About Sabia Wade
Sabia is a Black, Queer CEO, Investor, Author, Educator, Full Spectrum Doula, and expander of Black Luxury. Sabia is the founder of Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings, For the Village Inc, Loads of Pride Logistics, and author of Birthing Liberation.

She worked with The Prison Birth Doula Project supporting incarcerated and formerly incarcerated people with substance abuse disorders at birth. During her time as a volunteer there, she discovered that reproductive justice touches everything from the water we drink to the medical systems available to us to the education and incarceration system and beyond.
Sabia’s expanded perspective of Reproductive Justice and Black Luxury led to a professional focus on forming solutions to expand wealth, access, and possibilities for Black people and marginalized communities by founding Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings for community care workers. On the ground, her non-profit organization, For the Village, provides doulas at no or low cost to low-income and marginalized communities in San Diego, CA.
