International Doula Month Reels Challenge
Mock up of the 2026 International doula month reels guide on three pieces of paper.

Every May, I run a short-form video challenge for doulas who want to be more visible to the families they serve. The 4th Annual International Doula Month Reels Challenge is open, and the guide is free.

What you get

Sixty-two short-form video prompts for the full month of May. Two tiers, one for newer doulas and one for experienced doulas, so you can pick prompts that match where you are right now. Every prompt is written to help you talk to expecting families, not other doulas.

How it works

You download the guide, pick the prompt that fits your week, and post on whichever platform your clients actually use. Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, or LinkedIn video for the doulas working with corporate clients. Use the hashtag #DoulaMonthReels so other doulas can find you and so I can cheer you on.

You don’t need perfect lighting or fancy edits. You need clear, human communication that helps someone feel more prepared and supported. Even three videos this month will put you ahead of most.

What’s inside the guide

  • 31 prompts for newer doulas in their first year or two
  • 31 prompts for experienced doulas ready to attract specialty clients
  • Guidance on turning each video into a caption, blog topic, or consult talking point
  • A simple tracker for the numbers that actually matter, not just views

A quick note before you start

A video you post is always better than the one you keep editing in your head. You don’t have to do all 31 days. You just have to begin.
