LFPWLI: The Impacts of an Unwanted Abortion and Overcoming Shame (part 1) with Brandi
In the first of a two-part series, Mathew, Dr. Frank, and Brandi discuss her journey of finding purpose and meaning after a life-altering experience. At 18, Brandi found herself pregnant and pressured to terminate the pregnancy. Having an abortion ended up being a choice she deeply regretted and felt a great deal of shame about for years to come. Despite her struggles, Brandi put on a brave face and lived her life as if everything was alright until a catastrophic car accident changed everything.
Brandi shares her story for anyone who may be struggling with feelings of shame after having an abortion and wants them to know that they can find forgiveness, acceptance, and a renewed sense of purpose in life.
In the second episode, Brandi tells us about her struggles with fertility and what it's like not to be raising two little boys.
“Adoption and abortion are such similarly spelled words that are so much different.”
