Sabia The Black Doula

Sabia The Black Doula 💛 Author, Doula Educator, Spiritual Care Practitioner
💼Founder of Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings and For the Village, Inc.

My name is Sabia Wade and I am a Full Spectrum Doula, as well as a Reiki II Practitioner. I am currently living in San Diego, CA and I am open to assisting births in San Diego County. I am also open to assisting with births outside of San Diego County, if my travel expenses are accommodated. I am currently training under Birth Arts International and my experience began with The Prison Birth Project, located in Massachusetts, where I served incarcerated parents and parents on drug maintenance medications. From there, I have been able to work with many different parents, including military and teen parents. I believe in empowering birthing parents in their birth of choice but also preparing them and supporting them for the known and unknown. I love working with all families, regardless of race, economic status, gender, sexuality or culture.

I promised a herbal class for birth workers and I know youre probably saying “Finally, Sabia!” but here it is! Lol

Working with plants is a practice of care. One that’s been passed down through our families and communities for generations.

Clinical Herbalism 101 was created to help birth workers and caregivers deepen their relationship with plants as partners in healing.

In this space, we’ll explore how to use herbs safely, respectfully, and effectively in our daily lives and the care we offer others. Because plants aren’t one-size-fits-all. Learning to listen to them, and to the people we serve, is part of the work of collective care.

For accessibility purposes, please feel free to reserve a spot with a cost that’s in your capacity. Link in my bioooo 💛

Today I bought my momma a house! If you know about my mom then you know I’ll give her the world plus more. I’m still wrapping my head around all of this because I remember when I couldn’t fathom any of this. I just remember quitting my job in 2018 and committing to Justice, community and living a life that allowed me to live in all my fullness. The blessings that has come from that commitment continue to leave me in awe, leave me in praise and leave me in humility. I’m gonna be taking this one in for a while and hopefully come up with more words that make sense lol… Nana, I hope you’re proud 💛

Got back to my rural town of 1200 people last night at 2am from San Diego because my Aunt Clara said I can’t miss homecoming at our family church. The occasion called for orange and an open heart so that’s what I brought 💛

My great-great-great grandparents sat in the pews of this church. My great-great grandparents, my great grandma, my grandma, my mother and now, me.

Today’s sermon included conversations about our current political times, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X and what it means to be Black in America.

I’m not religious but my spirituality includes the paths of my elders and ancestors. In Black rural communities, the church is where we father. We claps for each other’s wins and hold each other in our tears.

And after church, we found out our neighbor had taken in the dog we’d been feeding and was ready to take in but he never came back. He’s so happy and healthy now!🥰

I’ve always carried some imposter syndrome in this work—committed to reproductive justice, building businesses without formal education, and learning in real time.

But stepping into this new role as Strategic Advisor with reminds me that lived experience, community wisdom, and vision are just as valuable as credentials.

My path hasn’t been traditional—and that’s the point. Reimagining how capital flows, how we build businesses, and how we center care requires voices that have walked outside the “traditional” lanes.

This role feels deeply meaningful because it’s proof that our lived knowledge is enough. 💛
