191: Abortion + Parents of Disabled Kids w/ Alyssa Nutile

No one expects to be here. But many of us are.In this episode, Alyssa Nutile and I open up a raw and rarely discussed topic: abortion after a prenatal diagnosis. We talk about how these decisions are shaped by love, by fear, by systemic failures, and by the weight of what it means to bring a child into the world when you know what they might face.We also explore what it means to carry both love and grief into that decision-making space and why so many parents are left feeling like there was never really a choice at all.It’s a heavy conversation. And it’s also a deeply human one. If you’ve been there, are there, or just want to understand this conversation better, this episode is for you. Links:Hear Alyssa’s other episodes: 187: Do You Miss Who You Were?
