Have you ever said the words "I don't advocate for you, I empower you to advocate for yourself"?
Did your doula training teach you that advocating for a client was 'out of scope'?
Do you believe that advocating for your client or yourself involves aggression, conflict and tension?
I'm here to call BS on all of it.
Calling birth workers and birth nerds alike.. join me for the next
Better Birth Masterclass: ADVOCACY 101.
There's a way to advocate for your client (or patient, or friend, or partner, or sister) without feeling awkward, like you're stirring up trouble, like you're being a people pleaser, or like you don't know what to say or do. It takes knowledge, practice, confidence, and ovaries.

What we will cover:
What is advocacy? 3 types, principles, common misconceptions
What is the purpose of advocacy?
Why do we need advocacy in the Australian maternity system?
What are we advocating for?
What human rights is advocacy grounded in?
How can advocacy lead to better birth?
How do you do advocacy? (let's learn!)
What is 'doula scope', how has advocacy been sidelined, and what role do you play?

Troubleshooting sticky situations
Self care as an advocate
To Better Birth!

Better Birth: Masterclass Series One
"I finally watched this zoom after missing it on the day. I just wanted to say thank you as I've learned so much from you about consent and hospital policy. I'm not currently pregnant but feel I am much more aware going into choosing my future care provider."
- Brooke
"I was yelling in agreeable and passion at my laptop the entire time! Feel like I’ve got a bomb underneath me now and a better idea in how I can support my birthing families."
- Toni Thompson
"I feel educated to make decisions, empowered to use my voice, and ready to expect better!"
- Tilly
"This really affirmed that I'm not crazy to believe what I believe"
- Rebecca
