In this episode of Can We Fkn Talk?, I sit down with the incredible Nita to dive into her powerful journey into Motherhood. Nita opens up about her experience of finding herself in an abusive relationship at 21 and facing the gut-wrenching decision to end a pregnancy - a choice that deeply influenced her path forward. Years later, she would find herself in a supportive, loving relationship, navigating the joys and challenges of Motherhood again but from an entirely new place.
