Welcome to the Both Lives Podcast – where we believe both women and their unborn children matter in every pregnancy. Through honest and compassionate conversations, we explore fertility, pregnancy, birth, parenting, and the big questions around abortion. Guests from medicine, law, frontline services, and theology bring fresh insight as we look past pro-life vs. pro-choice debates toward a more hopeful, human-centred story. At the heart of every episode is a belief in the God-given dignity of all life, and a desire to create a better future for women and children before and after birth.

    S2E4 - Healthcare for both lives – A conversation with two of the doctors involved

    This week, Dawn is joined by Dr Melody Redman and Dr Grace Petkovic to discuss Healthcare for Both Lives, a new initiative founded by healthcare professionals responding to a lack of support and representation for those committed to caring for both pregnant women and their pre-born children. They explore why the group was established and how it promotes compassionate, evidence-based care, supports like-minded professionals, and contributes to both public and professional conversations on these important issues. Find out more: https://www.healthcareforbothlives.org/ Dawn and Lisa also discuss conflicting media narratives and reflect on how a recent university speaking engagement revealed a generation ready and willing to say that both lives matter.

    S2E3 – From pro-choice to pro-both: A conversation with Alicia Edmund

    Alicia Edmund, head of public policy at the Evangelical Alliance, joins Dawn to share how she went from identifying as pro-choice during her late teens and early 20s to embracing a pro-both perspective through faith and discipleship. They also discuss bringing Christian conviction into political advocacy and lament the recent House of Lords vote on decriminalising abortion, and what it looks like for the church to lead the way in valuing both lives in pregnancy.

    Bonus episode: God Unborn – Nine months between the angel and the manger

    When God the Son became flesh, He developed in the womb and was born of a woman, like all babies are. Joining us in the fullness of our humanity from that point was intentional, so it must matter. Yet we don’t tend to think about those nine months before Jesus’ birth. With this God Unborn series, we are led to think about the circumstances and the people at the point at which the Word became flesh, and ask God to reveal to us what He planned that we’ve forgotten, or perhaps never noticed.

    S2E2 – How abortion law changed the culture of medicine – A conversation with Professor John Wyatt

    John Wyatt is an Emeritus Professor of Neonatal Paediatrics, Ethics & Perinatology at University College London and a senior researcher at the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion. A former consultant neonatologist, he spent over 25 years caring for critically ill newborns and researching the causes, treatment, and prevention of brain injury in infants. His clinical experience led to a deep interest in the ethical challenges surrounding the beginning and end of life. Now retired from frontline medicine, he focuses on the philosophical, ethical, and theological implications of advances in medical technology, artificial intelligence, and robotics, particularly in relation to the Christian faith.   Find out more about Professor Wyatt’s work: www.johnwyatt.com/ Matters of Life and Death Podcast: www.johnwyatt.com/podcast/ In this episode, Dawn and John Wyatt explore the origins of neonatology and reflect on how abortion law has shaped the culture of modern medicine. Dawn and Lisa also discuss the recent landmark vote in the House of Lords on abortion decriminalisation, consider comments made by Zara Larsson, and examine how the cultural conversation has shifted from celebrating access to abortion to celebrating the act of abortion.
