Welcome to "Where It All Started," the podcast that delves into the transformative journey of hypnobirthing and the remarkable story of the inception of The Ellie's Gift app. Join your host Lucy Livesey as she sits down with the visionary behind it all, Tamara Cianfini.

Join us in this episode as Lucy and Tamara share their inspiring journey, exploring the incredible potential of the mind, tools, and techniques that empower individuals to manage anxiety, reclaim control.

In 2007, Tamara stumbled upon the world of hypnobirthing and little did she know, this chance encounter would shape the trajectory of her life forever. With a passion that ignited instantly, Tamara embarked on a journey to explore, teach, and empower countless parents on their birthing paths. A Mother of two, Nurse, Hypnotherapist, Birth Doula, Teacher, and Midwife Trainer, Tamara's expertise has been a guiding light for many families.

As the former Chair of UK HypnoBirthing and the Founder of World Hypnobirthing Day on March 21st, Tamara's impact on the birthing community is immeasurable. Her book, "The Birth Path," stands as a testament to her dedication and wisdom.

Lucy Livesey, your podcast host, became an advocate for hypnobirthing after experiencing its transformative power firsthand. Under Tamara's guidance, Lucy used the Wise Hippo Birthing Programme for her own birthing journey with her daughter Ellie, even in the face of a tragic loss. The bond between Lucy and Tamara grew stronger, as Lucy continued her training under Tamara's mentorship. Today, Lucy incorporates these techniques into her work to support families navigating the challenging journey of baby loss.
