Doula services extend beyond pregnancy and childbirth. Two South Dakota doulas discuss helping people through life's journeys and changes.
Kelsie Thomas is co-owner of Transitions: Doula & Life Services in Sioux Falls. She outlines the exact services doulas offer pregnant parents and their partners before and after they grow their families.
She also covers the other transitions a doula can guide you through, including bereavement and death (1:00 to 22:09).
Beth Walz Davis is a certified end of life doula and life doula in Rapid City. She discusses what makes a good death and a good life — and the importance of agency during the natural process of dying (22:10 to 48:50).
