Season #4 Episode #7

Join resident sleep expert Amanda Jewson as she speaks with Samantha Griffin, an impassioned woman who unequivocally believes in the voices of women, especially Black women, and trusts their decisions regarding their bodies, their children, and their families. 

As a Certified Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula and Certified Childbirth Educator, Samantha came to the realization that as one woman, she could only support one woman at any given time so she multiplied her efforts by founding DC Metro Maternity, a boutique parenting support agency staffed entirely by women of color, and became a doula trainer. Samantha is committed to building the wealth and power of Black doulas, Black businesses, and the Black community as a whole.
