#52: Abortion As A Rite Of Passage - with Jasmine Alicia Carter

In this raw, deeply intimate and important episode, I sit down with menstrual artist, feminine embodiment mentor, and founder of Sacred Woman, Jasmine Alicia Carter, for a profound conversation that lives at the intersection of the womb, death, rebirth, grief, power and feminine initiation.

Both myself and Jasmine experienced conscious abortions within the last two years. This episode is a rare and necessary dialogue, one that dissolves taboo, unravels shame, and opens a doorway into the spiritual, emotional, energetic and physical dimensions of abortion as a rite of passage.

This is a conversation for any woman who has walked this path, loves someone who has, or desires to understand the deeper feminine mysteries that live within the threshold between life and death.

Together we dive into:

• The untold emotional, spiritual and psychic landscape of conscious abortion

• How abortion can initiate a descent into the dark feminine, shadow, and underworld

• The difference between cultural guilt and true inner knowing

• Listening to the body’s wisdom through pregnancy, grief, and choice

• How to navigate the polarity, projections, and judgments from family, culture, and community

• The mystical dimension of womb consciousness and feminine spiritual awakening

• Meeting death through the womb and returning to the mystery

• The role of ritual, prayer, blood offerings, and conscious completion

• How grief cycles through the womb over months and how to process it safely

• Why abortion is often the gateway that brings many women home to their womb for the first time

• Post-abortion care: nourishment, womb massage, steaming, sisterhood, ritual, and tending to the cervix

• How to relate to the spirit of the child with reverence, closure, and connection

• The importance of support, from partners, sisters, and bodyworkers, in healing the emotional and spiritual layers of the experience

• Abortion as an initiation into the maturity, depth, and power of the feminine

• How to reconnect with God, intuition, and personal truth through the process

• Why both Melissa and Jasmine see abortion, miscarriage, birth, and menstruation as part of the same feminine continuum
