  • Informative and heart breaking

    I’m so thankful I found this podcast. It demonstrates the importance and impact of autonomy - the choices you have (or don’t) and the long term effects of pregnancy. The topic of who “deserves” healthcare was eye opening. Please keep speaking up. More than ever women need access and bodily autonomy. Thank you for creating this podcast and wha lt you do.

  • A Miscarriage is not an Abortion

    It is insensitive to use the words “missed abortion” to talk about miscarriages. I know this is what they’re medically coded as but this is triggering for people who have lost wanted pregnancies. It’s disgusting how the hosts misuse language to make their listeners believe abortions and miscarriage are the same thing.

The Pregnancy Police State

Patients often face criminalization through the actions of their healthcare providers, who may report them to the authorities based on assumptions about their circumstances, particularly in cases of miscarriage, stillbirth, or substance use.

Q: What are the things in your day to day that give you hope and keep you going?
I have a phrase on my desk that says, pessimism of the intellect and optimism of the will.
