The changing political winds around abortion have led so many women to keep their abortions secret, including both those who got illegal abortions before Roe v. Wade, and those who legal abortions afterwards, for reasons to do with shame and social expectations. But since the right to abortion is now in question in many places, those same women are now choosing to speak out — equating secrecy with silence, and openness with defiance. This episode tells intimate stories of women who spent years keeping this chapter in their lives secret — the toll of that secrecy on relationships and self-esteem — and what changed their minds. We meet: Wendy Sibbison, a retired human rights lawyer in Greenfield, Massachusetts, who had an illegal abortion in the 1960s and only spoke about it after joining the women's movement of the '70s. She had a second abortion years later, and approached it much differently. A 50-something woman named Rachel, who had abortions in the 1980s but, despite their legality, felt so ashamed she couldn't talk about it. Until the Dobbs decision turned her into an activist (though she still prefers to keep her last name out of it). And Smith College professor Carrie Baker, who is an expert on feminist and abortion history, including how secrecy has been weaponized by opponents of abortion and women's rights in general. The Secrets We Keep is written/produced/hosted by Karen Brown, edited by Sam Hudzik, with music by Katie Semro. Find out more at nepm.org/secrets.

Do you ever feel stagnant and unfulfilled, like you aren't using all the gifts and talents God has given you? There was a time when today's guest Carrie Baker felt the same way. With the all-encompassing tasks of a working mom, she felt too busy managing to her primary responsibilities to tune in with herself and develop the skills to cultivate more for God.   Sometimes, we shy away from using our God-given talents because we are believing the enemy's lies about us. When we get to the place of searching and seeking, God calls us back to Himself and to our purpose. We must resist, however, the temptation to falsely conflate sewing the seeds of talent with striving. God desires for us to sew what He has entrusted us with. So whatever season of life you are in, whether you have been entrusted with much or with little, say YES to maximizing all you have for God's glory.  At the end of the day, we all desire to hear the words, "Well done, my good and faithful servant," from our Heavenly Father at the end of this life. Read the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25:14-30.
