Adding needed NUANCE to the "Doing births for FREE when new" conversation

I read a comment on a doula facebook page that sparked the importance for this nuanced conversation. I am typically in the camp of charging for all the births you attend! Even as a newbie and YES even for your certifying births. That said, I wanted to bring some nuance to the conversations because there is duality to everything and nothing in business or life is black and white. The ENERGY behind WHY you are doing births for fee or not matters more than anything else. In this episode I talk about why charging MAY BE the best option and why doing a birth or 2 for free MAY ALSO be a better option for you. It all goes back to it being an equal energy exchange and I dig into examples of how this can look. Regardless, it requires introspection and knowing yourself. You can't simply base your decisions or prices on what others are doing or based on what you're "supposed" to do. My warning is to not let "imposter syndrome" or fear of not getting hired drive the car in this important decision! Ask yourself: Why am I charging what I am charging? Why am I doing births for free? Check in with yourself and how it feels. When you're READY to get CLEAR and get personalized coaching around this topic, come join us inside Doulapreneur AF!
