Existence or Autonomy with Roe v Wade

ALEX
About this episode

In this episode sisters Alex and Astrid return from vacation to discuss the Roe v Wade overturn and what that means for society. Sisters raise some questions and logistics that were not considered. This includes health complications, the rising healthcare cost, the formula shortage, amount of children in foster care currently homeless and much more. It is a difficult time for women and families alike. The power of choice is slowly being removed and America is blurring the lines between religion and state each day.

Sisters are at a loss for words as to what to do next as it is highly dependent on the states. Do we want to go back in time when pro-lifers were blocking abortion clinic entrances? Do we want witness doctors being killed in cold blood because of their medical practices? Do we want absolve women of the power of choice for their healthcare needs? There is much at stake with the overturn of Roe v Wade and hopefully, the families who want to continue having choices on when and how to extend their families will find viable solutions during this unprecedented time.

Sisters are open to hearing of possible solutions.
