Shame thrives in secrecy. When an abortion is hidden or left unspoken, it doesn’t simply go away, it can quietly shape the way we see ourselves, leaving us feeling unworthy, disconnected from our bodies and sexuality, or allowing ourselves to be mistreated.
But healing is possible. Peace is possible. With grace, compassion, and honesty, we can begin to ask: What was this experience here to teach me? Can it bring me closer to myself?
In this heartfelt episode, Holly and Ellie Stiles share their own experiences with abortion and how those moments became gateways into awakening. Both raised in Catholicism, they speak to the deep conditioning, stigma, and pain they had to unravel, while learning to hold themselves tenderly, love themselves more fully, come home to their own lights and voices, and no longer abandon themselves.
They reflect on how they feel about their experiences now, honoring the teachings and the ways it has shaped their paths.
This conversation is a call for women to know they are not alone. It’s an invitation to give yourself compassion, to see the wisdom in your journey, and to remember that even in the hardest moments, there are gateways to your awakening. An opening to question, to discover what feels true for you, and to come home to yourself.
Together, we rise and stand for a woman’s right to choose.
