Kaitlyn Joshua: How a Miscarriage Fueled...

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

Kaitlyn Joshua is a faith organizer and activist whose advocacy for reproductive freedom is rooted in one of the most painful experiences of her life. In this episode, Kaitlyn shares how what began as a planned pregnancy turned into a medical crisis—when she was turned away from the emergency room twice while miscarrying, left to suffer for months without care. This moment wasn’t just a pivot — it was a reckoning. As a woman of faith, Kaitlyn recognized that her experience was not an anomaly; it was the direct result of restrictive reproductive policies in a post-Roe America. Fueled by her personal trauma and deep commitment to justice, Kaitlyn has become a powerful national voice, co-founding Abortion in America, joining the Harris-Walz campaign trail, and being named one of Glamour’s Women of the Year.
