Back to Episodes91. From Loss to Leadership: The Story Behind the Doula Collective with Amy Silva
Description
This conversation is going to stay with you.
Because this isn’t just about doula work…
This is about what it means to be a human holding other humans through the most life-altering moments they’ll ever experience.
Today, I’m sitting down with Amy Silva, founder of the Collaborative Doula Collective and the Collaborative Doula Conference, and we go far beyond surface-level conversations about birth work.
We go into the why behind it all.
The kind of why that’s born from lived experience.
From her grief. From her love. From life cracking her open and asking her to become someone new.
Amy shares the deeply personal season that shaped everything she’s building today. A story about grief and new life. Side by side- and what that taught her about what doulas are really holding space for.
We talk about:
– What doulas carry that no one talks about
– The emotional weight of supporting others while living your own story
– Why this work is bigger than business… and requires community to sustain it
– And how to hold space without losing yourself in the process
It’s the kind of conversation that reminds you:
You don’t get to separate the work from the woman.
And maybe… you’re not meant to.
If you’ve ever felt the weight of this work…
If you’ve ever craved a space where you can be supported too,
This is for you.
