To be honest, I debated whether or not I should cover this topic because I know it’s polarizing and there are a lot of strong emotions involved. However, there is a lot of disinformation on this subject and, just like always, I want to be a source of factual, evidence-based information. Abortion is more common than you might think - chances are you know someone who has had one. I encourage you to listen to this entire episode regardless of where you stand on this issue.
