12: Free Friday Talk: Doulas Without Babies

from The Birth Lounge Podcast · host HeHe Stewart

In this episode of Friday Free Talk, I dive into the stigma that in order to be a good doula, you must have children yourself. "Do you have children?" is a questions that is often asked in the birth world and there can definitely be some judgment attached. I get down to the nitty gritty and pretty raw about what makes a good doula, how to put together your birth team, and why you should be selfish during pregnancy! I even dive into the social construct of how gender plays a role among the birth community. Let's dig into a double standard that I love discussing!    Shownotes: Check out the blog!
