“But I’m not into that…” (and other myths)


Hi Reader,

I hear this a lot when I talk about Doula Magic:

“I’m not into birth and babies. So being a doula isn’t for me.”

Nope. Not anymore.

The truth is: you don’t need to be interested in anything regarding reproduction to be a doula. The doula role is applicable to anyone, going through any life challenge, at any age, in any field.

The bigger truth is: doulas are most effective at creating more humane, compassionate, and transformative experiences during life’s hardest moments.

Come to Doula Magic to find out why (and how.)

Doula Magic is designed for people who:

  • Aren’t sure where they fit in the “healing/helping” space
  • Feel burned out from trying to do too much, or “fix” everything
  • Want to learn how to show up without overstepping or absorbing it all

Doula Magic is about learning how to bring more meaning, skill, and presence into your service—whether you’re supporting friends, clients, patients, or your own family.

You’ll leave with insights you can apply:

  • In your coaching or healing business
  • At a bedside, in a courtroom, or with a friend navigating loss
  • In your community, your family, your team

Doulas are a bridge—between systems and people, between overwhelm and calm, between disempowerment and agency.

And learning their tools is a powerful way to amplify the work you already do.

Join me live on Tuesday, June 25, from 10am-1pm PDT and find out why this work matters so much—right now, especially.

For all the folks who need your support,


Carrie

Hi Reader, Three months ago, I started a job. The j.o.b. kind, where you clock in, report to someone, and have coworkers. I haven’t done this in over 25 years. It’s a trip. The logistical adjustments have been pretty easy. I don’t go in until the afternoon, so I have mornings wide open. I actually enjoy the routine of working on my business in the morning, then getting dressed, eating lunch before I leave, packing my dinner, driving on autopilot to the same destination, and parking in the...

Hi Reader, I tolerate AI. ✋On one hand, I’m appalled that AI companies have stolen authors’ content and violated copyright laws with impunity. And I HATE AI Google results. AI is notorious for pulling inaccurate information, so why do AI results get top spot??? (Plus, it’s ruining any chance of SEO results for small businesses.) 🤚On the other hand, those small businesses can set up AI to function as a virtual assistant, chat desk, analyst, and more, without jacking up overhead costs. Heck,...
