*Today's episode is a rebroadcast of our Stages of Grief Series from May/June 2023*

It’s our LAST installment of the Stages of Grief Series! Today, we are talking about acceptance in regards to the last stage of grief. 

So, what does acceptance after our abortion truly mean? Does it mean that we're ok now? That we aren't grieving anymore? Does it mean we're ok with our abortion and think that it was a good thing? 

Grief is not something we "grow out of." Grief is always a part of us, but we learn to grow around it. We can get to the stage of acceptance in our grief without thinking that what we did was good or ok. We are going to talk more about that today, so get ready to dive in.

*This episode is a rebroadcast of our Stages of Grief Series from May/June 2023*

Have you ever done something wrong, or maybe not lived up to an expectation, and then tried to make it up to the person you wronged?

Maybe you said you’d get home at certain time and were late, so you told your spouse you would make it up to them somehow. 

Perhaps you missed out on hanging out with your child so promised them ice cream or a treat to make up for it. 

In each situation, you’re bargaining in an effort to keep the peace. 

While these actions are fairly trivial in comparison to what we’re talking about, they are still examples of what we do when we know we've done wrong. 

When it comes to our abortion decision, it’s common for us to feel like we need to pay a penance for what we've done. While this is just a small part of what the stage of bargaining looks like, it's important that we talk about it and move on from it. 

I pray that this episode helps you as you move through this stage in your grief.

*Today's episode is a rebroadcast of our Stages of Grief Series from May/June 2023*

Anger: it's one of the strongest emotions, yet it's also one that is caused by other emotions and feelings. When we experience anger, it is typically due to another raw emotion that we are feeling. 

When we think about anger in regards to abortion, we often struggle with anger due to grief, shame, guilt, and regret. We may feel angry with ourselves, with God, with the doctor, with our friends, with the father of the baby, or with others directly or indirectly involved in our decision. 

While anger is normal, it must not continue. We must do our best to heal and move on from our anger. If we do not, we are not able to fully and properly heal from our abortion experience. We have to let it go before bitterness and resentment set in. 

Tune in today to hear how you can combat your anger so that you can move closer towards acceptance.

Today, we are talking about denial. Often, denial is the first stage discussed when talking about the stages of grief because it is the one with the biggest roadblock. We cannot move forward if we continue in a state of denial about our grief. 

In regards to abortion, we can not properly grieve our decision and our child if we do not truly recognize the gravity of our choice. Today, we are going to talk about the 3 things we need to do in order to move on from our stage of denial so that we can properly grieve our decision to end the life of our unborn child.

*This episode is a rebroadcast of our Stages of Grief After Abortion Series from May/June 2023*

Forbidden Grief. That’s what women experience when they begin to grieve their abortions. When we go through a loss in life, we are surrounded my family and given support. When we have an abortion, though, we feel as though our grief must be kept a secret. We go through it without any support, living with an invisible scarlet letter A on our chest, wishing for our pain to go away and having no one to turn to. Over the next week, we are going to be talking about this forbidden grief and the stages that come with it. Without further ado, let’s dig in!

We already talked a bit about this topic in episode 111, but I felt it was important to dive just a bit deeper into the criminalization of abortion because of some recent client sessions. After all, it is an election year, and abortion is a huge issue. With states moving to criminalize abortion, it's natural to have some concern and fear as someone who has chosen this in the past.

Today, we're going to talk about what all of this entails and what that means for you as a woman who has had an abortion. I pray this blesses you!

Today, I'm going to share with you 3 easy steps that you can take TODAY to get on the path towards healing and wholeness after abortion.

I pray this blesses you!
