I am curious about becoming a doula myself :) I have looked into it once, and that’s the extent of it. I’d love to hear how it went from your side of things! Feel free to email me anytime! I’d love it!
Welcome Crista! Thanks for visiting my space. My journey with birth work has been a wonderful thing. I love it! But it is challenging with a growing family. I blog about it occasionally but kinda keep that part of life more sacred, or have learned to over the years. I hope you’ll find yourself back here and maybe a birthy post or two will catch your eye. Poz vibez to you!
