51. When “Just Showing Up” Isn’t Enough: Silent Doula Sales Killer #3

Lisa Villani

It's time to talk about one of the sneakiest sales killers in the doula world—the one that feels authentic, heart-centered, even nourishing… but still keeps you broke.

It’s called The Passive Presence, and it’s sabotaging more consults than you think.

You’re showing up. You’re kind. You’re encouraging. Everyone loves your vibe.

But when it’s time to lead the conversation?
You vanish.

If you're hearing, “You’re so inspiring!” but never “How do I work with you?”—this episode is your wake-up call.

Inside, I’ll walk you through:

  • Why connection doesn’t automatically lead to conversion (and what to do instead)
  • How heart-led doulas accidentally confuse silence with respect
  • The exact consult mistakes that feel supportive—but actually kill the sale
  • A word-for-word shift you can make TODAY to step into confident leadership without sounding pushy
  • And why clarity and confidence are the real currencies of trust

It’s time to stop being passive and start being powerful.

Because your presence should magnetize—not just exist.
