About this episode
Your doula consults feel good. They’re emotional. Connected. Even meaningful.
And then… nothing happens.
If you’re getting ghosted after long, heartfelt consults, I want you to hear this clearly: it’s not your likability, your warmth, or your ability to connect.
It’s your structure.
In this episode, I share a moment that genuinely humbled me- despite selling nearly $5 million in my career, I found myself struggling on sales calls.
When I brought it to my coach, I expected a small tweak. Instead, he challenged the foundation and reminded me of something every successful business owner eventually learns:
Sales calls are always the biggest needle mover.
You’ll learn:
- Why long consults don’t actually build trust
- Where doulas accidentally lose authority without realizing it
- How over-educating creates confusion instead of safety
- The simple consult structure that creates clarity, confidence, and decisions
- How to ask for the yes without feeling awkward or salesy
If your consults feel emotionally rich but don’t convert, this episode will reframe everything.
You don’t need to become a different person.
You need a structure that holds the room.
