Join me for the first book review! I’ll be going over Henci Goer’s The Thinking Woman’s Guide to a Better Birth and how this book, published in 1999, is still relevant today! A great tool for foundational knowledge when preparing for a birth, especially an in-hospital birth.

Join me for the inaugural episode of the JB Doula Podcast! Here I’ll introduce myself, the goals of the podcast, and dip into the very real need we have for community and open honest discussion. Let’s work toward a collaborative maternity care model together!

Welcome to the JB Doula Podcast! Announcing the release of my passion project for the last few years, I’m so excited to discuss everything from informative topics around women’s health and the childbearing years as well as inviting guests to share their birth stories, parent hacks, products or services they offer families and women as well as spot lights on local providers and services as well as local moms starting their own businesses!

Hello and Welcome!

Allow me to reintroduce myself, I’m Jessica Brown, a DONA Certified Birth & Postpartum Doula serving families in Western Pennsylvania.

Inspired to pursue birth work and women’s health from the Homercity Red Tent, I’m amazed at how far I’ve come.

The past handful of years has been a wild ride to get where I am now, and I’m so glad to have followed that calling to birth work. Something I had felt in my bones and knew I had to pursue. This is what I was meant to do, and I’m grateful to all who have helped and supported me along the way.

Join me here as I share what brought me to birth work and where JB Doula is going from here!
