Choosing Abortion as a Mother
Manage episode 426188820 series 3545790
Welcome to the Her On Top Podcast, Season 2, Episode 2! Kayla sheds light on the insanity our world is currently in right now when it comes to access to abortion and women's health care. With the 2 year anniversary since Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court, Kayla tells her own personal story of seeking and having an abortion to help other mothers seeking abortion or women who just simply do not want to become mothers feel normal and justified in their right to the decision that is best for them. Kayla provides the statistic that 6 out 10 women who seek abortions already have at least one child and half of those women have at least two children. The majority of women seeking abortion are mothers and yet we never hear their stories. Here is one story to give women a sense of community and solidarity. Kayla wants to make her voice known and not shy away from this topic just because our country is trying to silence women's voices and experiences. This is an important election year and our voices and stories can make a difference.

The Abortion Project no longer has a website but here is a podcast episode they were on.
Here is also an article about the pictures they took and descriptions of what happens in a medical abortion. Do note these photos are graphic so be gentle with yourself on what you are comfortable with.
