Welcome to the Before Baby Podcast. My name is Lilli. I’m a hypnotherapist by day, and currently in my own “before baby” season of life. Over on TikTok, I’ve been sharing some of the emotional work I’m doing before my husband and I start trying for a baby. Through my work as a hypnotherapist, I’ve seen how deeply our early experiences shape us. It made me curious about the parts of myself I might want to understand a little better before stepping into motherhood. This podcast isn’t about becoming perfect, and it’s definitely not about getting everything right. Every parent influences their child in different ways, and that’s simply part of being human. For me, this journey is just about approaching this next chapter of life with a little more self-awareness, honesty, and care. In this podcast, I’ll be sharing reflections from this season - the emotional work, the questions I’m sitting with, and what I’m learning along the way as I prepare for motherhood.
