Delivering the Facts with Kayla: Abortion Misinformation, Emotional Rhetoric Vs Medical Reality
<p>Abortion is one of the most politically charged healthcare issues of our time, yet much of the public debate is driven by misinformation, fear, and emotionally charged rhetoric rather than medical reality.</p><p></p><p>In this episode, I sit down with Kayla, a midwife of more than a decade and the voice behind Delivering the Facts. After witnessing a surge of disinformation about abortion online, Kayla began using social media to unpack the facts, explain the statistics, and provide much-needed context around the realities of abortion care.</p><p></p><p>Together, we discuss what late-term abortions actually are, who needs them, and why the overwhelming majority occur in heartbreaking circumstances involving severe fetal anomalies or serious risks to the pregnant person’s health. Kayla explains what happens when families are denied access to appropriate medical care, including being forced to continue pregnancies where a baby is not compatible with life, and the implications of restricting options such as foeticide.</p><p></p><p>We also explore the politics surrounding MS-2 Step, the medication used for medical abortion in Australia. We discuss how it works, who uses it, when it is prescribed, and the barriers many Australians still face when trying to access abortion care.</p><p></p><p>This conversation contains discussion of pregnancy loss, fetal anomalies, abortion, and reproductive healthcare. Whether you are firmly decided on this issue or still forming your views, this episode aims to cut through the noise and provide evidence-based information about a topic that is too often misunderstood.</p><p></p><p>Kayla’s IG - @delivering.the.facts </p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/delivering.the.facts?igsh=cWsxYng5Z3IzNDR3" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/delivering.the.facts?igsh=cWsxYng5Z3IzNDR3</a></p><p></p><p>Arc Woman - Fact Checking the Australian Anti Choice Movement PDF File - <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tr.ee/qPAp0LZOVh" target="_blank">https://tr.ee/qPAp0LZOVh</a></p><p>If in Australia, send to your local MP</p><p></p><p>🎙️ Listen to Arc Woman Podcast Episode with Kayla and Georgia - <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-arc-woman-podcast/id1802086910?i=1000769771640" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-arc-woman-podcast/id1802086910?i=1000769771640</a></p><p></p><p>If you or someone you know may need access to a safe and legal abortion, reliable information and support are available.

Small Town - Big Wounds. The Work of Becoming Someone New with Jack Hellmrich
<p>What happens when two people who grew up in the same small rural town reunite after 18 years to chat about what life was really like in that tiny little coastal haven.</p><p></p><p>In Part One of this two-part conversation, I sit down with Jack Hellmrich, someone I grew up alongside who also experienced domestic violence, family instability, and the challenges of low socioeconomic living. We reflect on how our childhood experiences shaped our beliefs, behaviours, and sense of self, and the ways anger can become a survival strategy when pain goes unprocessed.</p><p></p><p>Jack shares his journey from carrying that anger through adolescence and into adulthood to discovering new pathways for healing through personal development work and a multitude of therapeutic approaches.</p><p></p><p>Jack has now stepped into a coaching role to support others on their own healing journeys. </p><p></p><p>Together, we share stories from our upbringing, discuss the lasting impact of childhood adversity, what it means to consciously rewrite the narratives we inherited. “Millennial cycle breakers” you could say. </p><p></p><p><b>This is Part One of a two-part conversation.</b> If you’ve ever wondered how early experiences shape who we become—and whether real change is possible—this episode is for you.</p><p></p><p><b>Crisis Support</b></p><p></p><ul><li><b>Lifeline Australia</b><ul><li>13 11 14 (24/7)</li><li>Lifeline Australia</li></ul></li><li><b>Suicide Call Back Service</b><ul><li><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="tel:1300%20659%20467" target="_blank"><b>1300 659 467</b></a> (24/7)</li><li>Suicide Call Back Service</li></ul></li><li><b>Beyond Blue</b><ul><li><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="tel:1300%2022%204636" target="_blank"><b>1300 22 4636</b></a></li><li>Beyond Blue</li></ul></li></ul><p></p><p><b>General Mental Health Support</b></p><p></p><ul><li><b>Head to Health</b><ul><li>Free information, resources, and service navigation.</li></ul></li><li><b>Black Dog Institute</b><ul><li>Evidence-based resources on depression, anxiety, trauma, and wellbeing.</li></ul></li></ul><p></p><ul><li><b>headspace</b><ul><li>Mental health support for young people aged 12–25.</li></ul></li></ul><p></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="tel:1800RESPECT" target="_blank"><b>1800RESPECT</b></a></p><p>Australia’s national domestic, family and sexual violence support service.
