As they wrap up their six-month coaching relationship, Megan shares her doula journey—from taking her training in January 2024 to attending 37 births in her first year. They discuss the challenges of pricing, the importance of sustainable pacing, and how Megan learned to prioritize quality prenatal care while balancing family life with two young children. This candid conversation offers valuable insights for new and experienced doulas alike about building a business that truly works for your life. Meet Megan: Hi there! I’m Megan (she/her), a birth doula and lactation educator supporting families throughout the Twin Cities in Minnesota. I'm also a mom of two and like a lot of doulas, my own births completely changed the direction of my life and led me into this wonderful world of birth. My work is centered around evidence-based, judgment-free support that helps families feel informed, grounded and connected to their own intuition throughout pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I support a wide range of birth experiences and love having honest conversations about the nuance of birthwork, advocacy and caring for families in ways that feel individualized and sustainable. https://www.instagram.com/meganmartinbirth/ CONNECT with Kaely on TikTok or  Instagram https://www.tiktok.com/@doulacoach https://www.instagram.com/Harroddoula/ [https://www.instagram.com/Harroddoula/] Subscribe to the Newsletter so you never miss an announcement here: https://www.harroddoulaservices.com/newsletter [https://www.harroddoulaservices.com/newsletter] If you like this episode, don't forget to share it to your Instagram stories and tag me @harroddoula Doula Tips and Tits is produced by Kaely Harrod of Harrod Doula Services It is sponsored by The Doula Biz Blueprint Self-Paced Class for Doulas Launching Successful and Sustainable Businesses!  Music by Madirfan: Hidden Place on Pixabay Support the show [https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kaelyh]

A Business That Still Grows (Even When You Step Back)

Subscribe to be the first to see our Springtime Announcements!!! Coming in MAY!!! Subscribe here: https://www.harroddoulaservices.com/newsletter Last episode, I shared that I had my highest revenue quarter ever… while barely showing up online. So in this episode, we’re getting into what actually made that possible. Because it wasn’t more content, more visibility, or more “consistency” in the way we usually think about it. It was referrals, reputation, systems, and a business that’s built to keep working—even when I’m not constantly “on.” If you’ve ever felt like your business would fall apart the second you stopped posting, this one is going to challenge that—in the best way.

I Didn’t Disappear: My Business Was Thriving Even In A Busy Life Season

Subscribe to be the first to see our Springtime Announcements!!! Coming in MAY!!! Subscribe here: https://www.harroddoulaservices.com/newsletter I’ve been a little quieter than usual—and not for the reason you might think. In this episode, I’m sharing where I’ve been, what this past season has looked like behind the scenes, and why my business actually grew during a time when I wasn’t consistently showing up online. This has been a season where my family needed more of me, and I made the decision to be fully present there. And what surprised me most? My business didn’t fall apart because of it. It held. It grew. It supported me right back. We’re talking about what that really means when it comes to sustainability, visibility, and building a business that doesn’t rely on you being “on” all the time.
