Life Beyond Abortion
From Abortionist to Advocate
Join Melissa Ohden, abortion survivor and host of Life Beyond Abortion, as she sits down with Dr. Catherine Wheeler, a former abortionist turned pro-life advocate. In this powerful episode, Dr. Wheeler shares her journey—from performing abortions to a haunting realization of the baby’s humanity that ended her practice. She exposes the lies she once believed, the falsities that blinded her, and the healing that followed. Melissa and Catherine explore late-term abortion realities, like high failure rates leading to born-alive infants, and challenge a culture that hides the truth. Discover hope as Dr. Wheeler fights for women and babies with scientific truth. Learn more at AAPLOG.org from the American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs, where Catherine contributes. Share this episode to amplify these voices—because every story matters.
