Abortion, trolls and breast-checks I'm With Her

This week we talk about abortion, Izzy took the 60 second rant segment really seriously and made it into a sort of poem, it's cringing but will make you laugh and we get a confession from Cal.

This episode comes with a trigger warning as we appreciate abortion is an emotional topic for many people.  

This is not about whether abortion is right or wrong but we wanted to put the stories of people who have had an abortion at the forefront which is why we start with Cal sharing her own experience of having an abortion.  We discuss some of the pro-life core arguments and discuss how we feel about these, plus we talk through the procedures recommended for safe abortions in case anyone needs to know or curious to find out. There is a lot of misinformation out there at the moment and we want to make sure the right information is out there for people so they can make informed choices.

Thanks to Cal once again for her vulnerability and raw honest story telling. And thank you to all of you for your support xxx
