À propos de cet audio

 There comes a moment in many doula businesses when everything is technically "working"… You're getting clients. You're good at what you do. You're busy, maybe sometimes too busy. And yet, the income still isn't where it needs to be. In this episode, I'm talking about the very real (and very common) moment when doulas hit an income ceiling and what to do when you realize that trading hours for dollars simply isn't sustainable long-term. I share my own story of reaching this point a few years into my postpartum doula business: juggling multiple families in a day, racing across town, coming home exhausted to my own kids, and realizing that no matter how hard I worked, there were only so many hours available. And the numbers just weren't adding up. If you've ever thought: "I can't raise my rates any higher…" "I love this work, but I need to make more money" "I don't want to burn out or quit, but something has to change" This episode is for you. In this episode, we cover: Why so many doulas hit an income ceiling 2–3 years into their business The emotional reality of loving the work but needing more financial stability When (and how) to raise your rates - even if you're newer than other doulas in your area How to increase your income without adding more in-person hours Smart ways to enhance your doula packages with add-ons and virtual services How to create downsell offers for families who can't hire you as their full-service doula Why digital products and virtual sessions can be a game-changer The role agencies and passive income streams can play in breaking the income ceiling How to build a doula business that supports your family, your future, and your longevity in this work I also talk about the importance of thinking like a "grown-up" business owner so that you are setting rates that allow you to save for taxes, retirement, your kids' activities, and your future - not just scrape by. There is a way to work fewer hours, help more families, and earn more money. And it doesn't require sacrificing your health, your family, or your love for this work. Ready to take the next step?
