Summary
Because discussions about abortion tend to be so polarized, it can be difficult to unpack your thoughts and feelings about the decision, even though more than 1/3 of Americans will have an abortion in their lifetime. This week, I’m joined by Amanda Kingsley, a Certified Life Coach, Doula and host of the Speaking Light Into Abortion podcast, to explore the prevailing thoughts many women have about their abortions - and how to let go of unnecessary pain and suffering around the decision.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Unfuck Your Brain. The only podcast that teaches you how to use psychology, feminism, |
| 0:14.0 | and coaching to rewire your brain and get what you want in life. And now here's your |
| 0:19.3 | host, Harvard Law School grad, feminist rock star, and master coach, Carla Lohanthile. |
| 0:26.3 | Hello, my chickens. I am so excited today. There's so much good stuff going on. So three |
| 0:35.1 | things I need to tell you. The first thing is that it was 60 degrees earlier this week. |
| 0:40.7 | And I feel like spring is actually going to come. I wasn't sure for a while. I think it's |
| 0:46.6 | coming. It is now snowing today. And I did not dress appropriately for the weather because |
| 0:53.3 | I'm in denial. And I feel like the first day at 60 degrees, that's an unbreakable contract |

| 1:03.9 | start dressing like it's spring. And I expect the universe to cooperate with me. And it doesn't, |
| 1:08.6 | which is so rude. So that's number one. But I'm also an amazing mood because, well, because my |

| 1:39.3 | on diversity and equity and inclusiveness, not only in my business, but this is something that I |
| 1:43.6 | am very passionate about for the life coaching industry at large, right? Rit large, which is, |
| 1:48.5 | you know, I love life coaches, but I wouldn't say that our industry always has the |
| 1:54.0 | most amazing reputation. So I'm really committed to raising the level of coaching in this industry. |
| 2:02.0 | You all know, like I teach it a very sophisticated level that most coaches don't teach at. I coach |
| 2:07.9 | at that level. I teach my clients to coach themselves at that level. We're not fucking around here. |
