Mini episode for the recent doula grads by request from @bewithbirth: “a doula pep talk for us students to listen to on our way to a birth. Little reminders to stay true to who we are and what we we've learned!” She sent me her top seven reminders and I threw in a couple bonus ones. I’m not generally taking requests so try not to send me more 😂. Support my work at links in my Instagram bio @jessicaaustinchildbirth

We talked last episode about how I was born, and here’s an intro to confronting the idea of my death. Part one of a conversation on how looking death in the face helps me navigate life more powerfully while I’m still here and extremely committed to staying to mother my child for as long as possible.
