Most doulas think they don’t have an audience... but you already have a network filled with potential clients who know, like, and trust you.

In this week’s Hot + Brave, Bianca shares how to tap into your existing community to fill your roster with dream clients without feeling salesy or awkward. Learn how to reach out authentically, reframe visibility as care work, and finally stop apologizing for wanting to be seen.

This episode is your pep talk, mindset reset, and a preview of what we’ll be doing together inside the Get More Clients Challenge, starting next week.
Because your next client probably will not come from an ad or a hashtag, they will come from your cousin’s coworker who’s been waiting for your support.

In this episode, Bianca Sprague invites the birth world into a critical and overdue conversation: the end of the weekend doula training model.

The weekend era served an early purpose. It opened the door to formalized doula work, community support, and advocacy inside medical systems. Yet birth work has evolved, and the expectations placed on doulas have grown dramatically. Today’s doulas must be trauma informed, anti oppression grounded, consent focused, emotionally literate, and prepared to collaborate inside complex medical environments. A two day training cannot offer the depth this work now requires.

Bianca shares the history behind the weekend format, why it no longer serves doulas or birthing families, and her own experience entering the field through a weekend training that left her inspired but underprepared. She also speaks to the moment she realized many training models do not invest in long term success for their graduates, and how that shaped her commitment to comprehensive, justice based education.

This is not a call out. It is a call in. It is a respectful evolution rooted in care for doulas, for families, and for the integrity of birth work.

If you are a new or aspiring doula, this episode will help you understand what true preparation looks like. If you trained through a weekend model and still do not feel confident, you are not alone. And you do not have to start over. bebo mia offers a Certification Transfer Program to support doulas who want deeper skills, mentorship, and community.

Birth work deserves depth. Doulas deserve training that sustains them. Families deserve confident, skilled support. The weekend era opened the door. The future will fortify it.

You can be the best doula in the world, compassionate, skilled, and deeply dedicated, but if people don’t know you exist, they can’t hire you.

In this episode of Hot + Brave, Bianca dives into what she calls The Invisible Doula Problem - why so many incredible birthworkers struggle to get noticed, and how visibility can become an act of care instead of something that feels salesy or self-promotional.

You’ll learn how being seen is actually part of your advocacy, the small steps you can take today to start showing up more confidently, and why perfection isn’t the goal...connection is.

This conversation is packed with truth-telling, warmth, and practical insight for doulas who are ready to grow their businesses while staying grounded in their values.

If you’ve been feeling like the world doesn’t quite know you’re out there yet, this episode will remind you: your work deserves to be known, and your community deserves to find you.

And if you’re ready to finally become visible, confident, and booked-out, join us for the Get More Clients Challenge, a 5-day live business accelerator designed to help doulas and reproductive health professionals attract clients without burnout or busywork.

In this powerful follow-up episode, Bianca sits down once again with Bobette from Uzuri Birth in Ghana to go even deeper into the realities of birthwork in West Africa.

Together, they explore what birth really looks like in Ghana today: from systemic challenges and cultural beliefs about danger in birth, to the power of traditional practices that are still alive (and those being revived). Bobette shares some of her most impactful birth stories, her dream of building a community-led birth house, and the intersection of ancestral wisdom and modern reproductive care.

This episode is a heart-led conversation about reclaiming tradition, confronting colonial legacies in birth care, and returning to community-rooted models of support.

If you’re passionate about reproductive justice, birthworker education, or decolonizing doula work, this is one you don’t want to miss.

Plus:

• Bianca shares a personal update on reconnecting with her sister after a decade apart
• How a full moon breathwork ceremony cracked open a season of grief and healing
• And what’s next as she begins a new journey of feminist business healing

This episode is not neutral. Oh, and we cuss. A lot.

Bianca Sprague brings rage, grief, and truth to the mic, naming fascism, Gaza, Trump’s lies about Tylenol, and the systems failing families. In a world flooded with disinformation, birthworkers are the antidote.

You’ll hear why doulas are not just supporting births, they are resisting fascism, protecting autonomy and informed choice, and holding the line for families. This is a battle cry for anyone who has ever thought about becoming a doula, and a reminder for every birthworker that what you do matters.

In this episode:

• Why Trump’s Tylenol comments are dangerous
• How disinformation harms pregnant people and families
• The research that proves doulas improve outcomes and save money
• Why becoming a doula is an act of resistance

Money stories run deep… and for so many of us, they carry shame, fear, and generational wounds. In this episode of Hot + Brave, Bianca sits down with Jalisa Hardy, the founder of the Healed Money Movement, to explore what happens when we decide to heal our relationship with money.

Jalisa shares her own journey of untangling money wounds and offers a fresh perspective on what financial healing looks like for women, birth workers, and caregivers. From naming the systems that keep us in scarcity to reclaiming worth and value in our work, this conversation is equal parts vulnerable and practical.

Whether you’re a doula trying to build a sustainable business, a parent navigating financial stress, or someone curious about how money intersects with healing, this episode will leave you with new tools and a lot of hope. Tune in to learn how Jalisa’s Healed Money Movement is reshaping the way we think about money, worth, and liberation.
