7| Naima Beckles

Welcome back to the Wild Womb podcast! This week is featuring Naima Beckles, doula and co-founder of For Your Birth. FYB is a partnership-based doula and childbirth education agency serving all the boroughs of New York City. This is the group I work with predominantly and Naima has been a major mentor and guide to me as I have grown as a doula and navigated the NYC birthing jungle. We get to hear all about how Naima came to this work after the homebirths of her two children and how she has started and grown this business into what it is today, alongside her partner Michele. Naima is doing amazing things as a support for other doulas, but more importantly for women out there who may not know all of their options for support. Her mission is to cast a wide net and to keep these conversations going so more people hear about the work we do and opt for the support in order to have better experiences. She is incredible, and I am so fortunate to work with her. http://www.foryourbirth.com
