Episode 15: Society makes women feel guilty about having abortions. I have no guilt - with Anissa

I had the chance to interview my lovely friend Anissa for my
podcast. We met during a traineeship in the European Council and
now both live in Berlin and have evolved, like Anissa says in the
interview. I love discussing politics and all things feminism with
her. She also hosts a podcast called Homo Swipiens about how
digitalization changes the way we live and love. In this episode we
talk about sexual violence, rape, and abortions. Anissa shares her
abortion story with us, showing us that it does not always have to
be dramatic, traumatizing, and scandalous, and how healing can come
in its own time.   You can find more about Anissa

violence, rape, and abortions. Be resourced before listening to
this episode and take breaks whenever you need
them.  This episode was recorded on June 15th. Nine days
before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and thereby
reversing the right to an abortion and clearing the way for US
states to ban the procedure. You can never ban abortions; you can
only ban SAFE abortions. The people who will suffer the most and -
potentially die - are the ones not able to afford traveling to
other states or already living in precarious
situations.   On another note: a book I enjoyed reading
that can give a spiritual perspective on abortions (and
miscarriages) is “Spirit Babies – How to Communicate with the Child
You’re Meant to Have” by Walter Makichen.  #abortion
