  • 261 | How Pro Life Truth Set Me Free From Abortion Shame

    “You shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” — John 8:32

    Truth can be hard—especially when it confronts our deepest wounds and regrets. But when it comes to abortion healing, facing truth is the very thing that leads to freedom. In this episode, Brittany unpacks how understanding pro-life truthtransformed her own shame into peace and helped her finally walk in the freedom Christ offers.

    You’ll discover how believing the lies of the world—like “it’s just a clump of cells” or “you’re doing what’s best for you”—keeps women trapped in guilt and confusion. And more importantly, you’ll learn how God’s truth brings clarity, forgiveness, and hope that healing is still possible.

    Through Scripture, history, and heartfelt reflection, Brittany shares the truths that set her free—and how they can do the same for you.

    If you’ve struggled to accept forgiveness or wrestled with abortion shame, this episode will help you trade lies for truth and guilt for grace. Healing begins with honesty—and the truth really does set you free.

  • 260 | What If I Regret My Abortion Years Later? Here’s How to Start Healing

    What if years—or even decades—have passed since your abortion, and only now are you feeling the weight of regret? Maybe you thought you’d moved on, but something recently stirred up emotions you didn’t expect. You’re not sure where to begin, and the pain feels too heavy to face after all this time.

    If that’s you, this episode will meet you right where you are. Brittany opens up about her own 10-year journey of avoiding her emotions and shares stories from women she’s coached who carried the secret of their abortion for 15, 20, even 30 years. She explains why it’s common to feel “fine” for a while—until life hits hard and the buried pain resurfaces. Most importantly, she reminds you that it’s never too late for healing with God.

    You’ll learn how to stop “putting new band-aids” over old wounds and finally start healing from the inside out. Whether it’s been months or decades since your abortion, God hasn’t given up on you—and this episode will show you how to take your first step back toward Him.

    • 259 | From Abortion to Abundant Life: How God Redeemed My Story | Special Guest, Deborah Brill

      In this deeply moving episode, Brittany sits down with Deborah, a woman whose story of pain, redemption, and freedom powerfully reveals the heart of God’s mercy. From growing up in foster care to navigating broken relationships, motherhood, and a painful abortion at age 19, Deborah’s journey captures the real struggles many Christian women face when trying to reconcile faith and regret.

      Deborah opens up about the moment she heard a still, small voice urging her to leave the abortion clinic—a voice she later recognized as the Holy Spirit—and how that experience became a turning point in her walk with God. Though she carried guilt for years, Deborah shares how she finally encountered true forgiveness through Christ and how attending the Forgiven and Set Free Retreat helped her release the burden of shame she’d been carrying for decades.

      Through tears, laughter, and truth, this episode reminds listeners that healing after abortion is not only possible—it’s promised to those who come to Jesus.

      Deborah’s story is a testimony that will inspire women everywhere to bring their pain into the light and discover freedom through Christ.

    • 258 | Healing From Post Abortion Emotions When You're Still in Church Every Sunday

      Do you ever walk into church feeling like everyone can see your guilt? Like you don’t belong there because of your past? Maybe you sit in worship holding back tears, afraid that if you let them fall, everyone will know what you’ve done. If you’ve ever felt that tension — loving church but dreading the emotions it brings up — this episode is for you.

      In this heartfelt conversation, Brittany shares her own experience of what it was like to attend church after her abortion — when every sermon and worship song seemed to stir emotions she had worked so hard to bury. She opens up about the fear of being “found out,” the discomfort of feeling exposed, and how she eventually realized those emotions weren’t something to hide… they were part of her healing.

      You’ll hear how God used the church — not as a place of shame, but as a hospital for her heart. Through Scripture and story, Brittany reminds listeners that when emotions rise in church, it’s not punishment — it’s the Holy Spirit working within you.

      In this episode, you’ll learn:

      • Why emotional reactions in church often signal healing, not condemnation

      • How to see church as a safe space for your grief and growth

      • Three powerful scriptures to help you embrace your emotions and rest in God’s grace

        Your tears don’t disqualify you — they’re evidence that God is mending what’s been hurt. Church is for you, friend. It’s where God meets you in the middle of your mess and leads you toward peace.

      • 257 | From Pro-Choice to Pro-Life: Why I Changed My Mind on Abortion | Special Guest, Marianne

        In this deeply personal and thought-provoking episode, Brittany sits down with Marianne, an adoptee and animal rescuer from North Carolina, to explore her journey through identity, faith, and the complex emotions surrounding abortion.

        Marianne opens up about her life as an adoptee raised in a conservative Christian home, the pain of losing her adoptive mother at a young age, and the spiral of grief that followed. Through honest reflection, she shares how her struggles with belonging and worth led her to question everything—including her views on abortion and her faith in God.

        What began as a story of confusion and anger becomes one of redemption and awakening. Marianne describes how personal research and exposure to the realities of abortion shifted her perspective once again—this time toward compassion, truth, and a renewed desire to protect life through empathy and education.

        Together, Brittany and Marianne discuss the importance of informed consent, transparency, and grace in conversations about abortion. They remind listeners that behind every opinion or belief lies a story—often marked by pain, loss, and the longing to be understood.

        If you’ve ever wrestled with your stance on abortion or struggled to reconcile your beliefs with your experiences, this episode offers a rare, grace-filled perspective that invites you to listen with both truth and tenderness.

        In this episode, you’ll hear:

        • Marianne’s journey as an adoptee navigating grief and identity after her mother’s death

        • How pain and loss shaped her initial shift from pro-life to pro-choice

        • The turning point that brought her back to faith and renewed compassion for women and the unborn

        • Why transparency and informed consent matter in abortion discussions

        • How sharing our stories can bring healing—and even lead others to Christ

        • 256 | Late-Term Abortion: Hard Questions, Honest Answers From a Christian Lens

          This is a hard topic—and one we don’t talk about enough. While most abortions happen in the first trimester, I know there are women listening who are carrying the heavy pain of a late-term abortion. In today’s episode, we’re diving into this tender subject with compassion and biblical truth. Whether you’ve personally walked through this, or you simply want to better understand and support someone who has, this conversation will help you approach the topic through a Christian lens—where grace, truth, and healing meet.

           

          In this episode, Brittany shares:

          Why we can’t keep avoiding the topic of late-term abortion, even if it’s rare.
          What the statistics really mean—and why “only 1%” still matters deeply.
          The most common reasons women choose abortion later in pregnancy, and how fear and grief often drive those choices.
          How to walk with women through healing after a late-term abortion—with compassion, truth, and the love of Christ.
          Why your story is not too much for God to redeem.

           

          If you’re healing from a late-term abortion:

          You are not alone. Jesus sees the pain you’ve carried. He knows the thoughts that torment you at night and the guilt that whispers you’re too far gone. Those are lies from the enemy—and they hold no power over you. Healing is still possible. Forgiveness is available. Freedom is yours in Christ.

           

          Your story isn’t over. God’s grace is big enough for this too.

          Friend, I’ve been there too. I know how it feels to stare at those two pink lines, praying it’s a mistake, wishing life could go back to what it was five minutes before that test. But I also know there’s another way—a way to find peace, even right here in the middle of your fear.

          • 253 | From Silence to Healing After Abortion | Special Guest, Katie Beck

            Have you ever felt like you had to keep your abortion a secret—carrying the weight of shame and regret in silence? You’re not alone. In this episode, Katie opens up about her personal journey of walking through abortion, the pain that followed, and how God led her into a place of true healing and freedom.

            Katie shares what it was like to make her abortion decision in crisis, the emotional aftermath she carried for years, and how she tried to cope through perfectionism, alcohol, and fitness. But her story doesn’t end in brokenness. Through the birth of her son, the support of a post-abortion Bible study, and the grace of God, Katie found peace and the courage to share her story publicly.

            Together, we talk about:

            • What it’s like to live in silence after abortion—and why breaking that silence matters

            • How community, faith, and Scripture brought healing to Katie’s heart

            • The role of the church in responding with compassion instead of judgment

            • How God can take our deepest pain and turn it into purpose

              Katie’s testimony is a powerful reminder that no matter your past, Jesus offers redemption and hope. If you’ve been struggling with abortion regret, longing for healing, or wondering if God could still use you, this conversation will encourage you to take the next step toward freedom.

            • 252 | Why the Pro-Life Movement Needs Post-Abortive Voices Like Yours

              Have you ever felt the nudge to share your abortion story, but fear keeps holding you back? Maybe you’ve wondered if the pro-life movement would reject you because of your past. Friend, nothing could be further from the truth. The reality is this: your voice matters deeply—and now, more than ever, the movement needs it.

              In today’s episode, I share my recent experience speaking at the opening ceremony of 40 Days for Life right outside an abortion clinic in my community. God asked me to step into a place of obedience, not only to encourage sidewalk advocates but also to minister to the very people walking into the clinic. It wasn’t easy, and fear tried to silence me—especially after the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk, which reminded me just how real the spiritual battle in this world truly is. But God’s Word reminded me that as believers, we’re not called to retreat—we’re called to storm the gates of hell, because they will not prevail.

              You’ll hear the behind-the-scenes of what it was like to say “yes” to sharing my story, the spiritual warfare that surrounded the event, and the unexpected ripple effects that happened afterward—even within my own church. Then, I’ll walk you through three powerful reasons why your post-abortive voice is absolutely needed in the pro-life movement. 

              If you’ve ever thought, “I want to share my story, but I don’t know how,” or “I’m not ready yet,” I pray this episode encourages you to bring that hesitation to the Lord. Sharing your story may look different for each of us—public speaking, one-on-one conversations, or quiet obedience in your community—but if God is prompting you, He will equip you.

              You are not disqualified. You are called. And your voice can be the very thing God uses to change lives.
