Kids & Family
On today's podcast, we're going to talk with team members of Evidence Based Birth®, about a wrap-up of this past year and what our goals are for next year. Dr. Rebecca Dekker (she/her) is the founder and CEO of Evidence Based Birth® where in a world without allergies, you would find Rebecca running a garden center or maybe leading a summer camp for kids who love animals. Erin Wilson (she/her) is the research editor for Evidence Based Birth® where if Erin were stranded on a desert island, she would be fine with lots of coffee and a big sun hat. After 10 years as an on-call doula, Erin is currently taking it slow in the mountains doing lots of cooking and exploring with her family. Ali Buchanan (she/her) is the operations coordinator and content team manager for Evidence Based Birth® where you can find Ali quoting movies, drinking coffee on the beach, and dreaming she was a backup dancer for Janet Jackson. Iya Mystique Faodugun (they/she) is the podcast coordinator and inclusivity specialist for Evidence Based Birth® where they are our table flipping, foodie loving unicorn who wants to heal all marginalized communities. Cat LaPlante (she/her) is the director of the instructor program and program team manager for Evidence Based Birth® where Cat delights in surrounding herself with the love of family and friends as she works hard along with her husband to keep five kids alive and thriving in a faith-centered lifestyle. We talk about our favorite team projects for 2021 such as past podcast episodes, our creative growth as a team, and the recent EBB Instructor retreat.
