Today, Valeria welcomes Kelsey Kreppel, a preschool-teacher-turned-content-creator and entertainer, to chat all about her current pregnancy and the anticipation and fear that comes with being an expectant first-time mom. Kelsey shares her pregnancy experience, the challenges that come with it, and the joys, fears, and anticipation of her son’s upcoming arrival. Being a first-time-mom can be scary and lonely, but Valeria gives Kelsey her best tips on how to navigate this new season of life without losing your sense of self along the way. Valeria shares with Kelsey her honest and realistic advice on the “fourth trimester”, what to expect postpartum, how to handle being humbled as a mother, and not falling into doom traps of birth experiences and advice on the internet. Kelsey also shares the approach she and her husband, YouTuber Cody Ko, take when sharing their lives as influencers and the precautions and boundaries they’ll have to think about as new parents in the public eye. You can find Kelsey on: https://www.instagram.com/kelseykreppelCircle Time podcast https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZym84-cGUKAf1T2isIIXvwhttps://www.tiktok.com/@kelsey_kreppelValeria is on:https://www.instagram.com/valerialipovetsky/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWkDFq1pO7YNzifE3A4UsMA https://www.tiktok.com/@valeria.lipovetsky Not Alone PodcastWhat We Talked About:
