Have you been thinking about incorporating your culture into your doula work?!

If you're looking for the best ways to share your heritage and impact women through birth, then get out a pen and paper; this episode is for you!

Today I'm joined by Hosanna Knight from Leche de Oro, who is sharing her insight and experience from incorporating her Hispanic heritage into her work as a doula.  

Hosanna is a Latina birth and postpartum doula serving women in an hour radium of Woodstock, GA.

Aditional thoughts from Hosanna >> "
If you want to include rebozo in your doula practice, connect with a Latina doula in your area and pay for her to train you. Do not use free resources by non-Latinas. If our cultural practices are being used, we should be the ones training you."
