- After years of supporting couples in both the delivery room and the recovery room as a birth doula, Brian Salmon noticed a theme. The dads and birth partners he worked with rarely felt confident or prepared for the journey ahead of them. Brian was determined to change this. He created the Rocking Dads™ course to teach expectant dads everything they need to know in order to be a supportive birth and breastfeeding partner. Next, he partnered with relationship and perinatal mental health expert, Kirsten Brunner, to transfer his many years of experience and wisdom into book form. The result is an easy-to-read guide, full of practical, modern-day survival tips for expectant dads & birth partners. -

If you were the leader of a company how would you lead?
Would the people around you feel empowered to lead?
Would you ensure they succeeded?
