In this final episode of Season 2, I had the pleasure of chatting with Ashley Marg from @babybirdbirthservices. Ashley is a mom of four who married her high school sweetheart. Her fascination she has for all things pregnancy, birth & postpartum led her to become a doula, which stems from her own experience advocating for her birth wishes and learning to trust her intuition.
