What we discussed: How Samantha’s work inspired the Heavy Flow Podcast! Reframing all pregnancy outcomes as “pregnancy release” Supporting physical, spiritual and emotional healing after an abortion and why the approach should be the same regardless of how the pregnancy was released How the technocratic method of medical care differs from holistic care Harnessing the vital life force of our uterus and acknowledging the sacred yes Why body literacy and education are keys to a positive termination experience for patients and care providers The healing power of orgasm Connect with Samantha:Website
