The spring 2026 conference season is over! I had such a great time reconnecting with perinatal professional friends from all over the US and making so many new friends as well. Thank you to these event coordinators for allowing me to be a speaker, vendor, panelist, or attendee. I appreciate you all!
Small business owners in this field are incredible people. Each person has a huge heart for making pregnancy, birth, postpartum, breastfeeding, etc. better for families in their communities. They are supporting families every week while also trying to run their business. This means they are doing their own IT, HR, Marketing, accounting, social media, support services, etc. (Often learning these skills as they go!)
Please remember to support your local businesses as you`re planning for your baby and growing family.

We wanted to be sure Lisa`s Happy Birthday Image had lots of PINK! If you see Lisa at a birth, you will notice her bright pink pants and her ((huge)) bright pink doula bag. It`s a great reflection of her bright outlook on life and birth!
Please help us wish Lisa a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY today!
