While I was studying for the bar exam earlier this year, I had an epiphany: I want to become a doula! I know I tinkered around with the idea for a while, but I think it was at this time that I finally realized that this is a priority for me.
After doing some research, in the traditional sense and also putting out feelers who are more in the know about this, I took one of the first concrete steps in training to be a certified doula by registering for a course. While I am the beginning stages of my doula training, I feel that my training will never really end as I will continue to learn along the way.
I’m especially looking forward to being part of mom’s (and the ʻohana) lives in the special transitional period that is so magical: when a baby joins us earthside<3
