5 • Natalie Raymond : Never Wanting Children & Getting Your Tubes Tied (The Judy Chicago Series)

Big Birth Junkie

Natalie always knew that she never wanted to be a mom. Every year since she was a teenager she asked her doctors to have her tubes tied. Natalie and I explore the societal pressure placed on women to have a baby, the ticking of the biological clock and the clarity of knowing that motherhood is not a path she wants to take.

This is a special edition of Big Birth Junkie that coincides with the artwork of Judy Chicago's Birth Project Born Again Series at the Pasadena Museum and relates to her piece: Creation of the World
