Christen Reighter shares her powerful story about CHOOSING to seek sterilization and the difficulty she experienced trying to use her autonomy in this decision.
“Women aren’t just supposed to have kids..they’re supposed to want to. Motherhood is just an extension of womanhood. Not the definition.”
It’s time to change the narrative of what a woman is SUPPOSED to do, and start accepting the things they WANT to do, without the judgment.” — Ashley via facebook

Hi Miss Reighter, I just saw your Ted Talk about your choice to live child free. Thank you so much for talking about this! I am a thirty year old woman, and I am trying to conceive for five years. Not able to get pregnant really effected me in a negative way; I felt such a failure as a woman and as a spouse. I stopped medical treatments one year ago, and I am trying to find peace with myself and regain my worthiness as a woman. Your talk really helped me. Again, thank you so much and keep up the good work! From Holland, with Love!”
