Happy October Dearest Doula Community! Fall is in the air, and we couldn't be more excited. I recently had the opportunity to chat with fellow birth worker Emily Landry, and found her kind and lighthearted spirit fitting right in with the amazing lineup of speakers we've had here on the show.  In addition to being a Licensed Massage Therapist and Birth Doula, Emily is also the owner of Mama Massage Doula Services, currently serving clients in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area. Listen in today for her sweet and inspiring take on life as a birth worker.
