Description

Readiness Is Not a Feeling

In this episode, we talk about readiness and why waiting to feel confident keeps so many doulas stuck.

Readiness is not a feeling. It is an action.

We break down why readiness is built through experience, not certainty, and why fear does not mean you are unprepared.

You'll hear why mentorship alone does not create confidence, how real growth happens through doing, and what readiness actually looks like in birth, postpartum, education, and lactation support.

If you have ever thought, "When I feel ready, I'll take the first step," this episode is for you.
