Woman! Woman! I am not a birthing person! I am a woman! It is so offensive and disrespectful to all women and mothers! But great podcast it was very insightful!

Hi, I enjoyed the interview. I'm having trouble finding Kesha on social media and online. The links to the site doesn't work.

How do you interview a great Doula to make sure you have found the right one?

@LiveFertile 3 ай бұрын

Taking the time to consider your own criteria (might include their training, level of experience, philosophy, just how you feel in their presence/ vibe, reviews, etc.) seems like a good place to start. Ask yourself what you want and what you're looking for. I'm curious to hear what sort of questions you would ask any other service provider to determine if they're a good fit.
