Ash Spivak (she/her) is an internationally certified birth doula and co-founder of allbodies, a digital platform for modern health education + support. Her book on birth, Why Did No One Tell Me This? was released by Hachette/Running Press in 2020.
Previously Ash worked as a consultant for Ricki Lake and Abby Epstein's renowned BOBB Films, which put out The Business of Being Born.
Ash views the birth process as a powerful framework for just about everything—life transitions, the creative process, healing and integrating past trauma—and believes it has the potential to initiate incredible growth when pregnant people have the support they need throughout.
It is her great honor to help "doula" new doulas!
