It's my theory that one of the big reasons clinics have shut down - and will continue to shut down - is that former abortion workers have spoken out about their experiences in public and worked to testify against their former employers.

An important part of my story is that I didn't walk out of Planned Parenthood immediately after witnessing the ultrasound-guided abortion. It is made to appear that way in the film, 'Unplanned,' because they are trying to fit 10 years of my life into an hour-and-a-half-long movie.

Equal rights for women. I agree with that concept. But we will never be free, we will never obtain equality, until we stop letting ourselves become pawns of the abortion industry. Our freedom depends on our rejection of abortion.

Planned Parenthood doesn't care about women's health care needs; it cares about abortion.

We are all afflicted with our own spiritual blindness. That's what sin does to us, and we all sin. We would do better to look into our own hearts and deal with our own sin before we condemn the sins of others.

Fertility should be shared between a husband and wife.

I've heard pro-lifers yell at abortion clinic workers that they should 'Repent!' Repent of what? They don't see what they are doing as something that needs to be repented of. Why? Because they are blinded. Do you think yelling at them will remove that blindness? Not likely.

Natural Family Planning works and is as effective, and sometimes more effective, than the birth control methods out there.

Why do I leave the March for Life every year happier than when I came? Hope and gratefulness are the reasons. Gratefulness for the life we have and the life we've given and hope for the future, to live in a world where abortion becomes unthinkable.

If the church doesn't minister to sinners, then who will?

I wish I had a dollar for every pro-choicer who told me that abortion has to be accessible for poor women... as if being poor makes you an unfit mother.

We all sin. We all can change. We all can be reborn in Christ.

I try not to go down the 'what if' road very often. It isn't fruitful and just makes you feel crummy.

I live with very serious headaches, even though I am on daily medication.

The abortion industry and their workers are under unique pressure and constantly in the spotlight because abortion is so controversial, and people on both sides are considerably passionate. This isn't a typical nine-to-five job. It's on a whole other level of intensity.

I worked at Planned Parenthood for eight years, rising through the ranks from volunteer escort to clinic counselor to clinic director.

I joined Planned Parenthood because I wanted to help poor women with real health care needs.

Some images stick with you forever, images that you can't unsee.

Abortion is a severely traumatic and potentially dangerous procedure.

I know from personal experience just how critically important the work of LifeSite is - not just to me but the whole pro-life movement!
