Customer Reviews
I LOVE this podcast!
Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful, compassionate discussions! I owe so much to this podcast! I'm to take my first training in 2 weeks and am in a totally different place than I would be without listening to most of your episodes in the past month. I can't thank you enough!
Great podcast! Where is episode 18?
Only episode 25 and up are visible to me. Are the first 24 available somewhere?
Inspirational!
Before this podcast I wasn’t very sure of what a doula did, but now I am inspired as I realize that this is what I have been dreaming of doing all this time! I love the earlier podcasts where you and Sarah would discuss issues Doula’s face and the business side of it, and I also love the stories. This podcast has inspired me to look at different certification programs to become certified!
