Topic: The Role of Men as Partners in the Birthing Process Guest: Mr. Joshua Zawadi, Dad Doula Founder &amp; CEO of Melanated Daddy

We have a very important conversation this week with Joshua Zawadi, Founder of Melanated Daddy and Dad Doula on the necessity of partner support. Joshua shares with us the experience of struggling to get his wife truly supportive care during her pregnancy, and as a result discovering that not only is pregnancy support lacking, but pregnancy partner support is nearly non-existent. Out of this need his businesses were born. Joshua shares with us all about the tangible support tools, mental health support and practical application of birthing partner support and how they can prepare themselves and their birthing partners for pregnancy, birth and parenting.
