121. Formation Over Transformation: Birth, Recovery and the Return to Self with Hilary Hoffman (Part 2)

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Hilary Hoffman, founder and CEO of Soto Method, for part two of their conversation. They dive into what recovery actually looks like when the birth story does not go as planned, and what it means to come back to yourself on the other side.

Hilary picks up right where she left off, sharing the physical and emotional weight of those early weeks in a way that is rare to hear. She is honest about the hard parts, the unexpected setbacks, and the moments that brought her to her lowest point.

She also gets into the eight weeks of walking and breathing that formed the foundation of her recovery, the 30-day eating plan that helped her feel like herself again at month five, and how a passage from Andre Agassi's memoir gave her a new way to think about identity after everything her body had been through. This episode is not about getting your body back. It is about forming someone new.
