EP 100: Jana on My Body My Choice, Texas Abortion Law, Violence Against Women + Reproductive Rights
A SOLO // God placed on Jana's heart to use her platforms to speak about her experience with abortion, abusive relationship, sexual assault, miscarriage + the mental, emotional, physical trauma that comes with it. She shares her view on abortion being a hot button political issue of our time, she sugarcoats nothing; as the topic is currently all over social media/the news due to the abortion law that just took effect in the state of Texas. But this is also her testimony because God’s hand is not always immediately obvious in our lives, with trials we easily wonder “why did this happen?”. Jana realized that God was preparing her for such a time as this + He uses every circumstance for good. This topic is huge, controversial af, triggering, which is why Jana combines her own experience with stats, resources + all types of perspectives to keep the chat fluid, and flexible.
Jana also talks about..
- shame, guilt, trauma, and grief related to getting an abortion
- abusive relationships
- molar pregnancy + miscarriage
- her abortion clinic experience
- reproductive rights + abortion rates
- reversing roe + Texas abortion law
- Canada's abortion law stats + history
- how you can help support women's choice
- how God brought her out of this challenging season
