What is mandatory for doulas


Hi Reader,

What is mandatory for doulas and necessary for everyone else?

Unfortunately, the word “self care” is so overused and misunderstood that most folks resist it.

In fact, as soon as you saw the word, you may have been tempted to close this email.

"I don’t have time for self care."
"I already do self care."
"Self care is only for the privileged."

We have been conditioned to believe those ideas but all they do is continue to keep us overwhelmed and depressed.

So here’s what I want you to do to really nurture yourself...

(If you took advantage of my friend Destiny's 3-Day Self-Care Workshop last week, you’ve already been introduced to her and her upcoming All Access Pass. If you’ve already signed up for her full array of self-care support, you can skip this email.)

Destiny just opened the doors to her All-Access Pass for 2025. She's offering ALL her self-care support in one place.

You get access to every one of her self-care courses, challenges, and workshops for the year—including:

  • The 14-Day Self-Care Series + Confidence Edition (this one alone is amazing)
  • Self-Care 101: Learn the fundamentals of self care + The Self Care Roadmap
  • Boundaries 101: Put yourself first without the guilt + The Boundaries Playbook
  • The full Self-Care Library (journals, affirmations, tools, and more)
  • Boundaries Bootcamp
  • The Self Care Studio (your pocket sized self care menu)
  • Plus everything she creates for the rest of 2025

And it’s just one flat price. Swap one dinner for two for the All-Access Pass and get a feast of self-care support.

If you’ve been wanting to take better care of yourself (but don’t know where to start), or have been trying but need more useful tools, this is perfect for you.

I’m seriously impressed by everything inside. So many options to find just the right support + tools to keep your self care going.

Here’s to you..and us! Let’s truly take care of ourselves this year. Goodness knows we need it!

Hi Reader, Are you… A. Exploring a career as a healing or helping professional? B. Thinking about being a doula? C. Trained as a doula but just getting started? D. A doula with a thriving practice? Most people who end up at D started at A. But most people who start at A think of more traditional helping and healing roles, such as being a therapist, nurse, body worker, doctor, or social worker, and never considering being a doula. What a missed opportunity! The fact is, many people don’t even...

Hi Reader, I used to wonder about those retirees who become Walmart greeters. Was their social security check not enough? Were they bored at home? Did they just want to be around other people? After all, it doesn’t seem so bad to get paid to simply wave to people, even if it’s about as prestigious as the job they started with as a teenager. Maybe it’s one of life’s “full circle” moments…like the one I’m going through right now. I told you all that I recently started a new job. I haven’t had a...
