Abortion is one of the most stigmatized topics in society — and this conversation takes it head-on.

In this episode, we sit down with abortion advocate Sophie Nir to explore the realities of abortion rights, stigma, and advocacy. Together, we unpack:

  • How stigma and misinformation shape the abortion debate
  • Why shifting to “abortion positivity” changes the conversation
  • The role of partners and men in supporting reproductive rights
  • The global landscape of abortion vs. the unique challenges in the U.S.
  • How language, culture, and politics influence the way abortion is understood
  • Why abortion should be recognized as a social good, not a source of shame
  • We also share personal perspectives on identity, political beliefs, and the intersections of global conflicts — including Israel–Palestine — with conversations around justice, autonomy, and control of women’s bodies.

    It’s a raw, informative, and deeply personal discussion about reproductive rights, stigma, advocacy, and the urgent need for a cultural shift in how we talk about abortion.
