I recently had the incredible opportunity to connect with and interview DONA International president Sunday Tortelli, for the 'Dearest Doula' podcast. Ms. Tortelli was incredibly sweet and informative, and gave an excellent insight into the philosophy and doula training process one can expect with DONA. In addition to being the president, Sunday is also a birth and postpartum doula, DONA approved doula trainer, childbirth educator, and lactation consultant.
