| 115. Doula Packages That Sell Themselves (on repeat) *BONUS EPISODE* | 19 Sep 2026 | 00:26:36 | |
🎟️ Register FREE for The Six Figure Doula Booking Engine through the link in the show notes and be in the room LIVE Tuesday, September 22 at 2 PM ET. Because if your current business model looks like: Find client → serve client → finish → replace client → repeat forever… we need to talk. Especially if you’re an established doula who already has the experience, testimonials, referrals, reputation and skills- but your income still feels way too dependent on constantly finding the next pregnant woman. In this episode of The Six Figure Doula Podcast, I’m challenging some of the most common advice doulas have been given about packages, pricing, and how we structure our businesses. We’re talking about the difference between simply having a bunch of services someone can buy…and intentionally building a business where your offers actually work together. I’m also sharing a client example that completely changes the way I want you thinking about childbirth education, your signature support, and what can happen when you stop treating every offer like its own little island. Because you’re not a beginner anymore. Your business shouldn’t still feel like it starts over at $0 every damn month. And if you know you're ready for that next level income- I REALLY want you with me LIVE Tuesday, September 22 at 2 PM ET for my completely FREE masterclass: ***BUILD YOUR SIX FIGURE DOULA BOOKING ENGINE*** This episode is one piece of the conversation. Tuesday, I’m showing you the whole freakin' engine. How the right women find you. How your messaging creates demand. How you turn visibility into actual conversations. How you pre-sell before the consultation. How you lead the sales conversation. How you handle hesitation and objections. How you follow up. And how you create your OWN rooms and opportunities so your business isn't entirely dependent on Instagram behaving or someone remembering to refer you this month. This is for the established, boots-on-the-ground doula who is already damn good at supporting families- and is ready to build a business capable of creating predictable clients, repeatable revenue, and more money without automatically adding more births, nights, weekends and physical hours. And as I’m recording this? There are only 7 spots remaining. If you've been thinking about joining me, this is your sign to stop thinking about it. You’ve already built the skills to become a damn good doula. Now let’s make the business as good as you are. I’m teaching a FREE live class called The Six Figure Doula Booking Engine. I’m breaking down how to create more consistent inquiries, how to turn those into consults, and how to lead those consults in a way that actually gets clients to say YES. *When you register, you’ll also get: free access to the Sales Sisterhood! Love being a doula..but tired of unpredictable income? If growing your business still means taking more births, working more overnights, or hoping the next referral comes through, there’s a better way. Imagine consistent private-pay clients, predictable $10K months, and a business that builds wealth for your family without requiring more and more of you. | |||
| 114. A $10K Doula Month Means Nothing If You Can’t Repeat It | 15 Sep 2026 | 00:32:46 | |
I want you with me LIVE on September 22 at 2 PM ET for my FREE masterclass: THE SIX FIGURE DOULA BOOKING ENGINE You want to hit a $10K month in your doula business. Or maybe you’ve gotten close enough to know you’re capable of it. But then the calendar turns over…and you’re right back to wondering: Where the f*ck are my next clients coming from? That’s the problem we’re talking about in this episode. Because the goal isn’t one great month. It’s understanding your business well enough to know why it happened, and how to intentionally create it again. I’m taking you back to the season when I was bringing in around $2K/month, working constantly, obsessing over Instagram, tweaking my website, downloading freebies, learning funnels and convincing myself I just needed MORE visibility. I didn’t. I was working my butt off trying to fix the wrong problem. And I see established doulas doing the exact same thing today. In this episode, we’re talking about why more content doesn’t automatically mean more clients, how to identify where women are actually getting stuck on their way to hiring you, why referrals alone will never give you true predictability, and the difference between creating content and creating clients. Because you don’t need 97 more marketing ideas. You need to understand your engine. And if this episode hits a nerve, I want you with me LIVE on September 22 at 2 PM ET for my FREE masterclass: THE SIX FIGURE DOULA BOOKING ENGINE I’m teaching you how to turn inconsistent inquiries into a predictable pipeline of private-pay clients by understanding the entire path: Create demand → Start conversations → Pre-sell before the call → Lead better consultations → Handle objections + follow up → Create your own rooms. This is for the established, boots-on-the-ground doula who is already damn good at the work—but is DONE crossing her fingers every month hoping referrals, Instagram or word-of-mouth keep the calendar full. You don’t just want another $10K month. You want to know how to do it again. And when you register, you’ll also get exclusive access to my paid Six Figure Doula Sisterhood leading up to the masterclass- something I’ve never offered alongside a free training like this before. 🎟️ Register FREE for The Six Figure Doula Booking Engine and join me LIVE September 22 at 2 PM ET. Let’s stop hoping next month fills itself. Let’s build the engine. I’m teaching a FREE live class called The Six Figure Doula Booking Engine. I’m breaking down how to create more consistent inquiries, how to turn those into consults, and how to lead those consults in a way that actually gets clients to say YES. *When you register, you’ll also get: free access to the Sales Sisterhood!

| 113. 5 Juicy Things Your Instagram Bio Needs to Turn Followers Into Inquiries | 08 Sep 2026 | 00:22:56 | |
Your Instagram bio has 150 characters to make the right mother think: Oh shit. She’s for me. And most doulas are wasting them. Not because their bios are “bad.” They’re professional. They list the certifications, the services, the location, maybe throw in a cute emoji and point to the link below. But they could belong to literally 100 other doulas. In this episode, I’m breaking down what actually makes an Instagram bio stop the right woman, build trust quickly, and move her toward becoming a client—without sounding like a robotic marketing formula or trying to cram your entire résumé into 150 characters. I’m also taking you behind the scenes of an exercise we recently did inside Six Figure Doula that reminded me why the first draft is almost NEVER the answer—and why the room you’re building your business inside matters more than you might realize. Because this next chapter of Six Figure Doula has a theme: Together. And if your Instagram profile is getting visitors but not creating enough inquiries, conversations, or clients, start here. Then join me LIVE on September 22 for my free Six Figure Doula Booking Engine masterclass, where we’re going much deeper into building a predictable client-generating system instead of sitting around hoping referrals come through. And when you register, you’re getting a bonus I’ve never offered alongside a free masterclass before. Love being a doula..but tired of unpredictable income? If growing your business still means taking more births, working more overnights, or hoping the next referral comes through, there’s a better way.

| 112. I’m Pregnant. And I Refuse to Disappear. | 02 Sep 2026 | 00:25:15 | |
I’m pregnant. And after five pregnancies, loss, fear, hope, and a hell of a lot of uncertainty… saying those words out loud still feels surreal. But this episode isn’t just a pregnancy announcement. Because something has happened since finding out this baby is coming that I didn’t expect.. In this episode, I’m taking you inside one of the most vulnerable seasons of my life- and officially opening the door to a new chapter I’m calling Building Both. For the next six-plus months, I’m bringing you behind the scenes while I build a baby AND the next evolution of Six Figure Doula. I don’t know exactly what this is all going to look like on the other side. And for once, I don’t want to wait until I do to let you in. And if you’re building something bigger too, I want you with me on September 22. I’m hosting a brand-new, completely FREE, LIVE masterclass for doulas who are ready to get fucking good at the handful of skills that actually create clients- and stop relying on inconsistent referrals to determine their income. Seats are limited!! And when you register, you’re also getting access to a juicy bonus I have never, ever offered before (seriously, it's so damn good!) I’m keeping that part a little mysterious for now (until you register). Grab your free seat HERE before they’re gone. We’re building both. I’m teaching a FREE live class called The Six Figure Doula Booking Engine. I’m breaking down how to create more consistent inquiries, how to turn those into consults, and how to lead those consults in a way that actually gets clients to say YES. *When you register, you’ll also get: free access to the Sales Sisterhood!

| 111. Your Doula Consult Went Great... Until It Didn't | 25 Aug 2026 | 00:29:12 | |
She loved your energy. She opened up about her birth. You connected instantly. The conversation felt easy. You hung up thinking, there's no way she's not booking. Then comes: "I need to think about it." "I need to talk to my husband." Or worse... silence. And your first instinct might be to blame your price or the other doula she's interviewing. But what if you're losing the sale somewhere completely different? In this episode, I'm breaking down five mistakes I've repeatedly spotted while auditing real doula consultations- and most of them look like things you're supposed to be doing. Building rapport. Educating. Explaining your value. Giving her options. Giving her space to decide. You know that connection is one of your greatest strengths.. But connection without leadership creates hesitation. And hesitation doesn't convert. We're getting into the tiny moments that can completely change the outcome of a consultation, what happens after you say your price, why giving a mother more options can actually make the decision harder, and the place I see doulas unknowingly abandon the sale altogether. And if your immediate thought is, "But Lisa, I just need more inquiries..." Listen to this episode before you spend another minute trying to create them. Because more leads won't fix a conversion problem. And you may be much closer to consistent $10K months than you think. I’m teaching a FREE live class called The Six Figure Doula Booking Engine. I’m breaking down how to create more consistent inquiries, how to turn those into consults, and how to lead those consults in a way that actually gets clients to say YES. *When you register, you’ll also get: free access to the Sales Sisterhood!

| 110. My Client Asked for a Refund...and Doula.. It Devastated Me | 18 Aug 2026 | 00:26:22 | |
My coaching client asked me for a refund. And it devastated me. At the time, I thought it meant I needed to become a better coach. Give more. Work harder to make sure no client could ever leave my world disappointed again. Years later, I realize I learned the wrong lesson. Because there’s a massive difference between someone who wants the transformation and someone who is willing to participate in creating it. In this episode, I’m getting vulnerable about that first refund, what unexpectedly brought that experience back to the surface, and the realization that’s changing who I want to coach and how I want to build this next chapter of my business. I'm getting honest about why I’m becoming far less interested in reaching more doulas and far more interested in going deeper with the right ones. I’m also sharing why I’m simplifying everything and why I believe established birth, postpartum, death doulas, and other in-person perinatal professionals need a path to greater income that doesn’t automatically require more births, more overnights, more clients, and more of their physical time. Because I don't want to help doulas escape the work they love. I want to help them build businesses that make it possible to stay in this work for the long haul. >>>>This episode is going to feel very, very personal.

| 109. The Boundaries That Saved Her Doula Career with Evan Cohen of Big Cat Birth | 04 Aug 2026 | 00:38:46 | |
What if the thing that's making doula work feel unsustainable... isn't the births? What if it's the pressure to be everything for everyone? In this deeply honest conversation with veteran birth doula and mentor Evan from Big Cat Birth, we unpack the side of birth work that isn't talked about nearly enough: people-pleasing, burnout, boundaries, identity, and the uncomfortable truth that taking better care of yourself often makes you a better doula-not a less dedicated one. If you've ever questioned whether you can keep doing this work, felt guilty setting boundaries, or wondered if you're the only one struggling to find balance between serving families and protecting your own life, this episode will remind you that you're not alone. This isn't another conversation about "self-care." It's about building a doula career you actually want to keep. Because the birth world doesn't just need more doulas. It needs doulas who are still here ten years from now. Love being a doula..but tired of unpredictable income? If growing your business still means taking more births, working more overnights, or hoping the next referral comes through, there’s a better way.

| 108. Why I Told My Client to Raise Her Doula Rates by $1,000 (She Still Booked) | 28 Jul 2026 | 00:36:08 | |
This week I share the story of one of my clients who charged $1,000 more to one sister than she charged the other... just six months apart. Same doula. Same service. Different price. And both women happily said yes. So what changed? It wasn't another certification. It wasn't dozens of additional births. It wasn't luck. It was the business behind the price. If you've ever wondered:
...this episode is going to challenge everything you've been taught about doula pricing. Because premium pricing isn't something you decide. It's something you build. And by the end of this episode, you'll understand exactly why the number on your pricing guide is one of the last things a six-figure doula changes, not the first. I’m teaching a FREE live class called The Six Figure Doula Booking Engine. I’m breaking down how to create more consistent inquiries, how to turn those into consults, and how to lead those consults in a way that actually gets clients to say YES. *When you register, you’ll also get: free access to the Sales Sisterhood!

| 107. My Step By Step Formula For Doulas Who Want To Build A Personal Brand | 20 Jul 2026 | 00:17:02 | |
>>>Join Me LIVE Tomorrow<<< If you constantly second-guess what to post... If you're worried about what other doulas will think... Or if your content is sucking all of your time and somehow still isn't attracting the clients you want... Buckle up. In this episode, I'm sharing why your personal brand started long before you became a doula and why becoming memorable has far more to do with who you are than what you post. I'll walk you through the exact framework I use to uncover your "anchor message," so you never have to wonder what to post again. In This Episode, We Cover:

| 106. My Doula Business Feels Stuck, Is It My Strategy Or Something Else? | 14 Jul 2026 | 00:16:43 | |
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 this episode isn't really about those decisions. It's about what they required of me. Because I've realized the biggest thing holding most doulas back isn't strategy...it's waiting until they feel confident enough to act. If you're stuck waiting for more experience, more certainty, or the "perfect time," this conversation is for you.

| 105. How to Stop Letting Summer Slow Down Your Doula Business | 07 Jul 2026 | 00:14:31 | |
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 actually trying to create. I share the practical changes I've made to protect my time, create more presence with my son, and build a business that supports my family instead of stealing me away from it. If you've ever felt torn between being the mother you want to be and the entrepreneur you know you're capable of becoming, this conversation is for you.

| 104. This Podcast Isn’t For Every Doula Anymore, Sorry | 30 Jun 2026 | 00:13:02 | |
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 motherhood belong together, and why this podcast isn't for every doula anymore. If you've ever felt guilty for wanting more than "coffee money" from your business, or you've been told you're "too ambitious" for doula work, this conversation is for you.

| 103. How One Lesson From My Dad Shaped My Entire Life (and Doula Business) | 23 Jun 2026 | 00:15:46 | |
What if the biggest thing standing between you and your next level isn't a lack of talent, strategy, or opportunity... But your willingness to invest in yourself? 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. Over the last year alone, I've invested tens of thousands of dollars into coaching, mentorship, masterminds, conferences, and personal development. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why. We'll talk about: ✨ The difference between spending money and making investments ✨ Borrowed belief and why proximity matters ✨ Accountability, hyper-focus, and faster decision-making ✨ The logical business reasons to invest, including ROI and tax advantages ✨ Why investing in yourself isn't just a business decision- it's a legacy decision If you've been sitting on the fence about your next investment, this episode may completely change the way you think about growth. Because the most expensive decision isn't always investing. Sometimes it's staying exactly where you are.

Because visibility might open the door. But leadership is what changes lives. What if the thing holding your doula business back isn't your content... it's your ability to lead? In this final episode of the From Invisible to Unforgettable series, I'm sharing the biggest realization I've had after coaching hundreds of doulas: The problem usually isn't visibility. It's what happens after someone finds you. Because getting seen is one thing. Helping someone move from uncertainty to decision is another. We're recapping the biggest lessons from this series—from standing out in a crowded market, to embracing what makes you different, to becoming known for something specific, to leading more powerful consultations. And we're talking about the one thing that ties it all together: Sales. Not the pushy version. The leadership version. The kind that helps people find clarity, make decisions, and move forward. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ Why visibility alone won't book you out ✨ Why sales skills are actually life skills ✨ The real reason so many doulas stay stuck ✨ How leadership impacts every area of your business ✨ Why helping people make decisions is one of the greatest gifts you can give them Love being a doula..but tired of unpredictable income?

| 101. From Invisible to Unforgettable: Why Pregnant and Postpartum Mothers Still Don't Hire You As Their Doula {Part 4} | 09 Jun 2026 | 00:13:44 | |
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, you'll learn ✨ The difference between gathering information and creating transformation ✨ The consultation mistake that keeps doulas hearing "I need to think about it" ✨ How to help women move from uncertainty to clarity ✨ The hidden cost of long, rapport-heavy consultations ✨ What the best coaches, mentors, and therapists do differently If you've ever left a consultation feeling frustrated...

| 99. From Invisible to Unforgettable: The Branding Mistake Making Your Doula Business Forgettable {Part 2} | 26 May 2026 | 00:10:27 | |
In this episode, I’m getting painfully honest about something I think so many women silently experience… what happens when you slowly start abandoning yourself in order to be easier to love. I’m sharing the deeper story behind why I care so much about visibility, branding, self-expression, and helping doulas stop watering themselves down online — because this work has never really just been about Instagram bios or marketing strategy for me. It’s about identity. It’s about the years I spent believing I was too much: And how slowly — through relationships, conditioning, fear of judgment, and fear of rejection — I started shrinking myself without even realizing it. In this conversation, I open up about: If you’ve ever felt like you need to tone yourself down to be accepted… this episode is for you. And if you want support making your brand feel more human, emotionally connective, and memorable… I do offer personalized Doula IG Bio Audits where I review your bio, messaging, positioning, and first impression so your page actually sounds like YOU. Snag one here or DM me the word AUDIT on Instagram. Love being a doula..but tired of unpredictable income?

| 98. From Invisible to Unforgettable: 5 Birth Branding Lessons Every Doula Needs to Hear {Part 1} | 19 May 2026 | 00:16:06 | |
This episode kicks off a brand-new series on the Six Figure Doula Podcast all about visibility, personal branding, emotional connection, and what actually makes doulas unforgettable online. I’m talking about:
This episode is vulnerable, bold, and probably a little uncomfortable at times… but it’s the conversation I think the birth world desperately needs. Because your future clients cannot choose the version of you they cannot clearly see. And they definitely cannot remember the version of you that sounds like everybody else.
Spots are limited because I personally do these myself, so grab yours before they’re gone. Love being a doula..but tired of unpredictable income? If growing your business still means taking more births, working more overnights, or hoping the next referral comes through, there’s a better way. Imagine consistent private-pay clients, predictable $10K months, and a business that builds wealth for your family without requiring more and more of you. | |||

🔥 Break Your Doula $10K Ceiling in 30 Days Without More Content or Referrals 🗓 May 12th Register for free here I see so many doulas spending SO much money trying to grow your business… and almost none of it is actually increasing your income. And trust me- I get it, because I did the exact same thing. There was a season in my business where I was stuck around $2K months while working nonstop behind the scenes:

| 95. Overcoming The Imposter Syndrome Showing Up In Your Doula Business | 28 Apr 2026 | 00:17:20 | |
Imposter syndrome doesn’t disappear as you grow your doula business- it evolves. In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my own experience with imposter syndrome, especially after making a bold shift in my business on January 15th. From the outside, it looked confident and intentional… but internally? I’ve been questioning my own results, my proof, and whether I can keep this momentum going, every single month since. I’m also sharing the story of my very first job as a personal trainer, when I wasn’t even certified, and how that experience shaped everything I now believe about confidence, sales, and what it actually takes to book clients. If you’re a doula or service provider struggling with self-doubt, feeling like a fraud, or holding yourself back from showing up and selling your services, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on, and how to move through it.

| 93. Doula Journal Entry: When Everything Is Working… Except the One Thing I Want Most | 14 Apr 2026 | 00:26:21 | |
Before you listen, please know this conversation includes pregnancy loss, miscarriage, and the emotional realities that come with it. If you’re in a tender place, protect your heart first. You can come back to this when you’re ready. I’ve been a bit quiet for a reason. Not because I didn’t have anything to say…but because I was in the middle of something I couldn’t rush to make sense of. In the last year, I’ve experienced two missed miscarriages. The first came with waiting...waiting for answers, waiting for my body to catch up, waiting in this space between fear and trust while making decisions I never thought I’d have to face. The second… was different. I knew. Before the ultrasound. Before anyone said a word. This episode is about that knowing. The grief. The jealousy, guilt, and thoughts I didn’t want to admit out loud. The experience of moving through a system that felt cold and disconnected from something so deeply human. And the identity shift that comes when you can’t “fix” or control the one thing you want most. This isn’t a lesson. There’s no neat takeaway. This is me… in it. Processing what it means to hold both abundance and devastation at the same time. To build a life and business that’s expanding, while navigating something that feels completely out of your hands. To trust your body again… and to become someone who can hold more, even when it hurts. If you’ve experienced loss… And you don’t have to rush your way out of it. Thank you for being here. <3 Love being a doula..but tired of unpredictable income?

| 91. From Loss to Leadership: The Story Behind the Doula Collective with Amy Silva | 31 Mar 2026 | 00:55:07 | |
This conversation is going to stay with you. Because this isn’t just about doula work… This is about what it means to be a human holding other humans through the most life-altering moments they’ll ever experience. Today, I’m sitting down with Amy Silva, founder of the Collaborative Doula Collective and the Collaborative Doula Conference, and we go far beyond surface-level conversations about birth work. We go into the why behind it all. The kind of why that’s born from lived experience. From her grief. From her love. From life cracking her open and asking her to become someone new. Amy shares the deeply personal season that shaped everything she’s building today. A story about grief and new life. Side by side- and what that taught her about what doulas are really holding space for. We talk about: – What doulas carry that no one talks about – The emotional weight of supporting others while living your own story – Why this work is bigger than business… and requires community to sustain it – And how to hold space without losing yourself in the process It’s the kind of conversation that reminds you: You don’t get to separate the work from the woman. And maybe… you’re not meant to. If you’ve ever felt the weight of this work… If you’ve ever craved a space where you can be supported too, This is for you. ***And if you’re feeling the pull to be in a room where these conversations are happening in real life: The Collaborative Doula Conference is happening May 25–27 (and I'll be speaking and craving hugs IRL!!)

| 90. How to Keep Going When Your Doula Business Isn’t Working (And You’re Ready to Quit) | 24 Mar 2026 | 00:12:03 | |
What do you do when your business isn’t working… and you’re this close to giving up? In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my own entrepreneurial journey, back to the season where nothing was clicking. No consistent clients. No predictable income. No proof that any of this was going to work. Just doubt, pressure, and the constant question: “Is this even meant for me?” Because here’s the truth no one talks about: The hardest part of building a business isn’t strategy. But what’s even more surprising? That’s not the only hard season. Because eventually… it does start working. And then the question shifts from: “How do I keep going when nothing is working?” In this episode, we’re diving into both. I’m sharing:
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but nothing is working… This episode will hit. Because you don’t just need to keep going. You need to build this in a way that actually holds.

| 89. Why Your Doula Consult Felt So Good… But She Still Didn’t Sign | 18 Mar 2026 | 00:17:26 | |
The Moment You Think You Lost the Client Booking (But Didn’t) This episode breaks down the exact moment most doulas lose their power—right after they say the price. This isn’t about scripts.

| 88. Why Your Doula Business Is Stuck Under 10K Months | 10 Mar 2026 | 00:19:06 | |
There was a season in my doula business where I was stuck making about $2K a month… while working constantly. Late nights. I was doing everything the industry said to do—and nothing was changing. In this episode, I’m sharing the moment I realized I had completely misdiagnosed the problem in my business. Because most doulas don’t actually have a lead problem. They have a bottleneck problem. Once I figured out where my business was truly stuck, everything shifted—and I went from $2K months to consistent $10K+ months as an in-person doula. If you feel like you’re working incredibly hard but your income isn’t reflecting it, this episode will help you identify what’s really going on.

| 87. Doula Packages That Sell Themselves | 03 Mar 2026 | 00:16:15 | |
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.” If you’re walking into consults with three tiers, add-ons, and flexible pricing, you might be handing your clients the clipboard — when what they actually want is certainty. Inside this episode, I break down:

Or maybe you're a certified vet… but your calendar is bare and signing 3 clients right now feels like a dream. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how to book your first (or next) three doula clients- without ads, without going viral, and without 10 years of experience. You’ll learn: • Why your first 3 clients are about identity, not income • The Rule of 5 Ones framework to simplify your marketing • How to sell when you have zero testimonials • What to say when someone asks about your experience • Why confidence transfers, and how to embody it before you fully feel it • How to build momentum through conversations (not content overload) If you're struggling with imposter syndrome as a new doula or inconsistent bookings, this episode will give you a clear, actionable plan.

| 85. Rethinking Social Media as a Doula (And Why Most Advice Fails You) | 17 Feb 2026 | 00:19:06 | |
If you’re wondering how to stand out as a doula without posting more, chasing trends, or burning out on Instagram, this episode breaks it down. I’m sharing the truth about my own content creation journey: the batching, the accountability pods, the 5–10 hours a week spent on reels...and why none of it directly grew my doula business. This conversation will help you rethink doula visibility and shift away from outdated social media advice that keeps birth workers stuck. Inside, I cover:

| 84. Saying Goodbye to My Fancy Funnel: A Conversation About Doula Self-Trust and Leadership | 03 Feb 2026 | 00:19:11 | |
This is me officially saying goodbye to my fancy freakin’ funnel. Not because funnels don’t work, but because this one never really fit. In this episode, I share how I actually built a six-figure, in-person doula business long before launches, ads, or automation, and why letting go of systems that looked good on paper but felt heavy in my body changed everything.

| 83. What Doula Training Leaves Out (and Families Pay For) with Krystil Hofsky | 27 Jan 2026 | 00:41:56 | |
What happens when your own birth cracks you wide open...and you can’t unsee the system ever again? In this episode, I’m sitting down with Krystil Hofsky, founder of Innerbloom Doula Institute, to talk about the moments that fundamentally changed how she trusted herself, how she mothered, and how she understood power inside birth spaces. Krystil shares how her son’s birth rerouted her entire life, pulling her out of corporate sales and into a deeper reckoning with autonomy, consent, responsibility, and what advocacy actually demands of doulas. We go there: the uncomfortable truths about modern birth, the gaps in traditional doula training, and why being “well-intentioned” is no longer enough. We talk about:
This conversation is honest, confronting, and deeply validating for anyone who’s felt the quiet tension between what they were taught and what they know in their body.

| 82. How to Price Your Doula Services Without Guilt or Burnout | 20 Jan 2026 | 00:10:58 | |
In this episode, we’re unpacking the real psychology behind premium pricing for doulas and why pricing that actually reflects your worth isn’t greedy, unethical, or out of alignment… it’s leadership. We talk about the invisible costs no one teaches you to factor in: We’ll name the real problem with undercharging, not just financially, but energetically, and how low prices don’t create safety, trust, or access… they create resentment, burnout, and shaky boundaries. This conversation goes deeper than numbers. If you’ve ever said:

| 81. The Real Reason Your Doula Consults Go Nowhere | 13 Jan 2026 | 00:15:36 | |
Your doula consults feel good. They’re emotional. Connected. Even meaningful. And then… nothing happens. If you’re getting ghosted after long, heartfelt consults, I want you to hear this clearly: it’s not your likability, your warmth, or your ability to connect. It’s your structure. In this episode, I share a moment that genuinely humbled me- despite selling nearly $5 million in my career, I found myself struggling on sales calls. When I brought it to my coach, I expected a small tweak. Instead, he challenged the foundation and reminded me of something every successful business owner eventually learns: Sales calls are always the biggest needle mover. You’ll learn:

| 80. What It Really Takes to Build a Six-Figure Doula Business (No Sugarcoating) | 06 Jan 2026 | 00:15:18 | |
I recorded this episode to talk honestly about what building a six-figure doula business actually requires- beyond certifications, long hours, or trying to be everything to everyone. I share what shifted my own doula business and what I see consistently in doulas who build profitable, sustainable doula businesses: leadership in conversations, visibility that does the heavy lifting, and learning how to sell your services without feeling pushy or fake. This episode is a grounded look at why so many doulas feel stuck doing meaningful work without consistent income, and what changes when you lead differently. 👉 DM me AUDIT on Instagram @thelisavee if you want support getting clearer, more visible, and more booked.

| 79. Year-End Reflections: The Scary Business Changes Shaping My Doula Growth | 30 Dec 2025 | 00:15:21 | |
In this year-end reflection, I’m sharing the doula-truths I didn’t want to admit, but couldn’t ignore anymore. This episode is about slowing down, exercising restraint, and making changes that feel uncomfortable but necessary to grow a sustainable doula business. I talk candidly about hiding in momentum, receiving hard feedback from my coach, and realizing that doing more was actually diluting my impact. You’ll hear why I’m creating less content, launching less, narrowing my focus, offering deeper private support sooner than planned, and choosing rooms, and mentors, where expansion is normal. This isn’t a strategy episode. It’s a leadership one. A real one. If you’re feeling called to simplify, refine, and trust yourself at a deeper level in your business, this conversation will land.

| 76. The Real AF Doula Sales Script That Actually Converts: What to Say to Book More Clients | 09 Dec 2025 | 00:15:27 | |
Sales conversations feel vulnerable. It’s not your certifications or your follower count or the fact that you don’t have the “perfect” line to say. It’s that somewhere along the way, you started performing. Polishing yourself. And polished? In this episode, we’re throwing out the performative BS and getting back to what actually books clients: ✨ Your presence I’m breaking down: 🔥 Why most doulas THINK they need a script (and why it makes them sound staged) 🔥 Why scripts fall flat when they’re built around the words instead of the woman saying them 🔥 Why a REAL script, the right framework, can actually set you free 🔥 What to actually SAY to open someone up, connect deeply, and lead like the guide you already are This episode will crack you wide open in the best way.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on something I’ve never really said out loud: for a long time, I felt like a complete imposter teaching anything related to social media. I didn’t have a huge following. I wasn’t “aesthetically perfect.” I didn’t look like the typical content coach. And yet… my clients were getting results. This episode walks you through the exact moment I realized my approach to visibility wasn’t actually about social media, it was about sales psychology, emotional connection, and helping doulas feel safe enough to take up space online. We talk about letting go of comparison, tapping into your natural gifts, turning your story into your strategy, and why standing out online isn’t about trends… it’s about truth. If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “qualified enough” to teach, lead, show up online, or sell your offers, this one will matter. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of why your voice is your most powerful sales tool and how embracing your uniqueness is the key to signing more clients.

| 70. Unfiltered & Unapologetic: How Authenticity Built Her Birth Empire {Interview w/ Tranquility By HeHe & The Birth Lounge} | 28 Oct 2025 | 00:54:56 | |
If you’ve ever felt like you had to quiet your voice, shrink your personality, or follow the “rules” of birth work just to be taken seriously, this conversation with HeHe of Tranquility By Hehe, The Birth Lounge, is your permission slip to do the opposite. HeHe and I go deep on what it really means to build a career rooted in authenticity, not approval. From her early days navigating the birth world to creating a movement centered around autonomy, education, and alignment, HeHe’s story is a masterclass in staying true to your mission, even when it ruffles feathers. We also talk about the power of alignment in doula-client relationships: how to know when the fit is right (and when it’s not), why your energy matters more than your credentials, and how showing up as your real self attracts the clients you’re meant to serve. And of course, HeHe shares about her current pregnancy journey, how it’s deepened her perspective as both a birth worker and a soon-to-be mom, and what this next chapter is teaching her about trust, surrender, and self-leadership. This one’s heartfelt, unfiltered, and packed with wisdom for anyone building a life, business, or birth practice rooted in realness.
