Birth is For P*ssies

Having quit her corporate job to become a birth doula, chronic people-pleaser Maya quickly discovers that birthwork is nothing like she expected. Her first day is full of surprises: she sees her first cervix, lands her first official client—provided she keeps their precarious secret—and nervously agrees to cover a birth in the Bronx for a fellow doula. After a rocky start, she helps single mother Celeste through a long night of labor, learning to let go of perfection and embrace the chaotic, beautiful mess of supporting birth. Just as the sun rises and she finally heads home, her phone rings: her next client is in labor.
