About Colleen

Colleen has been a midwife for over 30 years and was frustrated by the gap in postpartum care. She noticed women were prepared and supported through pregnancy and birth, but not prepared or supported in postpartum. She took the leap and quit her hospital job and started her private postpartum education business in 2020, and shares what she's learned about starting a business, getting insurance and creating new pathways for midwives.
