Episode #49: Since the Supreme Court overturned the reproductive rights protected by the Roe V. Wade decision, the news has been filled with talk about laws restricting access to reproductive health services. This upheaval is not just about state legislatures, federal laws, or religious beliefs…it's about people and their tender experiences. This episode features a collection of nuanced and highly personal stories about reproductive decisions and how these choices impact mental health. How each person makes meaning of their experience varies greatly, but what's common to all of the stories is that carrying a pregnancy to term and giving birth is not a minor incident. It is a major event in one's life: physically, hormonally, financially and often emotionally. Some of what you'll hear may be difficult; these stories may challenge your beliefs or values, but we urge you to listen and challenge yourself to hold the complexity, the diversity, and the common humanity in each tale. Our feature story is by writer, teacher and poet Patrice Vecchione. Joining me to listen, reflect on, and respond to these important reproductive health stories is Alissa Perrucci, PhD, the Counseling & Administrative Manager at the Women's Options Center at San Francisco General Hospital who has worked in abortion counseling for nearly two decades. Broadcast 12/4/22 & 12/12/22 Special thanks to Jeanne Baldzikowski for audio production, Lisa Herendeen for advance research and Leslie Nielsen and Patrice Vecchione for “In Your Voice” Coordination.

Patrice Vecchione was a New York City kid and a long-distance bicyclist who didn't really discover nature until she was 50 years old. From her home in California, she began to branch out and discovered the park land was close to where she lived. Her book reminds you, “Nature accepts us exactly as we are—bedazzled or bedraggled, lonely or lively, willful or wistful. Wander a little while, and wonder will take hold.” Earth Day is April 22. Listen to this show and get your heart, mind, and spirit to celebrate the earth by stepping into nature! Get your children outside, too, so their imaginations can soar with the winds and the clouds and the birds. Ahhh, what a beautiful world!
