editor's note
The culmination of the work that I have been doing in the dating & relationship space for almost 2 years has manifested itself in this issue of Platinum Magazine. The cover story of “Black Matchmakers & Dating Coaches Emerging From the Shadows” is confirmation of that!
Connecting men and women together for healthy, long term relationships is what so many of us are all about. So, I am honored to present and spotlight several professional black matchmakers and dating coaches in this issue. It's all about being intentional in finding and maintaining a healthy relationship, and it is dating coaches, matchmakers, and relationship coaches that can help you get there.
Pursuing your goals and passions in your career, business and your love life are not for the weak, but ultimately build character and provide you with clarity to determine what you truly want and desire. There will be moments when you won’t be able to contain your excitement and will be full of peace. Times of frustration and uncertainty Yet, each of these moments is a confirmation that you are where you are supposed to be on your journey.
Sometimes you don’t know where you are going on your journey, whom you will meet, the opportunities that arise, the mistakes made, and the lessons learned along the way.
Tamika Michelle Johnson “The Matchmaking Attorney”
I’m both elated and thankful for the contributors and features that will be nothing short of a blessing to others
But rest assured, it’s not all for naught. This applies in both your personal and professional life.

Another essential closet tip is the dry clean method. The dry clean method is a way for you to wear everything that you own. If you’re not wearing it, resell it, donate it, or throw it away, but make sure you purge it from your closet You can focus on the spring summer side of your closet first When you finish wearing something, instead of putting the things back into the rack, you want to put things that you’ve already worn to the back. After I wear something, when I hang it up, I put it on the back of the rack, and I do that every time I wear something. That’s the beauty of the dry clean method. It forces you to wear everything that you own. If you can’t figure out how to wear or style it, you should get rid of it or figure out how to style it. That way you can be certain that you’re wearing all the pieces in your wardrobe.
Statistics show that people only wear 20% of their wardrobe because they’re wearing the same 5 to 15 outfits over and over. They’re not wearing the other 80%. The best way to wear everything in your wardrobe is the dry clean method. Wear an outfit and move on to the next. The dry clean method should be implemented with every section of your closet. Ready to tackle your closet clutter? Whether you’re looking to redesign your closet on a budget or building a new walk-in wardrobe, let these closet organization tips help optimize every square inch you have available

My first tip in the closet, of course, outside of cleaning, organizing, and purging, is color coordinate and season coordinate. It’s really important that you separate your wardrobe, that way you don’t have to deal with the whole closet at one time, but you deal with it per season I like to organize closets according to spring, summer, fall, and winter. That way you only focus on one half of your closet half the year, the other half for the second half.
Are you confident in the image you are projecting? Does your wardrobe match your executive presence and have you showing up as capable, competent and professional?
The closet is the foundation of your wardrobe. It’s where you go to get dressed. You can’t get dressed out of a mess. I am going to give you all my top closet tips to get you ready for the new season. The fall is coming, and I want you to make sure your closet is ready so you can get dressed and be your best self.

I quickly learned that radio, in that format, was not for me I was required to be in a quiet place, at the same time each week to broadcast the show. My lifestyle really did not lend itself to that schedule long term. During the year I was broadcasting the show, I started researching podcasting. It was PERFECT! I could record episodes anytime, anywhere, during the day, in the middle of the night while it is quiet, as well as batch record multiple episodes to have in queue.
It was a decision. I could have very easily stayed in bed the rest of my life with the covers pulled over my head, but that would not honor God, or Chantal

THE THE POWER POWER OF OF PODCASTING PODCASTING
October 31, 2019, my 22-year-old daughter was killed in a car accident The light bulb moment for me was when the Lord gave me the assignment to support other mothers through their grief journey, especially those who do not know Him and to give them the space to share whatever is on their hearts, as so often society attempts to marginalize and invalidate our pain He told me to continue to use my voice through this medium.

In 2014, I was laid off from my job. I must say that I was not all that surprised or upset, since there were numerous layoffs, and I was the last one hired in my department. They sent me off with a big, fat severance check, and I wondered what my next step in life would be.
My love and passion for seeing successful marriages and the fact that I 'hate' divorce fueled my fire to do what I knew God called me to do. That calling was not only to help eradicate divorce, but it was a bigger mandate. My husband and I are called to impact the world in a bigger way, by helping couples, but also by letting the world know that marriage is not a lost cause.
I started the process of what is now my full time entrepreneurial journey of helping couples. But the vision is bigger than that. The vision is to impact the world and how they view marriage. We want the world to know that there are healthy,

She reminded me of what I always talked about and got excited about. She told me that this was my destiny and my dream. She happened to be a Pastor and a Life Coach. That day, I hired her as my Business Coach and she helped me visualize and manifest my dream.

BUSINESS CHALLENGES
The most challenging part of my business has been working alone most of the time, especially during the pandemic. I am a very social, outgoing person. I get my energy from people sometimes. I miss being around people working towards the same goals, performance outcomes, and purpose.
3. Make Time For Them. Communication and date nights are profound keys in any relationship. Learn to allow your mate to trust your heart. Learn to be a great listening ear for them Let them see that they are a priority by spending quality time with them.
The other challenging part has been having a great idea or vision and not always knowing the right way to make it manifest, prosper, or make a difference. I take my work seriously and I only want to implement something if it's a 'God' idea and not just a 'good' idea. I want to see impact.

The best thing about my business is that I get to see transformation take place in couples' lives. I get to see the light come back into a wife's eyes or a husband feel a great burden released from his shoulders. I get to see a broken relationship turn into a beautiful and loving union.

And every day, I see couples moving in the right direction.

At the end of the day, Bravo capitalizes on drama that's their job, and they have done extraordinarily well in creating some of the biggest names in reality TV and I respect that. Each cast member on the show has undoubtedly been a part of the catalyst in black singles embracing matchmaking in their own lives!
When I first heard about and saw the trailer for Bravo’s "Love Match Atlanta," my first response was, “This is great! Matchmaking for black professionals is finally being highlighted!” But immediately thereafter, my thought was, “I just hope the drama of the show doesn’t overshadow the true VALUE of black matchmaking.”
BlackMatchmakersEmerging From the Shadows
It's important to note though, that despite black matchmaking being a relatively new concept within our community, matchmaking has been around for centuries. Additionally, Dating Coaches have also become increasingly popular over the years. If you are single, then you know that it is hard out here on these dating streets. I repeatedly tell clients and audiences that to be successful in dating and relationships, it is vital that you INVEST in your personal life to the same degree that you have in your education, career, business, 401k, property, etc.

As the CEO of Platinum Connections Matchmaking, I recognize the value of coaching and matchmaking for clients. The Global Love Institute FKA the Matchmaking Institute is one of the most prominent organizations that certifies both matchmakers and coaches and is a wonderful community of both those industry professionals.
Now, matchmaking may seem like the answer if you find it challenging to meet compatible partners. However, if you’ve been unsuccessful in relationships, then you need to work with a Dating Coach as well. It doesn’t matter how many swipes you make, matches you’ve made, or blind dates that you go on, if you don’t transform the way that you approach dating and relationships, then you will continue to have unsuccessful experiences.
Within the matchmaking community, I’ve been fortunate enough to meet several incredible Matchmakers and Dating Coaches of all races who have been in this industry for years. So, if you are single and frustrated with subpar dating options AND you are truly ready for a better dating experience overall, then check out these relationship experts and professionals to get you closer to your “Happily Ever After” today!

South Carolina Matchmakers Experience 25 Years Occupation
One thing I have learned in my 25 years of doing this is, that no matter what someone has gone through, when it comes to relationships and love, if they are reaching out to us, their desire to find a lasting relationship outweighs any fears they might have.
I started in the industry in 1998 after completing my degree in clinical psychology at the University of Houston. I had always been a shameless fan of all things happily ever after, and the belief that love and the right relationship is the best thing you can add to your life. So, being a matchmaker just felt right to me. My dream was to be a professor and teach but after 2 years in the industry, I realized that I was teaching, just a different subject. I was actually showing people how to prioritize something a lot of people take for granted their love life.

Why did you decide to become a Matchmaker & Dating Coach?
Why hire a matchmaker? Because we live in a time where we outsource everything. For many people, going to a professional who is dedicated to helping them find a lasting connection over a mainstream dating app, has everything to do with a personal touch humanizing the experience of making connections and the added benefit of varying perspectives of a person that not only has the education, expertise, and knowledge but also has a successful track record at bringing people together.
Be open to a different way. Sometimes people are so fixated on this idea or dream of what it is supposed to be or how the right person is supposed to show up in their life, that they have tunnel vision and they are not receptive to anything else or another way. Be open to nonconventional avenues and people that might not be your typical type. My advice would be to keep an open heart & mind.

ABOUT JENNIFER :
"Put your heart into everything you do and watch your dreams happen."
Jennifer's 25 years as a matchmaker highlight the key factor to attracting the right person: emotional and mental readiness. This is one of her specialties. Extending oneself to meet a variety of new people is a portion of the process, but it is not the primary factor. Many people desire a good relationship but have not worked through the challenges that sabotage their intimate relationships, and those areas are the focus of her coaching sessions.
As a professional certified matchmaker, dating coach, and relationship practitioner, Jennifer J. Hayes understands the challenges facing men and women who are seeking the right person to date, commit to and eventually marry. Jennifer teaches you how to prepare for love and how to break free from the barriers that block the desired goal of a lasting relationship.

Matchmaker & Dating Coach
My coaching clients invest in having the support of someone who helps them go deeper into why they have not found their ideal partners, or why they may not have attracted healthy relationships in the past. Many are looking to transform their mindsets, look deeper into what their true core values are, and gain a deeper understanding of how these play a role in attracting the right partners.
I believe a single person who is serious about finding a quality partner should invest in a matchmaker or relationship/dating coach to help guide them through the process rather than spending lots of time on dating apps. My matchmaking clients have shared that they either have limited time or they are burned out from dating apps.

Why did you decide to become a Matchmaker & Dating Coach?
Back in the 90’s, I set my best friend up with a girl that I had a crush on. Even though I liked this girl, I knew they would be a better match. The satisfaction I felt in helping two people find love and happiness in each other has guided me to this career and keeps me going every day. It never gets old that satisfaction. That feeling that I’ve made a difference in people's lives.

Matchmakers, like myself, aim to bring simplicity back to dating. To filter through the noise and present you with only good prospects for you based on shared personality traits and life goals.

The most important piece of advice is to stay open to the process. It can be so easy to get discouraged when relationships don’t work out, but truthfully, if you’re seeking a forever partner, only one will succeed for the rest of your life. Trust that the relationships that don’t work out aren’t the ones for you and that your true soul mate is still out there. But you have to keep an open heart and an open mind and keep looking. Don’t let the setbacks close you off to the possibilities of true love that are still out there for you.

Love yourself first and get in touch with your emotions! Before you enter a relationship, one of the first things to do is know how to confront the negative thoughts inside your head that are preventing you from living a happier life. Use this “single” space as an opportunity to understand your mind, gain an unbreakable sense of self confidence, and anything else that could help you to improve
I believe in love! Knowing that you are the one responsible for bringing two people together and being a part of their journey is not only exciting but rewarding as well. I chose to switch gears, and step away from my 10 year career in Higher Education, to direct my passion towards a career that enhances the lives of others.
Finding a date on your own requires traveling to venues, and sometimes other states, to meet people or spending time on dating apps constantly swiping left or right. With many of the apps, you must wade through hundreds of potentially terrible matches before you discover one possible match! When hiring a matchmaker, the screening, and vetting is done for you, and the quality is much more critical to matchmakers than the quantity.

If you're single, get out there! Go to singles events, join a singles database, try paying for a dating app while vetting correctly you never know who you could meet. Most importantly have FUN and trust the process! Manifest the type of love life you want and make it happen. Be proud of your growth and be honest about your wants and needs. Date with intention.

Self development is sometimes called personal development. It consists of different habits and
Their words and stories encourage introspection and help people achieve specific goals. They also instigate consistent effort through focus, accountability, and real world proof of efficacy.
How can mere words have such an incredible impact on a person’s life? What are the benefits of listening to motivating stories, and are your expectations realistic? Here is what you need to know.
Expanding your horizons is never a bad thing. Broadened perspectives and deepened understandings can help you realize dreams and achieve your aspirations. Many motivational speakers focus on teaching new skills instead of directly solving problems. They use thought experiments to help people reach conclusions independently
www.PlatinumMagazine.online
How Motivational Speaking Enhances Self Development
Motivational speakers can use their unique experiences to help put things into perspective.
Self development starts with the desire to change. It requires dedication and discipline to transform personality traits, habits, and behaviors. However, self development also takes plenty of time and lots of motivation.
behaviors to increase or enhance your capabilities. Many people pursue developmental activities to build wealth, boost employment, or improve their quality of life
Developing oneself usually depends on how motivated you are. Life is full of ups and downs, but genuinely motivated individuals can progress despite the setbacks. The self-development process ensures a positive or productive response in most situations. Well developed people cope with stress better than those who don’t work on themselves.
Deciding to work on self development should be priority number one, especially if you have specific goals. The more you practice skills and witness achievements, the more confidence you’ll have for future endeavors. The benefits are why motivational speaking is such an essential element to success.
Becoming more aware of your surroundings through self development can change many aspects of your life. Challenging situations are the reason why listening to a motivational speaker helps. Influencers see the problem clearly without an emotional lens, providing a fresh perspective and proven strategies for overcoming stress.
Self development is crucial because it gives you time to process information and determine an appropriate response. Activities such as reading, meditating, and working on hobbies can double as stress relief. Developing yourself can look like many things, including personal pampering and uninterrupted “ me time.”
Self development helps you cultivate the best parts of your personality. It can also flip some flaws in your favor. The process uses tailored practices to uncover hidden abilities and improve known talents. It might even reveal strengths and weaknesses for closer consideration.
Self development isn’t all fun and games as some of the outcomes are downright discouraging. Not everyone will support your new expectations, ideas, and boundaries. You must determine what’s important, then create a standard you won’t break. Motivational speakers can’t solve all your problems but can help you choose the best solutions They also don’t guarantee success or promise positive results. Many people who work on self development face adverse responses and unexpected turmoil. Some onlookers can’t stand seeing you happy, healthy, or whole.
DID YOU KNOW: Many Fortune 500 CEOs follow motivational speakers to help manage workplace challenges.
Part of self-development is improving confidence through practical exercises and mindfulness. You must accept your shortcomings while nurturing your talents. Define your needs, choose your goals, and then predict the impact. You can monitor your progress to see how much you’ve grown and elevate your self-esteem before the next obstacle.
How Motivational Speakers Can Help with SelfDevelopment

Confronting your shortcomings and improving on them can revolutionize your life. Experience tremendous growth while enhancing your skills and discovering new abilities. Then keep yourself on track with mantras and affirmations from a motivational speaker.
Witnessing self development is particularly challenging for manipulative individuals. Most manipulators dislike when their target becomes more self-aware and confident. The changes in habits, behaviors, goals, and boundaries can lead to disputes, jealousy, and resentment

#1. Even Small Tasks Require Motivation
#2. We All Need a Change in Perspective Sometimes
Self development isn’t always easy. It takes practice, and you will likely never be perfect. However, you can still benefit from motivational speeches in several ways
Motivating conversation can transform the way you look at a situation or problem. It can also help you remove negative self talk or unproductive thought patterns that prevent success. Change how you see the world and create a new dynamic in your personal life. Or boost your career with better intuition. Discuss topics with more compassion and empathy when you work on self development Use motivational speakers to learn new ways of doing things. Then perceive the hurdles as lessons and challenges instead of loss and roadblocks.
Motivational speeches aren’t just for helping you accomplish enormous feats. You’ll need inspiration throughout each phase of success. Even the smaller milestones require fuel to reach.
Motivational speakers focus on guiding the listener to a tailored conclusion. They only offer opinions and facts, never judgment or condemnation. Unlike counselors and loved ones, motivators and influencers have no stake in the game. Their pure objective is to share information and inspire others.
The motivation to move takes energy, and energy requires purpose. Even seemingly insignificant tasks can be challenging to complete when you lack enthusiasm. Massive goals become even more difficult if you can’t fulfill the tiny

Complete tasks like a pro and stay ahead of schedule when you feel more motivated. Self development requires you to remain consistent while improving your weaknesses. The right words can help you determine progress and measure the quality of your work.

Self development involves multiple steps, but it also provides several advantages. Motivational speakers can help you stay inspired through challenging times. Their words encourage dedication by demonstrating outcomes with real world examples
#5. Improve Your Performance
Motivational speakers give you something to compare your performance to, with alternative outcomes you can consider vicariously. They offer real life examples of trial and error and cause and effect. Many also provide tips on how to avoid specific consequences, problems, and pitfalls.

#7. Learn to Value the Good and Bad
Add fuel to the fire of your favorite dreams when you work on self development with a motivational speaker. Their presentations will likely provide practical steps for making things happen. You’ll also feel pumped up while getting prepared for immediate action.
Do you already have what it takes to achieve your goals, or do you need a push? Build confidence, create a network, and establish healthier thought patterns with targeted selfdevelopment
www.PlatinumMagazine.online
Motivating speeches can provide valuable insights into the positives and negatives of specific events. Self-development also helps teach you to appreciate success and failure Consider the most significant innovations in history. Then think about how many mistakes happened between start and finish.
Reduce your apprehension about personal and professional challenges with motivating words that make sense. Evoke feelings of pride and bravery instead of shame and fear. Self development begins when you get out of your head and away from your comfort zone.

While neither of these women asserted their personal opinion about abortion, both expressed the significant effects of the Dobbs decision on women’s lives. As a Supreme Court scholar, Dr. Jacobi speaks on how inconsistent this decision was with longstanding precedent. Dr. Slaughter continues by sharing how drastically different physicians now care for their pregnant patients, with some wanting to avoid treating expecting women at all, even if her life is in danger.
Below is an excerpt from both Dr. Jacobi and Dr. Slaughter from this discussion addressing how much the Dobbs case has limited women’s rights, not only as it pertains to abortion, but overall, as women’s rights have been reduced in the United States. What’s next? (and with the current Supreme Court, there will be a next.) The banning of contraceptives? The right to travel? The reversal of gay rights? What rights will the Supreme Court take back next?

Recently I attended a discussion about Dobbs v. Jackson, the Supreme Court case which overturned the monumental Roe v. Wade decision in 1973. There were 2 panels that convened for this discussion a Legal Panel and a Medical Panel. Both Dr. Tonja Jacobi, a Professor of Law at Emory Law School and Dr. Jocelyn Slaughter, M.D., the owner of several “Healthy Women” medical practices and the OBGYN Department Chair at a major Atlanta area hospital, spoke on these panels.

direct cases on point, and also the overall approach of the Court to the Constitution. First, and most obviously, in terms of the outcome, it was the first case where the Supreme Court had taken back the constitutional right that it recognized. There is a general and overwhelming trend towards expansion of rights.
www.PlatinumMagazine.online
That's really important, because it says important things about the Supreme Court and about whether they change their opinions on major issues of constitutional interpretation, with just swings in personnel. It also has a huge effect on women throughout the United States. This ruling has had a massive effect on women's lives, and that's something that was meant to be considered in terms of whether a precedent is followed. Dobbs not only overturned Roe vs. Wade and Casey, but Casey set out the grounds on which a major case like this should be overturned.
One of the factors is, “Is there significant reliance (on a constitutional right)?” Women have been

If you think about the franchise, for example, the franchise started off as being for white property male owners, and gradually was extended beyond property, to different races, to women, to people under 21, except that there's always been an expansion of rights. Dobbs is the first case that came along and said, we're going to actually take back a right that has been recognized. And it wasn't a right that was recognized recently, it was a right that was recognized almost 50 years ago.
38
That's not how constitutional analysis is undertaken. If you disagree with whether I have a right to a gun, and whether I should have a gun, that doesn't affect whether I have a right to a gun. And the Court didn't say, we recognize the right to have a handgun, but we also recognize that people want to live and not be shot, and so, therefore, that's going to restrict the rights of the gun owner.
In the very first paragraph of Dobbs, Justice Alito writes that some people believe that women's participation in the economy, women's right to control their bodies, and to be free and independent, essentially, is going to be adversely affected by them not being able to obtain an abortion. Alito continues by saying, that other people believe fervently that life begins at conception, and some people believe something in between. Throughout the opinion, Alito weighs these two things as if they're somehow equal and we can have differences of opinion on whether people have a right.
This Court picks and chooses how it's going to apply its analysis. They’re not supposed to define people's rights according to other people's opinions about whether they should have those rights or exercise those rights.
relying on having freedom over their bodies, freedom to work, and being part of the economy because they have control over their reproductive rights. Women had control over whether they choose the most fundamental thing of whether they had a child and when, and that's all been taken away. That's going to massively affect women's well-being, not just in the short term in terms of the sorts of procedures women are going to have to face otherwise, but also their ability to participate as equals in the economy.
MEDICAL DISCUSSION
At hospitals, we are also having challenges with physicians being afraid to call a pregnancy abnormal. That can be life threatening because if it is not treated, a woman could have a serious outcome. Now, more documentation from physicians is needed to call abnormal pregnancies abnormal and for medical emergencies.
We don't require people to agree to organ transplants, so we have more respect for the dead over their bodies than we do these days for women and their bodies.
The final thing I'll say is, even if you agree that life begins at conception, that doesn't answer the question about whether the Court can then come in and say, okay, life begins at conception, and therefore we're going to take this other person and make them risk their life and their health and their well being because we recognize that life exists.

Now physicians are becoming scared of how to manage these types of pregnancies. Not only the physicians but the pharmacist too So, if I have a patient that needs to have their pregnancy stopped through medication, I am having some pushback from pharmacists who are wanting more information before they disseminate a medication like Cytotec. Also, radiologists. If we as doctors determine that a pregnancy is not in the right place, the radiologists are the ones that make that call. Radiologists are sometimes nervous, and it is sometimes confusing for them to determine whether this pregnancy is in the tube or in the corner of the uterus.
Georgia law does have caveats. We have the opportunity to say that a termination is medically necessary to help in preventing universal damage or the death of a woman But that can be very
what has been well established against the opinion as to whether I think you should be able to have an abortion. And that's not generally a consideration that's taken into account.
Even if life begins at conception, the question is, what do you do about it? Should you impose the burden of protecting that life on a different person?
Question: How has the Dobbs decision impacted your medical practice and how has it changed the way you interact with your clientele?
Dr. Slaughter: So, I own a couple of medical practices called the “Healthy Woman” in Georgia.
I'm also the chair of our OBGYN department at a hospital. There are several things that have changed, specifically with the passing of the GA House Bill 481, also known as “The LIFE Act,” for a lot of us.
At the end of the day, the Dobbs decision is radical in terms of constitutional interpretation, in terms of the outcome, and in terms of the significant number of decisions that are being overturned.
First, as far as talking to patients, we no longer offer certain contraceptives, because they do not meet the criteria of law in Georgia. But let me walk you through a few scenarios that have changed for us. An ectopic pregnancy, which is a pregnancy implanted outside of the uterus, is allowed to be surgically managed However, you can also have a pregnancy that is in the corner of your uterus, which can still be life threatening.
unfortunately, stopping a pregnancy to save a woman's life who was, for example, in a terrible car accident. What if they do a surgery and they hit the uterus while they were trying to repair something else, but ended the pregnancy?
40www.PlatinumMagazine.online
We also have to determine if the pregnancy is medically futile. That's the thing that I think a lot of people don't really talk about regarding abortion It’s not just, I don't want to be pregnant. There are pregnancies that are abnormal, and science has allowed us to figure out which ones are abnormal before they actually come out. Patients can have different types of abnormal chromosomes, including Trisomy 21, Trisomy 18, and Trisomy 15 Some of these are compatible with some life. Some of them are compatible with no life. They're also cases where things are wrong with a baby's brain.
Again, science has given us the ability to determine if a pregnancy is going to look a certain way and the choice that women had to stop that pregnancy has been taken away. As physicians dealing with this loose language of what is a medically futile pregnancy is something that has changed for us. We now have to decide if we think a pregnancy is actually medically futile, and if it’s medically futile, having to produce the documentation, knowing that I could be challenged and possibly be legally liable if somebody else doesn't think it was.
So, I am concerned our patients may be suffering and physicians are concerned they could have some type of legal ramifications if what they do helps the woman but hurts the pregnancy Even though it is a legal defense, they still don't want to be involved.
subjective for physicians. We were trained as OBGYN doctors and surgeons that if a pregnancy looked like it was going to harm a woman or result in her death or infection, we could ask that woman, do you want this pregnancy? And if she said no, then we were more likely to treat her and stop the pregnancy. Those are things that have definitely changed in medicine. The training that we have now is different. It's not about if you want to continue this pregnancy, it's about do we think the pregnancy is going to actually hurt you or kill you. And that can be a difficult thing for physicians.
Finally, as a physician, I'm worried about my patients' care in other physicians’ hands because physicians who have other specialties are afraid that if they do something to save a woman's life, it could also end a pregnancy. Georgia law states that there is a defense if a physician ended up,
That could be a defense for that physician, but maybe that physician doesn’t want to treat pregnant patients. Maybe they're not going to want to do a procedure on them to help save their life. Maybe they're not going to do a procedure because they're afraid of injuring a pregnancy.
