125 I've seen that look before. How being a birth doula prepared me for being a death doula

Heidi explains how being a doula prepared her end of life doula work

It's 2-22-22 my Abuela passed away this morning. Minutes later, 2 of my clients went into labor. This episode is about the circle of life and how locking eyes with my Abuela in her final moments reminded me that I had seen that same look 1000 times before in childbirth. This episode is processing how transition labor mirrors the death transition.

XOXO Heidi
