You are a doula. You are also a business owner. You’re self-employed! That can be intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be! It is often something that I see doulas neglect. They want to be a doula, they are excited to work with clients, but they do NOT love the idea of running a business!
Another amazing thing to aspire to (or being with if you have the finances!) is to hire a team of contractors or employees who are helping to run the business parts that are not your favorite bits. I have a wonderful VA, Hunter, who I’d be lost without at the moment. She makes my life 100% easier and I am thrilled to have her. However, my business could not afford that kind of extra help until just these last few months. So it is not something you need, or always have the option of, rushing right into from the jump
Key Takeaways:
- You are a business owner!
- You are officially Self-Employed
- That doesn’t mean you have to become an expert on all things business
- But do the best you can so you can help your business move forward!
