EBB 228 - Uplifting Radicalized Birth Work with Anna, The Pocket Doula

EBB 228 - Uplifting Radicalized Birth Work with Anna, The Pocket Doula

On today's podcast, we're going to talk with the founder of The Pocket Doula, Anna Balagtas, about uplifting queer, and trans-care.

Anna Balagtas (she/siya) is a queer, Pinay full circle birth worker, educator, facilitator, energy worker, and pleasure advocate. Her practice is rooted in the decolonization of birth work, radical QTBIPOC care, and queer reproductive justice, taught to her by king yaa. Anna's deepest joy comes from witnessing her communities thrive through community care, mutual aid, and abolition work.

We talk about how Anna started The Pocket Doula and her journey to decolonized birth work. We also talk about Anna's experience with radicalizing perinatal care for QTBIPOC communities by creating empowering spaces centered on queer reproductive justice.

Content warning: We mention abortion, the upcoming Supreme Court decision on abortion, queerphobia, transphobia, medical trauma, medical racism, death, miscarriage, and loss.
