An Unplanned Pregnancy

"Get an abortion" was not on her college bucket list. She never thought she would have to call her parents and say, "I'm pregnant." Our guest opens up about her experience getting an abortion her senior year of college. She shares everything from moment she found out, to the aftermath and trauma she's dealt with as a result. We learn how her friends and family helped her get through it, and we hear about what was going through her mind as she made important decisions including not telling the guy she had been sleeping with that she was pregnant. Whether or not this has or will happen to you or someone you know, we encourage you to listen and learn with an open mind and an open heart.
