 If you’ve experienced abortion and are carrying silent pain, we want you to know this: You are not alone. There is hope. There is healing. And there is a community waiting to walk this journey with you.

In this powerful episode of Mental Perk, Brandi and Karla sit down with Michelle Barber, Executive Director and compassionate advocate, to discuss the emotional aftermath of abortion—and the incredible transformation that can happen when we choose healing.

Michelle shares her own story, offers heartfelt encouragement, and invites you to a free weekend healing retreat designed to support women on the road to restoration and peace. Whether you’re ready to talk, need someone to understand, or want to take your next step toward freedom—this episode is for you.
