Have you ever found your client struggling with the decision to continue feeding baby from their body? What did you do? How did you advice them on this decision.  Did you try to talk them out of it or did you support their decision to stop? 

Have your clients given you negative feed about your support? Was it constructive or did you feel attacked and get angry? 

This week, Stephanie, Suzanne and Kim discuss why even if the feedback is negative it can still be a learning experience and why open discussion and clarity are key in our work as doulas and childbirth educators. 

This week Stephanie and Kim discuss things that have happened to them during a birth that their clients never knew.  Creating that aura of calm and confidence can sometimes an Oscar worthy performance. 

This week, and a major upset on Instagram, The Doulas discuss the benefits of using Instagram for your business.  Does it help? Is it a waste of time or incredibly beneficial? 

This week Suzanne and Kim hold down the fort while Steph supports a birthing parent.  We talk about what our daily and weekly lives look like as birth worker.  Spoiler alert, its not your typical 9-5.  And that's the way we like it! 

This week we respond to a topic request from a listener.  We talk about Virtual Support and how to make it best for you and your clients. 

You've got questions, and we've got answers.  We've collected a few questions over the past couple of weeks and are sitting down and answering them in the most pragmatic way we know how. 

If you have a question let us know, you can email us at [email protected] or hit us up on Instagram.
