Did you know that exercise can positively impact your doula clients’ births BEYOND just the physical stuff?

In this episode, Emily Stanwyck and I will be talking about all the (not so obvious) ways doulas can approach the fitness conversion with their clients.

Committing to fitness can be tricky during and after pregnancy, and it’s easy to want to avoid it altogether… but it’d be a disservice to your doula clients to not talk about the benefits consistent movement has on the entire perinatal period. 

Emily Stanwyck is a mom, wife, birth doula, birth educator, and BIRTHFIT Leader. She began her journey into the birth world through fitness as a BIRTHFIT Coach. Through her work with moms in the gym, she began educating herself and attending births as a doula. 

She has attended many births over the past 7 years, but nothing gave her a greater insight into the birth world than diving head first into her own experience through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum in 2018. 

To put it lightly… Emily is kicking ass in the birth community.

Press play so you can learn how to help your doula clients have an active pregnancy without them dreading every second of exercise.
