We explore how recent court decisions could impact access, safety, and women’s rights across the United States.

    • The origins of the Louisiana lawsuit against the FDA over mail-order abortion drugs and ADF’s critical role.

    • How the Biden administration’s policies override state laws and the implications for pro-life states
    • The importance of in-person dispensing requirements for women’s and preborn children’s safety

  • Reaching Gen Z: The 24/7 Nurse Chat Line Saving the Preborn
    Apr 30 2026

    Most women, including Gen Z, don't realize how dangerous the abortion pill truly is physically and emotionally. Rachel Owen, CEO of Infinite Worth, reveals how a simple chat line is saving lives, exposing the dark side of online abortion access, and transforming care for women facing unplanned pregnancies.

    In this eye-opening episode, you'll discover how Infinite Worth’s 24/7 nurse helpline is providing immediate, personalized support that counters misinformation and coercion. Rachel shares powerful stories of women choosing life after ultrasound guidance, the rise of online abortion drugs, and the urgent need for relationship-based care in a digital age. We break down the shocking statistics — like 60% of abortions being coerced — and discuss how real-time, compassionate outreach is disrupting the abortion industry.

    You'll learn why this platform creates a crucial continuity of care, bringing trust and safety to vulnerable women. This episode also explores the rising toll of the abortion pill, the emotional aftermath for women, and how the pro-life movement can meet Gen Z where they are: on their phones, with love and truth.

  • Doctor, Heal Thyself: Restoring Truth in Pediatric Care, featuring Dr. Jill Simons
    Apr 16 2026

    In this episode, Dr. Christina Francis sits down with Dr. Jill Simons, pediatrician and Executive Director of the American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds), to explore the importance of life‑affirming, evidence‑based healthcare for children beyond the womb. Their conversation examines the growing influence of gender ideology in pediatric medicine and the urgent need to respond with biologically grounded care rooted in compassion and truth. Dr. Simons also shares insight into ACPeds’ Doctor, Heal Thyself campaign—an ambitious initiative aimed at supporting physicians and addressing the rapid adoption of irreversible medical interventions for children and adolescents experiencing sex‑identity distress. Together, they discuss the vital role physicians play in protecting children’s health and why a broader cultural shift toward integrity, courage, and authentic care is needed now more than ever.

    A special thanks to ACPeds for being MBEC 2026 Platinum Sponsors!
