Welcome to the very first episode of The Doula and The Doc, where birth meets brains and heart! In this episode, you’ll meet the dynamic duo behind the mic: Vanessa Salerno, the nurturing doula with a calming presence, and Dr. Joseph Sgroi, the obstetrician with the credentials (and a sense of humor to match).
Together, they dive into who they are, why they do this work, and how their collaboration is flipping the script on traditional birth support. Expect real talk, laughs, and maybe even a few happy tears as they share personal stories and bust some big myths about doulas, doctors, and what it really means to be supported during birth.
They’re here to challenge the “medical vs. holistic” mindset and show how teamwork can truly empower birthing people. Plus, they’ll give you a sneak peek of what’s to come — from juicy birth topics to expert guests and listener Q&As.
So grab a cuppa, get comfy, and let’s kick off this wild and wonderful journey together. Birth talk has never been this fun!
