POSTPARTUM CHEF + DOULA MENTORSHIP
A PRIVATE, SMALL GROUP COMMUNITY CIRCLE
with Alicia — exclusively for NOURISH Level 1 graduates
DATES TO BE ANNOUNCED
Being a Postpartum Chef is deeply rewarding, but especially when you are first starting out there is a great deal to figure out about your process and how you want to work with families. There is a process of trial and error that is inevitable and valuable, but having ongoing support can make your launch and growth more easeful, sustainable and enjoyable.
After having completed the NOURISH training, you may be sitting with questions such as:
Where do I find clients?
Am I charging the right amount?
How do I care for families with diverse diets—and myself in the process?
How do I combine my skillsets but not end up in burnout?
What do I do if families ask me a question I don’t know the answer to?
This mentorship offers guidance, much needed time with community and Alicia’s expertise to help you build a business that truly sustains you.
WHAT YOU’LL GAIN
Business Sustainability
Support defining your offerings, packages, pricing and weekly schedule to avoid burnout and create a business that can thrive.
Menu Planning + Client Communication
Skills for interviews, menu-planning, boundary-setting and compassionate, clear conversations.
Chef Self Care
Tools for care of your own body and help navigating your work/life balance.
Menus & Nutrition
Ongoing recipe inspiration and postpartum nutritional guidance.
Money Confidence
Real time support with communication with clients about money matters and creating systems for yourself for stable income.
Marketing & Growth
Support with websites, social media, networking, food photography, and honing your specialty.
Customizing Care
Strategies for meeting diverse client needs, from specialty diets to custom packages.
& most importantly…
Community, Community, Community…
To help you avoid isolation, the stress that comes from not having colleagues to process with and the regulation and warmth that comes from gathering with the like-minded, nurturing souls that you all are!
HOW IT WORKS
Each month, we will gather on Zoom in a informal circle for 90 minutes. During this intimate circle we will share:
Themes coming up in your practice (ie. boundaries, booking clients)
Actual case studies (you will bring some and Alicia will share some from her career)
Real-time community care and support as challenges and paint points arise
Body practices and self-care practices to sustain you in this work
If you want to grow your Postpartum Chef business with confidence and sustainability, this mentorship is for you.
