Kelly and Lesley define and discuss the topic of autonomy. This was a huge rabbit hole! At first glance, folks will think immediately to birth rights, the right to have a baby or the right to not. But this goes quite vast. Hugs without consent as a child was something we both encountered but diving into this topic there’s so much more and learn. We’d love to hear what comes up for you in your unlearning and discovery. Go to our Instagram at 2broadsandabottleofwine Check out: www.mmiwusa.org and www.mmiwg-ffada.ca
