On today's episode of Venus Rising, I sit down with the fearless advocate, Toni Bare.

In 2016 Toni agreed to be a gestational surrogate for a couple with hopes that she would make enough money to pay for her own fertility treatment. Toni’s experience as a surrogate mother was so horrific and harmful she has committed to publicly speaking out against surrogacy. Toni’s story is complex and painful, full of abuse, injustice, and personal trauma and I admire her strength as she shares it with me today.
