There was a season in my doula business where I was stuck making about $2K a month … while working constantly. Late nights.  Weekend consults.  Posting on Instagram.  Networking in Facebook groups.  Tweaking my website.  Lowering my prices. I was doing everything the industry said to do—and nothing was changing. In this episode, I’m sharing the moment I realized I had completely misdiagnosed the p...

In this episode, I’m flipping something most doulas were taught completely on its head. More packages do NOT equal more sales. More customization does NOT equal better service. And line-iteming your support might be the exact reason your consults end with “We’ll think about it.” If you’re walking into consults with three tiers, add-ons, and flexible pricing, you might be handing your clients the c...

In this episode, we’re unpacking the real psychology behind premium pricing for doulas and why pricing that actually reflects your worth isn’t greedy, unethical, or out of alignment… it’s leadership. We talk about the invisible costs no one teaches you to factor in : The emotional labor. The mental load. The constant availability. The opportunity cost of saying yes to one client and no to everythi...

Your doula consults feel good. They’re emotional. Connected. Even meaningful. And then… nothing happens. If you’re getting ghosted after long, heartfelt consults, I want you to hear this clearly: it’s not your likability, your warmth, or your ability to connect. It’s your structure.
