Podcast Description — Episode 9 Welcome back to Postpartum Doula Diaries 💛 In today’s episode, I’m taking you along for another week in the life — postpartum doula work, motherhood, and everything in between. This week looked like: • Supporting families through the early weeks • Mum life while navigating dropped naps (send help 😅) • Menopause chats (because motherhood isn’t the only identity shift happening) • Running into… is that my cosmetic Botox injector? (Yes. Yes it is.) • Rescheduling visits due to a death in the family — holding space for real life • Snack prep, toddler chaos, and warm chatty Nonna energy in the kitchen • And remembering (again) that no two days are ever the same in this work. Postpartum doula life is tender, funny, unpredictable, and deeply human. There’s no script — just showing up, holding space, and mothering the mother. If you’re listening along, I would love to hear from you — send me a message, leave a review, or let me know what part of postpartum you’d like me to talk about next 💛 Find me on Instagram: @empowering.mothers.doula Your support helps this podcast reach more women who need to hear they’re not alone ✨

🎙️ Postpartum Doula Diaries – Episode 8 Balancing Mum Life and Business 💛 This week’s episode is a real-life look behind the scenes — balancing motherhood, work, and the beautiful chaos that comes with both. Between ENT appointments, speech pathology visits, a deep dive into Tutankhamun’s tomb (Hello year 7 Homework 😅), a little op-shopping for vocabulary day, and endless batches of cookies and protein balls — I share what it really looks like to juggle mum life while growing a business you love. Because being a mum and running a business (or building a career) isn’t easy. There are moments of guilt, joy, overwhelm, and pride — often all in the same day. But it’s all part of this wild, beautiful ride.

Episode 5 of my Postpartum Doula Diaries listen along and find out what I do as a Postpartum Doula in Australia. What do my visits entail? What am I working on behind the scenes? My week 15-21st September

This week I recap a week booked with 9 x 3 hour postpartum visits which ended up being 8 visits and a lengthy emotional phone call as well as a much needed Doula Debrief Dinner. Sorry about the Audio noise at the beginning of this Episode. I promise I'll improve on this next time. Thank you for listening and please feel free to share any feedback, give me a review or share with someone you think would enjoy listening. Thanks again Tara

In Episode 3, I take you inside a busy week in the life of a postpartum doula — four in-home visits, each four hours long, supporting mums and families in the thick of the Fourth Trimester. From nourishing meals and baby snuggles to helping parents find calm, connection, and confidence, this episode shows the rhythm, heart, and reality of this work. If you’ve ever wondered what a postpartum doula actually does during visits, you’ll love this deep dive into the little details that make a big difference.

Episode 2 takes you behind the scenes of a doula’s week—supporting families, a photo shoot, and mentoring. A busy, beautiful look at this unique role.
