Leah Karin is a health enthusiast. And, just like many things in her life, she approaches healthcare from an "outside of the box" practice.  Combining her training as a Doula and personal trainer with being a mental health advocate and mentor, Karin assists clients on their journey to finding their own spiritual, mental, and physical breakthroughs. She brings a warm energy to every room enters through her vulnerability, honesty, and personal testimony. Leah Karin has successfully found a way to brand her "sunshine" energy, thus creating a people-centered business built on positivity and providing overwhelming support. 

This Huntsville native, by way of Chicago, is a sage-smudgin, sister circle lovin', eclectic creative womb warrior with a giant smile, colorful bouquet of flowers growing out of her mind, and an open heart. Leah Karin also wants it to be known that her most precious assignment yet is being responsible for raising two beautiful daughters (currently 10 and 22 months) into two beautiful women who will love themselves wholly. 

In this episode, Leah sits down with us to discuss what a Doula is, the importance of Doula's in the African American community, and her fitness journey. She is an honest and open spirit with an enormous amount of passion behind everything she does and she lets nothing stop her. She said she was honored, but we are the ones who feel truly honored to have been in her presence. 

We decided to split this one into 2 episodes, because her story is such a great one that we had to reserve an hour just for that! So, we hope you enjoy Part 1 of this 2 part episode and if you'd like more information of Leah, you can find her at the links below:
