Of all the things in the world, why are you doing this? And what is a Doula?Was it hard or easy to come to that realization and own your truth? How can others find their truth?TOPICS:Millennials. What are the unique cultural challenges that millennials face in terms of talking about, discussing and learning about the reproductive system? As opposed to older generationsWhat are some stereotypes or misperceptions you get from people that you would like to open peoples minds about or offer an alternate viewpoint?What percentage of allbodies is politically focused vs educational?Policy change. Ideal policy change? What does that look like if you had a magic wand?Millennials sometimes feel i can't make change. All these big lobbying groups. What role can they play?Men. Historical context midwives were not allowed to be educated. European doctors that organized, wrote the literature, made the rules. Hence a large part why we are where we are today. Even in today's culture, male dominated society of raising capital, VCs, investment firms, scalability, roi, kpi, metrics to hit based on boundaries of narrow thinking.Question is want to be very careful in my language here: if men have been part of the problem historically. And deservedly so. I'm a man and i agree. How do we include them in the conversation moving forward? Without feeling ostracized and what role can they play?Challenges of not having a Business degree? Is it necessary to be taken seriously? Or just understand the lingo? Or both? Do you wish you had done something differently knowing what you know now to save you stress?Lack of resources. Money? People who are listening who want to build their own community? Advice you would give based on what your have learned.What's been your own biggest personal struggle or fear that you've had to overcome in building out this community?What is something you wish someone had told you 5 years ago, or you had told yourself, that you had to learn on your own? But would have made life so much easier had you known.Who is the right person for this community and how can they get involved. Whats the range? From the least to most
