During her 40 years as a nurse, Patrice D’Amato has seen a lot of things, but it was her years spent providing abortion care that had the biggest impact on her. She’s never thought of herself as an activist, but as the polarizing debate about abortion raged on, Patrice realized that the real problem is our perception. So she decided to do something about that.

This is the second installment of a three-episode run that will explore different aspects of motherhood on The Breakout. In this episode, Patrice tells us about the fascinating book she wrote to try and shift perspectives on abortion. Her book The View from the Clinic takes us inside the clinic to challenge what we think we know about the issue, show us who is actually getting abortions (spoiler: it's mostly women who are already mothers), and shine a light on what our beliefs about abortion are really built on.

The Breakout is hosted by people and change experts, Dr. Keri Ohlrich and Kelly Guenther. Keri and Kelly are founders of Abbracci Group, a results-driven coaching and consulting firm focused on getting the best out of people. Join them as they get advice and insights from change experts, and dive into the stories of people who have busted out of life’s stifling boxes and shifted their lives into bold new territory.
