The Six-Figure Doula: For career birth workers building sustainable, high-income businesses

For the doula or perinatal pro who knows this work changes lives and deserves to pay well. For the woman who’s done undercharging, overgiving, and second-guessing herself. For the one who’s ready to build a sustainable, profitable business without selling her soul or burning herself out. On The Six Figure Doula Podcast, we talk about the conversations most doulas avoid: Money, pricing, and premium offers Sales without pressure, manipulation, or bro-marketing Building visibility & magnetic marketing that actually attracts aligned clients Leadership, identity, and the mindset shifts required to grow Simplifying your business instead of piling on more noise This isn’t a podcast about doing more. It’s about doing less- better. You won’t find hustle culture here. You won’t find watered-down social media advice or “try this trend” strategies.

This podcast is for you if: You want premium clients who respect your work You’re ready to sell with integrity and certainty You’re done explaining or justifying your prices You want freedom, not chaos disguised as “passion” You’re all-in on building something that lasts If you’re looking for comfort, this isn’t it.

Have you ever looked back at a decision you made inside of your business and thought...

"What was I thinking?"

A few days ago, I shared a Reel about the "unhinged" things I did during the first year of my doula business, and the response was incredible. 

But what most people saw as impulsive or risky, I now see as the decisions that completely changed the trajectory of my life.

But this episode isn't really about those dec...

What if the thing standing between you and the doula business you want... isn't time...it's the story you're telling yourself?

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on one of the biggest mindset shifts I've made as both a mother and a business owner.

We're talking about the guilt, the expectations, the pressure to "do it all," and why so many ambitious doulas unknowingly build businesses that compete with the life they're act...

I'm not changing who I am...but I'm finally getting crystal clear about who I'm here to serve.

For a long time, I tried to create content for every doula. The brand-new doula. The side-hustle doula. The doula hoping referrals would eventually be enough.

But I've realized that's not who I come alive coaching.

In this episode, I'm sharing why I've narrowed my niche, the role money really plays in birth work, why I believe ambition and m...

In this episode, I'm sharing a deeply personal story about how my dad taught me the principles of investing from a young age, helping me build an investment portfolio long before I ever became an entrepreneur. 

Those lessons didn't just shape how I think about m...

What if the reason mothers aren't hiring you has nothing to do with your pricing, your package, or your experience?

For years, I believed that if a mother trusted me, she'd hire me.

But after listening to hundreds of doula consultations and coaching doulas all over the world, I realized something surprising:

The problem wasn't trust. The problem was clarity.

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.”
