What to Expect

Doula Guide Post is an intentional mini-retreat designed for doulas who are sensing a transition in their work and seeking thoughtful guidance for what comes next. This space offers an opportunity to pause, reflect, and explore how your doula practice may evolve beyond its current form.

Open to doulas from any training background and all types of doula work, Doula Guide Post honors the many shapes this work can take—birth, postpartum, loss, abortion, full-spectrum, community-based, or otherwise. Participants are encouraged to stretch beyond the boundaries of their original training and engage in shared learning rooted in lived experience.

Through collective teaching and dialogue with doulas who have navigated multiple paths within this field, Doula Guide Post supports deeper clarity, sustainable growth, and expanded ways of offering care, while remaining grounded in the values that brought you to doula work in the first place.

❋ Intentional Structure

We start with some exercised to ground our time and offer ongoing guidance for questions that can’t be answered in our time together.

❋ Collaborative Energy

Connection is a core part of the process. You’ll learn just as much from the group as from the content itself.

❋ Expert Facilitation

Led by experienced doula who knows how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

❋ A Supportive Space

Doula Guide Post prioritizes comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.
