About this episode
Dr. Catherine Wheeler, a former practitioner of second trimester abortions, shares her transformative journey toward becoming a pro-life advocate. She describes a pivotal moment when she became acutely aware of the moral implications of her actions, and how this led her to cease performing abortions. She shares about the cultural influences that shaped her views on feminism and reproductive rights before returning to the Christian faith later in life. Dr. Wheeler recounts her conversations with patients and peers on both sides of the abortion debate, aiming to introduce new perspectives compassionately. She also highlights her efforts in pro-life advocacy, while encouraging others to engage in compassionate, informed discourse.
