Ever wondered what a postpartum doula actually does—and how they can make early motherhood easier?

In this episode, I sit down with Kristin Revere, founder of Gold Coast Doulas, co-author of Supported: Your Guide to Birth and Baby, and host of Ask the Doulas. Kristin shares what doulas do (beyond labor support), the difference between birth and postpartum doulas, and how they provide emotional, physical, and educational care for new moms.

We cover what to expect when hiring a doula, how to find one in your area, and even ways families can budget or use employer benefits to make postpartum support more accessible.

If you’re preparing for birth—or in the thick of postpartum life—this conversation will help you feel seen, supported, and better equipped for the journey ahead.
