There’s a handful of phrases you will hear frequently at our house. “I love you,” of course, is one of them. “Lexi, off,” is another, thanks to our rather energetic dog. “I got it,” is another, compliments of the stage of development our five-year-old is in, which has...

“What’s the greatest lesson you’ve learned in your life?” Someone asked me this recently, and I’ll be honest: I had to pause and really think about it. I’ve lived what feels like many lives, in seemingly every corner of my life: my career, my knowledge about my life...

“Time. It goes by so fast. SO FAST.” I distinctly remember these words that my Grandma Ruby spoke often throughout my childhood and even early adulthood. Looking upon her head of snow-white hair, I always thought that she looked not only prestigious, but wise. After...

The pain of my birthmother’s abortion ends with me. The ripple effect of that forced abortion across our family ends in this generation of my half-sisters and me, instead of continuing its devastation throughout our children’s lives and thereafter. The story of...

Inspire Hope. This was the theme of a banquet for the Hope Pregnancy Center in Pontiac, Illinois, which I spoke at recently. Seems fitting, considering the name of their Pregnancy Center, right? But as I met the staff, the board, the clients, and the supporters of...

“When I heard you talking tonight about how often coercion and force happen in abortions, it really hit me. That was my experience. It was my mother.” I hear circumstances like these time and time again, but this time it was different. “My mom took my girlfriend for...
