    76. The Real AF Doula Sales Script That Actually Converts: What to Say to Book More Clients

    Sales conversations feel vulnerable. Raw. Exposed. It’s not your certifications or your follower count or the fact that you don’t have the “perfect” line to say. It’s that somewhere along the way, you started performing. Polishing yourself.  Shrinking your edges.  Trying to sound like the “ideal doula” instead of the real you. And polished?  Polished doesn’t convert. In this episode, we’re throwing out the performative BS and getting back to what actually books clients: ✨ Your presence  ✨ Your intuition  ✨ Your human-to-human connection  ✨ Your ability to hold emotional space—not just in labor, but on the consult too I’m breaking down: 🔥 Why most doulas THINK they need a script (and why it makes them sound staged) 🔥 Why scripts fall flat when they’re built around the words instead of the woman saying them 🔥 Why a REAL script, the right framework, can actually set you free (when it’s built from your tone, your story, your philosophy around birth) 🔥 What to actually SAY to open someone up, connect deeply, and lead like the guide you already are This episode will crack you wide open in the best way. Because the truth is:  Your REAL AF voice books more clients than your perfect one ever will.

    75. Healing While Hustling: What It’s Really Like to Run a Doula Business Through Fear, Motherhood, and a Messy Middle

    In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on something I’ve never really said out loud: for a long time, I felt like a complete imposter teaching anything related to social media. I didn’t have a huge following. I wasn’t “aesthetically perfect.” I didn’t look like the typical content coach. And yet… my clients were getting results.  Big results.  Sales. Confidence. Clarity. Freedom. This episode walks you through the exact moment I realized my approach to visibility wasn’t actually about social media, it was about sales psychology, emotional connection, and helping doulas feel safe enough to take up space online. We talk about letting go of comparison, tapping into your natural gifts, turning your story into your strategy, and why standing out online isn’t about trends… it’s about truth. If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “qualified enough” to teach, lead, show up online, or sell your offers, this one will matter. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of why your voice is your most powerful sales tool and how embracing your uniqueness is the key to signing more clients.
