The Challenges of Being A Human Rights Activist with Jennifer Lahl

This week I invite Jennifer Lahl on the show, who is the Founder and President for the Center for Bioethics and Culture, based in San Francisco. She’s also a documentary producer, having created important films like Eggspoitation and Big Fertility. Today we discuss some of the health risks of egg harvesting and of being a surrogate, as well as some of the deeply concerning language in surrogacy contracts, and the challenges Jennifer has faced as she tries to make legislative changes to protect women. I also share some my experience of the backlash I received in putting out the three part surrogacy series. We also include some great resources at the end of where to learn more.
