In this special episode, Dr. Goodwin is on the road, broadcasting from Amsterdam, the Netherlands. She's joined by Dutch physician and reproductive rights activist and pioneer, Dr. Rebecca Gomperts, founder of Women on Waves—an organization that took to the seas to provide women abortions and reproductive healthcare. They unpack victories and the horrors—including Dr. Gomperts' boat being seized, chained, and crew being held by gunpoint. They also unpack what comes next for abortion, including self-managed abortion and telehealth.
