This blog is one for my fellow doulas…
At the start of every year I sit down and think about direction and goals for my business. Part of this process is noting down significant days in the upcoming year that might be relevant for social media and blog posts. Having dates as a pillar for content creation is really useful - now, whether I remember to action some of these content posts is, of course, another matter!
This year I’m sharing the list in the hope that it helps other doulas. The last few years have been challenging for many of us, so lets start 2023 with some positive vibes ;)
Oh, and if you know of a day that I might include then please let me know, I’ll happily edit the list to keep it as comprehensive as possible.
