In today’s episode, we jump into the abortion discussion. While we do our best to avoid making a judgement call on whether or not abortion should be legal, we do discuss some of the gray areas that we feel are important to consider.
After listening to the podcast, we’d like to know what your thoughts are. If you can share them respectfully, please do so in the comments below.
NOTE:
This podcast is little more than a recording of a phone call between founders Stacy Litke and Signa Strom — so it’ll feel as if you’re listening in on an unscripted, casual conversation between friends, because that’s exactly what you’ll be doing. It is our hope that this format will feel friendly, relaxed, and inviting to you as the listener, and that it will illustrate how powerful a simple but focused conversation can be.
It is also our hope that you’ll be inspired to make time for conversations like these within your own life, and that in the process you will experience a deeper (re)connection with the people, community, and place that surround you, and a dawning awareness of how vital our conversations are to healing ourselves and our relationships…to healing our lives and communities…to healing the world around us.
Signa’s Voice: As you listen, you may wonder what is “wrong” with Signa’s voice. This is an example of a condition called Spasmodic Dysphonia, a spasming of the vocal folds which interrupts proper vocalization. Signa’s SD affects the adductor vocal muscles creating a breathy, wavery vocal quality. SD also can affect the abductor vocal muscles which creates more of a strangled, wavery vocal quality (think Robert Kennedy, Jr or Diane Rhem). For more information on SD, visit the National Spasmodic Dysphonia Association.
