I’ve gotten 3 messages in the last week from women asking for a discount to my course. I haven’t had any prior relationship with them at all, and the request for a discount is their very first message to me. I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to offer discounts because I priced the course as fair as I could, and I believe it’s worth the cost. I’d like to just get them on consultations or something, but I feel like the relationship is already broken before it even begins. Advice?

Join me at the Collaborative Doula Conference this May in LONDON ONTARIO!!! This is a powerful event where caregivers from birth to end-of-life come together to connect, learn, and grow. This is more than a conference!! it’s a community built on shared experiences, open conversations, and a deep commitment to supporting families through every stage of life. Come be part of a more connected, collaborative, and inclusive future in care and hang with me and so many other birth workers and perinatal pros in person!

How do y’all feel about promoting other brands in the form of product recs or brand deals? Normally I veer away from this 😆 I did hello fresh about a year ago, which is a service I love, but it felt very icky. However I got an offer to make a few paid reels for the olive app, which is just a wonderful invention, and something my mamas could definitely use. My concern is that it would be slightly different from my usual content, and I would hate to appear inauthentic. I also feel weird about running an app-based business while also promoting someone else’s app 🫠 Do y’all have any words of wisdom? I’m not sure if this is my gut telling me no, or my fear of taking risks 😂

I help crunchy expecting mamas who are craving ancestral wisdom and a soft landing into motherhood go from overwhelmed and unsure if the right support is out there, to deeply nourished and healing the way her body always knew how, through my sacred window pillars of care. Feedback please !

In February, I set the goal to have 5 consultations in March. As-of Saturday, I’ve hit that goal! And (!!!) I just found out that a third mom booked me! What’s interesting to me is that all three of these moms, I’ve been talking with for a while. The first, since September (she’s the one I wrote about last week); the second, since January; and the third, for 6 years (I’ve offered doula services for 4 pregnancies now, and she’s never taken me up on it until this one…) I’d love to figure out how to make my interest -> conversion time a lot shorter. But, for now, I’m celebrating this win!
