe today so you never miss and episode.

Death is a conversation most of us avoid—but what if we didn’t have to? In this episode, I share the deeply personal reasons behind my decision to train as an end-of-life doula.

🌿 I’ll talk about the profound experience of witnessing my uncle’s peaceful transition in hospice care and how it shaped my view of death.

🌿 I’ll explore the parallels between birth and death, and how our modern detachment from these natural processes has fueled unnecessary fear.

🌿 I’ll explain why I want to show up for my loved ones with courage and knowledge when their time comes.

🌿 And finally, why I believe we only get one chance to do death well—and why I want to make that moment as supported and meaningful as possible.

This episode isn’t just about my journey—it’s an invitation for you to start a new relationship with death. Let’s get curious, lean into the discomfort, and create more space for love, support, and connection in life’s final chapter.

Tune in and join the conversation. It’s time to face death with open hearts and open minds.

Hey there, and Happy New Year! 🎉 Let’s kick off 2025 by getting real about our dreams and goals.

In this episode, I’m sharing how I’m doula-ing myself through the process of goal-setting—making space for what truly matters to me and taking the leap to go after it, even if it’s a little scary.

I’ll tell you about my two big focuses for the year:

💞 Putting my marriage first with monthly date nights (because connection takes intention).

🎙️ Committing to weekly podcasting (even when it feels like a big commitment) to grow my work and trust that showing up consistently can lead to amazing things.

This isn’t about me telling you what to do—it’s about sharing how I’m taking my own goals seriously and inviting you to do the same. Let’s make 2025 the year we create more time and space for the things we really want.

🎧 Tune in to join the conversation and take that first step toward honoring your dreams.
