Abortion advocate Sophie Nir joins us to unpack stigma, misinformation, and advocacy — from “abortion positivity” to global rights, men’s roles, and why abortion must be seen as a social good.

Abortion is one of the most stigmatized topics in society — and this conversation takes it head-on.

In this episode, we sit down with abortion advocate Sophie Nir to explore the realities of abortion rights, stigma, and advocacy. Together, we unpack:

• How stigma and misinformation shape the abortion debate
• Why shifting to “abortion positivity” changes the conversation
• The role of partners and men in supporting reproductive rights
• The global landscape of abortion vs. the unique challenges in the U.S.
• How language, culture, and politics influence the way abortion is understood
• Why abortion should be recognized as a social good, not a source of shame

We also share personal perspectives on identity, political beliefs, and the intersections of global conflicts — including Israel–Palestine — with conversations around justice, autonomy, and control of women’s bodies.

It’s a raw, informative, and deeply personal discussion about reproductive rights, stigma, advocacy, and the urgent need for a cultural shift in how we talk about abortion.
