Lliwen MacRae Life Coaching & Hypnobirthing Reviews 

I completed Lliwens Hypnobirthing course in oct/Nov 2022 and it saved me in all honesty. Even though I had birthed 3 babes before this (boys) this was my girl. I was so nervous and anxious and worried. I didn't feel ready to have her, it was a sureal feeling, I am and will forever be grateful to Lliwen for guiding me through my anxiety and worries to feel empowered to birth my baby, her tools and wisdom are just unwavering and I am so so grateful for having her to support me leading upto the birth of my girl, because of those tools I felt empowered, worked through my anxiety and worries and leaned into trust! Trusting myself and my baby. I had a beautiful water birth unassisted with my husband there holding my hand. Thankyou Lliwen. Forever grateful 🙏❤️

I can’t rate Lliwen highly enough. She truly opened our eyes to things that if only we knew the first time round! On our 3rd pregnancy, we knew that this time round needed to be different after our other two resulting in emergency c-sections and a whole lot of trauma attached which we now know could have been avoided if we had known how to navigate through the system. I honestly am so incredibly grateful that Lliwen was able to work with us and empower us to create the birth that we both so dreamed of. I was able to birth our third baby with no interventions, pain relief or trauma. It truly was the most beautiful experience. His birth healed us both in more ways than one and I honestly put it all down to Lliwen and her amazing guidance, wisdom, resources and support. I can’t thank her enough and truly recommend her to every single pregnant Muma out there 🩷

We met Lliwen at the baby expo, where she gave a seminar on Hypnobirthing. I could see her passion for women and birth, and I knew immediately that I had to team up with her.

At 22 weeks, I signed up for her Empowered Birth course. I had a high-BMI pregnancy, and from the start of my prenatal appointments, I was being prepared and groomed for interventions. Even though I had no history of high blood pressure and consistently remained within a normal range—and even after clearing tests for gestational diabetes—I was still being pushed to undergo more tests and scans. I knew it wasn’t right, but I didn’t know how to challenge them without seeming irresponsible. Lliwen gave me the confidence and resources to make informed decisions for myself and my baby. I learned to trust my intuition and believe that my body could do what I knew it was capable of.

Two months ago, I gave birth to my beautiful 🌈 baby. My goal was to have a spontaneous, natural labor with no interventions, and, God willing, that is exactly what happened. I labored at home for four days, using the tools and techniques I had learned. It was a rollercoaster! My birth wasn’t textbook perfect, but I felt empowered every step of the way. I understood what was happening, I felt in control, and even when I didn’t, I was able to surrender to the experience and trust my birth team.

Lliwen is down-to-earth and very personable. She is no-nonsense, which I loved! I appreciated that she provided an unbiased approach, ensuring that I was fully aware of all possible outcomes of pregnancy and birth—not just the ones I wanted to hear.

Before taking this course, I was tense and scared. I didn’t know anyone who had a birth experience they weren’t traumatized by. Lliwen was the answer for me.

Thank you, Lliwen! With your guidance, we had an empowered birth! ❤️

I truly believe this is a course that all pregnant women should experience with their partner. If it wasn't for the work my husband and I did with Lliwen, our mindset and understanding around birth would have been one of fear, misinformation and simply going into birth blind which is the total opposite of how we should be feeling.

We instantly felt comfortable with Lliwen, she has a friendly and warm nature that just put us at ease and we were able to talk about and discuss everything.

Being based overseas we opted to do the course over 12 weeks, which is 1 hr per week (via zoom). I highly recommend this way so it doesn't become information overload. Lliwen has a great way of not overloading you so you are truly able to experience with the different tools (what works and doesn't work). I also appreciated the flexibility due to the time difference.

Lliwen, we loved our sessions with you. I never thought both my husband and I would feel so empowered and ready to birth our wee girl.

I don’t think words exist to describe how incredible Lliwen and the work she does is.
Our midwife handed us a pamphlet about a taster session and we figured we had nothing to lose. We loved the taster session and decided to go ahead with the empowered birth course because we thought the meditations and breathing work would be great.
It’s funny to say that now because this course was so much more than that! This was our fourth pregnancy (third to term) and we thought we had it pretty figured out. After the first session we were amazed by the depth of knowledge Lliwen had and how in one session she had already helped me feel so much more comfortable and at ease with the labour and birth to come.
I had two polar opposite births with one being quite traumatic and the other being quick and easy. However in both I wasn’t able to fully have control of the situation. Lliwen helped me lean into my power, trust myself and my body, and most importantly believe that I should be the one in control. She gave my husband amazing tips on how to be a birth partner and despite having done it twice before (and aced it!) she made him feel so much more at ease and confident.
The labour and birth were incredible and I have to say Lliwen’s voice in my head definitely helped me when crowning. After the birth I honestly felt like a superwoman. I was riding a high that I didn’t think was possible!
Postpartum has been tough with adjusting to three and I started to notice some signs of postpartum depression. My husband suggested I go back to what I was doing when pregnant and preparing for birth and reminded me ‘Lliwen did say these tools aren’t just for labour.’ It’s only been a week but my mental state is improving everyday.
Lliwen has been an absolute blessing to our lives and I will always and forever be eternally grateful.

Best investment you'll ever make!!! Lliwen's course will change the way you see birth and give you tools reusable in everyday life too.
This course will get you all the gear and knowledge you need to be ready for the birth but more importantly all what goes around it ( where you birth, who is around, what are your rights, what you can use) and help you be prepared to deal with whatever comes at you.
Thanks so much Lliwen, I had the birth I'd hope for!

A life changing decision to sign up for Lliwen’s hypnobirthing course. It made me prepare for birth in a calm manner, informing me of my choices and it ultimately made for a more relaxed approach when the time came to give birth. Lliwen is kind, funny, knowledgeable and will have your back throughout the pregnancy.
