Abortion is popular, and common. So why are people afraid to talk about it? How much more might you understand about abortion access in the U.S. if talking about it wasn’t taboo? On ACCESS, our goal is to answer all the questions you might have been afraid to ask, dedicating every single episode to abortion. There are no pundits here, only experts—including real people who’ve had abortions.

ACCESS: A Podcast About Abortion - From Ritually: An Abortion Journey

From Ritually: An Abortion Journey

ACCESS: A Podcast About Abortion

play

09/05/23 • 42 min

Today we're sharing an episode with you from our friends at Ritually, a Brazen Media podcast.

Last year Nelufar had an abortion. The decision to terminate her pregnancy wasn’t difficult, but the process was. Though studies show abortion pills are safe and around 95-99% effective, in Nelufar’s case, they didn’t work. Shaken by her experiences seeking what should have been routine healthcare, Nelufar turns to full-spectrum doula Sara Bakr for rituals to help her heal from the trauma of medical gaslighting. At a farm and retreat center in the English countryside, Sara and the community who live and work there support Nelufar to process and move on from the experience.

If you're pregnant and want to talk with someone about your options, you can call the All-Options Talkline 1-888-493-0092 in the US and Canada, or the British Pregnancy Advisory Service at 03457 30 40 30. For more resources and a confidential talkline in the UK, check out abortiontalk.com/talk.
