00:00:00.000 I was speaking at a pro-life conference and I was sitting on a panel with some other speakers and
00:00:04.680 as one of the other speakers was talking I just had an idea come to my mind. I went to dinner
00:00:09.400 with my husband right after that and I told him I was like I have this idea and I was so excited
00:00:13.620 about it. I have a lot of ideas. Chief Related Broke could tell you that. Very few of them ever
00:00:17.800 come to fruition. Very few of them actually excite me. Actually most of the time I think about them
00:00:22.500 in the middle of the night and by the time I wake up in the morning I'm like totally forgot. There
00:00:25.740 was just something inside me where I was like, yes, this is actually something that I want to do.
00:00:43.460 Hey y'all, welcome to Relatable. Happy Monday. Hope everyone has had a wonderful week so far,
00:00:48.700 especially those of you who I got to see over the weekend at Share the Arrows. It was an amazing day
00:00:54.720 And I would love to play just some highlights.
00:00:57.360 We don't have the like official video yet, but just some highlights from this day.
00:01:01.700 Why do we come to share the arrows to get clarity and courage?
00:01:04.700 Clarity very simply comes from knowing God and his word and courage comes from trusting
00:01:10.500 God and his word.
00:01:11.960 If God is for us, who can be against us?
00:01:16.640 This God who is love, who is kindness, who is righteousness, who is compassion.
00:01:20.900 If that God is for me, then what he tells me to do, what he tells me to say, what he
00:01:27.680 tells me is right, and what he tells me is wrong is for my good and is done in love.
00:01:34.080 You have to trust him.
00:01:36.160 Thank you to all of you, all the many, many thousands of you who showed up and flew from
00:01:41.840 all around the world.
00:01:43.660 I told you guys here that I would not be keeping a secret from you what we announced at Share
00:01:50.160 the arrows forever, but that we would tell you eventually. And so here I am telling you about
00:01:56.680 what Chief Related Bro and I, what Timothy and I have been working on since January of 2025.
00:02:04.540 I want to play a video for you that we have also been working on for a while that introduces our
00:02:10.440 new app, Anna Kate. Early in girlhood, we were fed messages about our bodies.
00:02:16.160 Too big, too small.
00:02:18.300 Too much, not quite enough.
00:02:21.000 We heard a lot about how our bodies look.
00:02:24.140 Very little about what our bodies are for. 0.99
00:02:27.560 Then womanhood arrived. 1.00
00:02:29.500 Enter embarrassment. 1.00
00:02:32.520 We learned what a woman should be from sources that only offered us confusion. 1.00
00:02:39.560 And don't forget the birth control pill.
00:02:42.660 For all kinds of symptoms, most of our doctors prescribed it.
00:02:46.820 Later, college came, our careers started,
00:02:49.300 and motherhood was presented by much of the world as an inconvenience, rather than a gift.
00:02:55.780 For many of us, we had to work hard to buck these toxic messages
00:02:59.460 and instead choose a path of commitment and sacrifice.
00:03:03.780 But today, things have only gotten more confused. 0.95
00:03:06.340 in many spaces woman has become a dirty word replaced with people as in pregnant people and
00:03:14.600 people with periods promiscuity is seen as a rite of passage a form of liberation marriage is
00:03:20.440 characterized as at best an optional partnership based on feelings and at worst a form of oppression
00:03:26.440 a baby is viewed as a burden to avoid or a right any adult is entitled to even science has become
00:03:32.000 politicized, with many experts refusing to acknowledge the uniqueness of the
00:03:36.140 female body. It shouldn't be this way.
00:03:39.000 This is where life is created in this room.
00:03:46.000 It doesn't have to be this way.
00:04:02.000 We'll be right back.
00:04:32.000 the same path you are. With Anna Kate, you'll be equipped with truth, grounded in wisdom,
00:04:36.820 and encouraged by community. No matter what season you're in, Anna Kate is here to give
00:04:41.500 you insight into your body by tracking what's true. Anna Kate, for women, for life.
00:04:50.240 Anna Kate is a pro-life Christian period and pregnancy tracking app. Whether you are just 0.71
00:05:06.340 period tracking or whether you're trying to conceive or whether you're trying not to conceive
00:05:11.540 naturally or whether you are pregnant and you're tracking your pregnancy or whether you are in
00:05:16.420 those several weeks postpartum, this is a place for you to get wisdom and insight into your body
00:05:22.220 and into the God who created you. And you saw some of this on that promotional video, but the reason
00:05:29.400 this is different is not because it's a pregnancy or period tracker. There are a lot of those out
00:05:35.040 there. Some of them are totally hostile to our belief system. Some of them come across as more
00:05:40.640 neutral, but we are offering something that is unapologetically pro marriage, unapologetically
00:05:47.560 pro baby, unapologetically pro life and for male and female and the uniqueness of the female body
00:05:55.660 and pregnancy and everything that it entails. And we are bringing like-minded Christian women
00:06:00.360 together in our prayer board. That's one of my favorite features in the app that you can put
00:06:06.660 your prayer request out there and someone can commit to praying for you. And I just want to
00:06:11.480 tell a little bit about why we started this app and like how all of this began. I told you that
00:06:17.920 this is different than anything I've ever done before. And it really is like, I never thought
00:06:23.340 that I would be in the tech space or creating an app, but I was speaking at a pro-life conference,
00:06:29.800 which I do a lot throughout the year. And it was in Washington, DC, January of 25. And I was
00:06:36.440 sitting on stage and I was, I had already done my keynote keynote speech. And then I was sitting
00:06:42.340 on a panel with some other speakers. And as one of the other speakers was talking, I just had an
00:06:46.960 idea come to my mind. And it was like a pro-life Christian pregnancy and period tracking app.
00:06:52.080 And it was probably because my husband and I were talking about maybe adding a fourth to our family.
00:06:57.600 And I was just thinking about all of the tracking apps that I've used in the past and how I don't
00:07:02.180 like them. I either don't like how they look, or I don't like how they work, or I don't like the
00:07:06.220 messages or the images that they're pushing. I don't like the gender neutral language. I don't 0.51
00:07:11.280 like not being able to trust that they are giving me biologically accurate and biblically sound 1.00
00:07:17.140 information about my body and pregnancy because they might be pushing a gender neutral or gender
00:07:23.260 confused agenda or an anti-marriage or anti-baby or pro-abortion agenda. You shouldn't have to
00:07:31.240 look at that in at really ever, but especially in these very vulnerable seasons of life where
00:07:36.680 you're trying to conceive or when you're overjoyed because you're carrying life inside the womb.
00:07:41.600 And so that was the idea that popped into my head. And then I went to dinner with my husband
00:07:46.920 right after that. We were in DC. We went to a sushi restaurant and I told him, I was like,
00:07:51.420 I have this idea. And I was so excited about it. I have a lot of ideas. Chief or Lady Bro could
00:07:56.000 tell you that. I have a lot of ideas and very few of them ever come to fruition. Very few of them
00:08:00.560 actually excite me. Actually, most of the time I think about them in the middle of the night. And
00:08:04.460 by the time I wake up in the morning, I'm like, totally forgot what I was even thinking about or
00:08:08.740 dreaming about. But this one, there was just something inside me where I was like, yes,
00:08:13.720 this is actually something that I want to do. And so sat down with Timothy and I said, okay,
00:08:19.060 I have an idea. I have an idea. And just kind of like, I know generally what it looks like,
00:08:24.280 a Christian pro-life period and pregnancy tracking app. And he immediately, as he does,
00:08:30.820 was like, that's an amazing idea. I know exactly who to connect to. He connected to a good friend
00:08:36.260 that we have at our church who then knew exactly who to connect us to, who is a Christian in the
00:08:43.440 tech space, has been for a long time, who then connected us with a group of engineers and other
00:08:49.680 Christians in this space who helped us figure out, okay, technically, what is this actually
00:08:55.340 going to look like? The mission behind it, the heart behind it, the words behind it,
00:09:00.060 the creative vision behind it. That's all something that I was confident that through
00:09:04.560 the Lord I could bring to the table, but building an app, not something that I know about, not
00:09:10.460 something that I can actually do. And of course there were so many health aspects to this. Yes,
00:09:15.080 as a woman who is, I'm pregnant with my fourth child. Of course, there's a lot that I know,
00:09:20.180 but also I wanted to have medical expertise. I wanted there to be pro-life practitioners,
00:09:26.540 OBGYNs, midwives, doulas that help me and provide wisdom and insight so that this can be a
00:09:33.680 scripturally sound, scientifically accurate resource for Christian women. And that's what
00:09:41.520 we have built since January of 2025 with Anna Kate.
00:09:50.340 Quick pause to tell you about our first sponsor.
00:09:52.380 It's WeHeart Nutrition.
00:09:53.600 I love WeHeart Nutrition.
00:09:54.900 I've been telling you about how awesome they and all of their ingredients are for a long
00:09:58.840 time.
00:09:59.540 But it's not just me saying that.
00:10:01.080 Their entire supplement line has earned the Clean Label Project Purity Award.
00:10:06.220 Products are purchased anonymously by Clean Label Project, independently tested for purity,
00:10:10.800 including testing for 400 plus contaminants and must rank among the top performing products in
00:10:16.300 their category to earn the award. I love these supplements. They've made me feel so good this
00:10:21.020 pregnancy. My blood work has never looked better. I really credit WeHeart Nutrition with that. I love
00:10:26.600 that I'm not only getting the vitamins and minerals I need, but that the quality is so high. If you go
00:10:31.880 to WeHeartNutrition.com, you can use my code Allie for 20% off your first order. WeHeartNutrition.com
00:10:37.120 code Allie. At some point, I will tell you all of the details of how the Lord orchestrated this
00:10:47.560 and brought all the right people together and the timeline of everything. And I don't know that I
00:10:52.680 would have necessarily chosen all of this to be like launching an app and planning an event and
00:10:59.180 about to give birth to a baby all at the same time. But the Lord really has been so gracious
00:11:04.840 and putting together every detail. This is not only something that I want to be a resource,
00:11:10.680 of course, for every Christian woman, whether they follow me or not. The prayer is that it
00:11:14.540 goes so far beyond me, that this is not a relatable product. This is not a subsidiary
00:11:18.840 of the podcast or the relatable brand or anything like that. It's something that I hope goes far
00:11:24.520 beyond Allie Beth Stuckey into the hands of people who have never listened to the podcast,
00:11:28.880 who have never read me before, but they go to it because this is a place where they can find
00:11:34.140 peace, peace with their bodies, peace with their creator through Christ, where they can see gospel
00:11:39.120 truth. They are reminded of scripture every day of biblical truth, biblical encouragement,
00:11:45.100 where they can find resources about their bodies, fertility, pregnancy, birth, periods, all of these
00:11:51.340 things. Yes, from a scientific angle, but also from a scripturally sound one. Yes, I want it to
00:11:57.160 be all of those things, but I also want this to be an evangelistic tool. One thing that we've
00:12:02.680 thought about from the beginning is how can we partner with pregnancy centers? You all have
00:12:07.260 heard me talk about pregnancy centers from the beginning of relatable. They're just something
00:12:11.980 that I'm passionate about that I love helping. I have through you guys and your generosity
00:12:17.920 have supported many, many pregnancy centers all across the country who are helping save women's
00:12:24.200 lives. And I want Anna Kate, this app to be used by them. I want them to be able to give these
00:12:30.540 women, this app, free access to this app so that women who are deciding whether or not to choose
00:12:35.860 life, that they're going to read that their baby, that they are made in God's image, that they
00:12:41.780 were intricately made in their mother's womb, that that is also true of their baby. I want them
00:12:47.420 to see and know the scientific reality of life inside the womb and also understand the spiritual
00:12:52.920 value of who they are and who their baby is. And another part of this also is that I wanted this
00:12:59.940 to be a connecting place for pro-life Christian practitioners. So if you're a midwife, if you're
00:13:06.200 a doula, if you're an OBGYN, if you're a nutritionist, if you are a biblical counselor,
00:13:11.480 if you are really anyone in the realm of women's health, we have a directory and you have to agree
00:13:17.360 at the very least with these two things. One, that we are only made male and female. Only women can
00:13:24.920 get pregnant. Okay. And that all people are made in God's image from the moment of conception 1.00
00:13:29.480 onward. Okay. If you can affirm those two things, those are the two qualifications for being on this
00:13:36.520 directory. And a lot of people are like, well, how do you know everyone is being real about that?
00:13:41.700 People aren't going to put their name and their face next to those two statements on the app,
00:13:46.460 unless they really believe it. And it's just so beautiful already seeing so many of these
00:13:51.220 practitioners be able to come together and connect to like-minded clients. So you can see
00:13:55.920 the, um, the values aligned practitioners that are in your area through the directory.
00:14:02.560 And we have so many dreams for like how this can grow and how we can reach more women and how the
00:14:08.120 Lord can use this. But we are so excited about where we are starting. There's been a lot just
00:14:14.040 like there is in launching any business or any app or any project. Like there have been times
00:14:19.260 where we were like, okay, it would, it would be better if we launched it then, or if we launched
00:14:23.040 it earlier. There was a time where we thought we would launch it several months before Share the
00:14:27.420 Arrows. And I was like, it's just not, it's not right yet. It's not there yet. I really, really
00:14:32.080 care about serving you well, about serving Christian women well. And I, it was really,
00:14:38.320 really important to us to get it to a place where it's doing just that. And we will continue to get
00:14:43.620 your feedback and improve and grow and all of these things. But I'm just so thankful for Anna
00:14:48.660 Kate and a little about the name Anna Kate, because you might be wondering where that comes
00:14:54.800 from or why we chose that. And I, I was thinking, I was wrestling in the beginning with like, okay,
00:15:01.500 what would we call this? This is one of the first things I did by the way, because this is where I,
00:15:06.180 this is where I shine. I like to think of names and, you know, marketing schemes and, and things
00:15:11.520 like that. I love marketing and PR and branding and creative and all of that. And so from the
00:15:16.220 very beginning, I was like, I need to give this name. I don't want to just call it the app.
00:15:19.440 And so I took out my Bible, I took out my journal, and I started thinking of the English words that
00:15:26.640 I wanted to describe this app. Peace, rest, rhythm, respite. Like what are those words in
00:15:35.020 scripture? Where do I see them show up in scripture? And what are the Hebrew and the
00:15:40.420 Greek equivalents? Like how do I say this in the original Greek or Hebrew in the Bible? And so
00:15:45.860 I did that and I came across a Greek word in Matthew 11, 28, and that is anapausis. It's a
00:15:55.440 little bit strange how you say it, anapausis. If you read it like in our English dialect,
00:16:00.480 we'd probably say anapausis. And what this means is rest. Matthew 11, 28 says, come to me,
00:16:07.720 all you who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest. There are different kinds
00:16:14.040 of rest in scripture, but that rest is ina pausis. And there are different ways to define it,
00:16:21.460 but in general, it means that you are resting even while you are inwardly toiling. It is kind of like
00:16:27.960 an active kind of rest, a rest that we find in Christ. And then there's another kind of rest
00:16:34.940 that we see, for example, in the book of Hebrews, and that is katah pausis, or we would probably
00:16:40.940 say it if we just read it, katapasis. And that is also Greek for rest, but this is a ceasing from
00:16:47.920 striving. This is the kind of rest that we look forward to in heaven. One day in Christ, we aren't,
00:16:54.040 we aren't getting this rest. We don't have access to this kind of rest here today, but it is the
00:16:59.060 future rest that we get to look forward to. So we have an op house cease and catap house cease.
00:17:05.300 these are two different forms of rest, both of which are found in Christ. And when women go to 1.00
00:17:11.500 this app, I want them to feel just aesthetically peaceful. I want them to feel restful. When you 0.86
00:17:17.520 go to a lot of these tracking apps, it's really stressful. It's chaotic. Some of them are just
00:17:22.420 straight up ugly. It was really important to me that this was aesthetically pleasing and that it
00:17:26.540 was beautiful and peaceful. And then also that you would be reminded of these timeless truths
00:17:32.220 in God's word that give that inward rest and that remind us of the rest that we will have
00:17:38.700 one day when all of the cycles and the pain of childbirth and the striving to get pregnant,
00:17:44.300 all of those things will one day come to an end and a joyous end because there will be no more
00:17:50.680 anxiety. There will be no more of the stress and the endless toil that we are used to here in this
00:17:58.240 life, but there will be perfect peace and perfect rest as Jesus rules forever and ever. And so
00:18:03.680 it's shortened to Anna Kate. I love me a double name. My name is Allie Beth and Anna Kate is also
00:18:10.560 a person like she is your older sister. She is a sage that is guiding you through period tracking,
00:18:17.380 through your pregnancy, through postpartum with again, scientific wisdom and biblical insight.
00:18:28.920 Next sponsor is Concerned Women for America.
00:18:31.520 The midterms are coming up.
00:18:32.620 Maybe you're like, okay, I want to be able to defend my position.
00:18:35.420 I want to know what's going on in this election.
00:18:38.040 You need to get involved with Concerned Women.
00:18:40.780 They are the largest Christian organization, American Christian women's organization,
00:18:45.340 and works to equip women and families to pray, educate, advocate for biblical values in our culture and public policy.
00:18:52.200 One of the most important issues we can be equipped to speak about is the sanctity of life.
00:18:56.180 They have this newly rewritten edition of their Sanctity of Life booklet to equip young women for conversations we're facing today.
00:19:04.720 It helps explain why every human life has value, why protecting the unborn matters, how Christians can speak about life with both conviction and compassion.
00:19:13.160 So whether you're a parent, student, church leader, or you just want to better prepare to defend life, this resource is for you.
00:19:19.120 You can get your copy with a gift of $25.
00:19:21.920 Go to ConcernedWomen.org slash Allie.
00:19:26.180 So you can follow us on Instagram, Anna Kate app. And yeah, I just, I just ask for your
00:19:36.720 prayer. I ask that the Lord would be glorified through this, that women would be reached,
00:19:41.580 that there would be pregnancy centers and the women who come through those pregnancy centers,
00:19:45.560 who are served practitioners, who are connected to just the right person at just the right time,
00:19:50.960 that these resources educate and edify women. And yeah, I'm just so grateful for the opportunity
00:19:58.480 and for the idea and very, very grateful to Chief Related Bro and our entire team. Chief Related Bro,
00:20:06.300 I mean, he made this happen. Like he made it happen. He runs the show. It would not have
00:20:10.740 happened without him. Like so many of the things that I say and so many of the things that I come
00:20:15.460 up with, it would have just, I don't know. It would have just never come to fruition because
00:20:20.900 I think of a lot of things, but he is, um, such a good leader in just making these things happen.
00:20:26.740 He is the one that actually executes on things and makes them successful. And I'm so thankful
00:20:31.860 for the team that came together and has been just tirelessly building this. There is so much that
00:20:37.280 I've learned y'all about technology and everything. And, um, one of my favorite parts,
00:20:42.420 I know it's kind of like all over the place because I'm just so excited about it all.
00:20:46.500 But another set of people that I want to think are the OBGYNs and the midwives and the doulas
00:20:55.280 that were a part of a really special part of this app, a very special piece that I just saw the
00:21:01.140 Lord's hand in so much were these pregnancy videos. So pregnancy update videos every week
00:21:06.720 of pregnancy, four weeks to 42 weeks. It was very important as someone who always goes over my due
00:21:11.640 date for everything to go to 42 weeks, not just 40 weeks, um, that give you insight into what's
00:21:17.340 going on with your body, what's going on with your baby, what you need to be thinking about,
00:21:21.000 what you need to be doing at this time. And those women have provided a lot of wisdom and insight
00:21:27.320 and guidance and correction when needed and have helped me really understand like,
00:21:32.560 what does this app technologically and scientifically need in order to serve women
00:21:36.860 accurately and well. So if you are pregnant or not pregnant, you can actually access that through
00:21:42.200 the resources button on Anna Kate and you can watch all of those videos. They're very just
00:21:48.300 beautifully done. Thank you to Brady Clayton as well. Like he is such an awesome editor and
00:21:53.260 videographer who helped with all of our videography here. And, um, yeah, Anna Kate, go to AnnaKate.com.
00:22:00.800 If you are a related bro, make sure that the related girl in your life gets Anna-Kate.
00:22:07.700 And one other thing I want to say and make sure that you know is that the reason why
00:22:11.620 there is like a low cost subscription to this is because another way we want to serve you
00:22:16.760 well.
00:22:17.260 Next, I want to get into why we built this app.
00:22:20.780 And some of it has to do with the competition that exists and the mission that they are
00:22:26.420 pushing and the lives that they are ruining by really propagating all types of false and negative
00:22:36.160 messages to women, even Christian women. And let me read you a text that I got from one of my 0.88
00:22:42.180 friends. Now, this is a story from her. I'm not able to verify whether or not there is a connection
00:22:48.800 here, but I think it may be likely based on the content that this particular app is pushing. So
00:22:56.180 here's what my friend texted me. She said, I would love to try out your app. I was telling her about
00:23:00.720 it before it was launched. And she said, I used natural cycles for a couple of years. And when I
00:23:05.080 recorded that my last pregnancy was unexpected, suddenly I was getting ads for abortion centers
00:23:11.200 on Snapchat and other social media. She said, I've tried a few other apps. I haven't loved them.
00:23:17.620 Now I do not know if natural cycles is selling that kind of data to those entities that are then
00:23:24.180 selling that data to places like Planned Parenthood and abortion clinics to send you
00:23:28.920 advertisements? I don't know. I do know based on what natural cycles does say on their app that
00:23:35.900 they are pro abortion. So let me give you some examples of this because I know that this is an
00:23:42.120 app that a lot of you use and there are some good aspects of it because you like that it helps you
00:23:46.820 track your cycle. It's very sophisticated and it's charting and things like that. But here is what we
00:23:52.500 are supporting when we're using natural cycles. They have articles promoting abortion, directing
00:23:57.900 its users to plan parenthood for abortions and linking directly to their site. For example,
00:24:04.140 there's an article titled, what is abortion to access these methods? You may need to visit a
00:24:09.200 hospital or a clinic such as planned parenthood. Natural cycles has a description of abortion 0.81
00:24:15.180 in this article that it completely eliminates the unborn baby from the description. So it says
00:24:21.720 suction abortion is quote, a quick abortion procedure that involves a delicate suction
00:24:26.780 process that empties the uterus. This usually takes around five to 10 minutes, and you can
00:24:32.300 usually go home within a few hours of the procedure that mimics almost exactly what
00:24:37.200 Planned Parenthood says on its own website for dilation and evacuation. That's a DNA abortion. 1.00
00:24:44.320 Natural cycle says this type of in clinic abortion procedure uses suction medical tools to empty the 1.00
00:24:49.480 uterus, empty the uterus. Okay. Think about that. Think about what that is a euphemism for. 0.88
00:24:55.060 D&E is usually used later in pregnancy and takes around 10 to 20 minutes to complete.
00:25:00.500 Most people will be able to go home the same day.
00:25:07.760 Next sponsor is CrowdHealth. I have seen how the health insurance industry doesn't
00:25:12.840 seem to be built to actually care for families. That's why we switched from traditional health
00:25:17.600 insurance to crowd health they put the care back in health care with a community focused
00:25:22.440 low-cost alternative i signed up i've experienced how empowering it is to have real advocates on
00:25:27.900 your side they're a community of people who've decided to stop letting profit-driven insurance
00:25:32.620 companies call all the shots you've got personal care advocates bill negotiators you don't have
00:25:37.660 any networks or restrictions it's amazing together crowd health members have already saved over 56
00:25:43.220 million dollars. Be part of a community focused on advocating for your family's health. Join

00:26:03.820 so you might think well that's not all that bad that's not celebrating abortion it's sanitizing
00:26:13.680 abortion again if you go to the Planned Parenthood website this is almost exactly how they're
00:26:19.040 describing these abortion procedures and they will even say things like pregnancy tissue
00:26:23.620 emptying the uterus these are all euphemisms for killing an unborn child and yes I know
00:26:29.800 a DNC can also be used for a miscarriage, but we're talking about a dilation and evacuation
00:26:36.960 abortion. Like we are talking about vacuum suction being used to take out a baby and even
00:26:43.900 natural cycles admits this is later in pregnancy. So we're talking late in the first trimester
00:26:48.420 through the second trimester. This is a method that's typically used and how they talk about it
00:26:54.460 in linking to Planned Parenthood is completely and totally pro-abortion. I don't know the
00:27:00.980 fullness of the partnership between natural cycles and Planned Parenthood, but clearly there's one
00:27:08.060 there. And then we have the Flow app. Flow maintains a statement titled Flow's Position
00:27:13.020 on Abortion that begins being able to access a safe abortion is a crucial part of healthcare.
00:27:18.220 Okay. So they are hiding it and they're not hiding it. Okay. They're hiding it because again,
00:27:23.260 they use these euphemisms being able to access a safe abortion is a crucial part of health care
00:27:28.140 health care abortion is not health care because it is killing the life of a child and then we have
00:27:35.060 ovia ovia has an entire abortion section in its reproductive health library current articles
00:27:41.000 include what is a medical abortion and how to access one and preparing for pregnancy and states
00:27:46.580 with abortion bans and restrictions again doesn't hide it ovia health says this the abortion bans
00:27:53.160 and many states do not have exceptions for these situations. These laws can be confusing and cause
00:27:57.060 delays in care of the pregnant person. So many things there. Like what are we even talking about?
00:28:03.640 Knowing your state's guidelines and where you can travel to safely get the care you need. Again,
00:28:08.580 we're talking about ending the life of an image bearer of God. It's post-abortion guide tells 0.97
00:28:13.140 readers what emotions to expect after an abortion. It can also include, they say, immense relief.
00:28:19.740 So abortion, according to natural cycles, according to flow, according to Ovia, it is
00:28:27.600 as bad as getting a tooth pulled and as great as finding relief, as getting something fixed,
00:28:35.680 getting something solved in your life. 0.97
00:28:37.700 Then you have Yuki, E-U-K-I, they have a built-in abortion provider search.
00:28:42.600 So Anna Kate has a pro-life practitioner directory search.
00:28:46.800 they have an abortion provider search. After the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022, many of these
00:28:53.800 apps also made statements saying they would not disclose the info of users who had abortions in
00:28:59.800 states where it was illegal. So Clue, for example, Clue was very against the overturning of Roe v.
00:29:05.600 Wade. They said at Clue, we strongly believe that the very personal decision to end a pregnancy,
00:29:10.360 there's no babies involved in any of these descriptions at all. Like you would have no,
00:29:14.880 if you didn't know, like if you didn't understand the English language or you had no context for
00:29:19.520 this, you wouldn't even know what they're talking about. What is ending a pregnancy?
00:29:24.040 Even like a child would read something like that and be like, wait, what, what are you talking
00:29:29.440 about? Like there's some, there's obviously something that's missing here. So clue says
00:29:35.140 should be made. This decision should be made in the context of legal regulated healthcare without
00:29:39.080 shame or fear of prosecution. No U S court or other authority can simply override that
00:29:44.740 since we are not based in the U.S., our user data cannot be subpoenaed from the U.S.
00:29:51.780 Flo also responded to the Dobbs decision launching an anonymous mode. Okay. So they're
00:29:57.140 trying to protect you from the big bad government who wants to protect these babies inside the womb.
00:30:02.760 Now, this is all opposed to Anna Kate. Anna Kate, our tagline is for women, for life,
00:30:10.760 for women, for life. And those kind of have two meanings. We are for women and that we are for
00:30:16.160 women. We exist for women and we are for life. We are for the life of a woman, but we are also
00:30:21.740 advocates for. So we are also for women. We are for you. We're cheering you on. And we are for
00:30:27.480 life. We are advocates for life. It's for women and for life. We believe that all babies, no matter
00:30:34.320 the circumstances surrounding their conception, no matter their age, no matter their size are
00:30:38.560 fully made in God's image and should be protected fully. They are fully people and therefore they
00:30:45.320 are deserving of our care and they are deserving of legal protection. And we are not ashamed of
00:30:51.560 that. We don't caveat that Anna Kay is for women and for life. Now, of course, it's never just
00:30:58.400 abortion. It's never just abortion that any entity is supporting. There is where there is some
00:31:05.080 disorder, there's going to be other kinds of disorder. And so you see in these apps that also
00:31:09.840 can't even muster an accurate definition of abortion and a clear picture of what abortion
00:31:16.580 is doing and taking the life of a baby inside the womb, that there's also confusion about what a
00:31:21.820 woman even is. You would think that these apps that are apparently created for a woman's cycle
00:31:26.760 would just be able to say woman or mother, but a lot of them can't. And a lot of them are confused
00:31:32.280 about like what makes a baby and like what marriage is, or they're just trying to be as
00:31:37.460 neutral as possible about this, which I think fosters confusion too. You guys know I'm all
00:31:41.540 about clarity. This app is all about clarity. Natural cycles operates a substantial sex education
00:31:47.700 and sexual pleasure section. Okay. About half of its sex and pleasure library features images
00:31:54.000 of lesbian couples. Okay. I just want to say that again, half, half, this is an app that is supposed 1.00
00:32:01.680 to help you get pregnant. Okay. And half of the depictions in these articles are of two people
00:32:06.860 who cannot make a baby. Okay. Half of its sex and pleasure library features images of lesbian
00:32:12.940 couples. All right. You also, I don't, I can't even like tell you all of these. Okay. There's 1.00
00:32:19.000 just some examples and it's all, it's very raunchy. Okay. These articles about sexual
00:32:24.500 pleasure and how to pleasure your partner, all of these depictions of lesbians. Um, also the site 1.00
00:32:33.360 publishes material on BDSM kinks involving consensual, non-consensual sex stating that 0.58
00:32:40.620 these kinds of fantasies are quote normal. Okay. So even these apps like natural cycles that appear 0.91
00:32:49.460 to be neutral are so not neutral. They are not neutral. They are hostile to the biblical
00:32:55.100 worldview. We at Anna Kate, we believe in marriage. We believe in marriage between one man and one 0.93
00:33:02.380 woman. We are not afraid to say woman. We are not afraid to say that only women have periods. We are 0.96
00:33:07.420 not afraid to say you have to be a mom to give birth. Like it's crazy how that has become
00:33:15.980 controversial, but we are completely unapologetic and unwavering about that.
00:33:24.640 Pre-Born has incredible news. They have saved over 50,000 babies this year with more than 5,100
00:33:31.040 commitments to Christ through their ministry. That is such an amazing movement that you guys
00:33:38.600 are a part of just by donating whatever you can. They offer all kinds of free resources
00:33:43.080 for moms in need and you can be a part of that. Just donate $28 and you cover the cost of a free
00:33:48.980 ultrasound for a mom who then will get to see the humanity of her baby inside the womb and 0.97
00:33:54.080 choose life. Just go to preborn.com slash Allie. All gifts are tax deductible. Make your donation 1.00
00:34:00.140 today. That's preborn.com slash Allie. And then another popular app, Ovia, maintains an LGBTQIA
00:34:11.900 plus family planning section features same-sex couples using donor sperm, IUI, IVF to have
00:34:18.080 children. It also publishes resources for trans quote-unquote individuals, such as one titled
00:34:23.560 managing your period as a transgender, queer, or non-binary person. It's exhausting. Yuki describes
00:34:30.040 his app in gender ideological terms, a free gender inclusive privacy first period tracking
00:34:35.960 app and reproductive health tool. Flo's health library currently has dedicated LGBTQ plus
00:34:41.160 category that features articles with titles like the best lesbian sex toys, trans period. I feel 0.95
00:34:47.420 like I can't even fully say this because they just grossed me out how to navigate your period 1.00
00:34:52.080 when you're trans or non-binary. Clue says its app was designed to include all pregnant people, 1.00
00:34:58.000 pregnant people. Gosh, is there a word for that? Is there a word for the kind of person who can
00:35:02.980 get pregnant. I don't know because some people, they say, they just say it actually. Some people
00:35:08.380 who don't identify as women can become pregnant and birth. Oh, clue explains that except when 0.97
00:35:15.060 discussing studies specifically conducted on women, it uses the phrase pregnant people to
00:35:20.560 encompass all women, non-binary and transgender people who can become pregnant. It also says
00:35:25.600 pregnancy can produce gender dysphoria for transgender and gender non-conforming users.
00:35:30.420 and so if you're a christian woman and if you're ever just like can we not have one thing like can
00:35:35.520 we not just have one place where we are not having to jump hurdles and go through hoops to just like
00:35:42.540 read accurate information and to just be able to be told what is true like sometimes you might not
00:35:48.720 even be looking for the biblical truth that we also offer in a cape but you're just looking for
00:35:52.720 like accurate information accurate language and you can't even get that because they're covering
00:35:58.620 things in euphemisms and this very confusing language. Let me read to you our statement of
00:36:05.220 faith. Anna Kate is a family owned and operated company rooted in the Christian faith. Our mission
00:36:10.020 reflects the truth that God is creator of all things, including our bodies. He made people in
00:36:15.300 his image in exactly two sexes, male and female. We affirm that these are biological and immutable
00:36:21.000 designations that cannot be changed via declaration or medical alteration. Both men and women have
00:36:27.640 equal value, but their own unique functions. Only women have the ability to have a cycle, 0.99
00:36:32.980 get pregnant and birth babies. We view all babies as blessings from the moment of conception onward.
00:36:38.600 We honor marriage as the sacred union of a man and a woman and sex as a gift meant only for marriage.
00:36:44.300 That's why Anna Kate unapologetically states that we are for women and for life. The for in our
00:36:49.580 motto, as I said earlier, has two meanings, exists for and advocates for. We exist for women and we
00:36:54.440 are advocates for women. We exist for the whole life of a woman, and we are advocates for the
00:36:58.540 life she may be created in her womb. Our most foundational belief at Anna Kate is this. The
00:37:03.620 same God who created us also made a way to save us. He sent his son Jesus to die on the cross for
00:37:09.220 our sins and rise again three days later so that whoever believes in him wouldn't die but have
00:37:13.920 eternal life. Each of these convictions drives who we are and everything we do at Anna Kate.
00:37:19.540 If you're looking for a values-aligned resource and community to help you understand your body,
00:37:23.580 your cycle, fertility, or your pregnancy, join the Anna Kate family and start to track what's
00:37:28.760 true today. Anna Kate for women for life. That is the belief statement, the clear mission that
00:37:35.720 we have on our website and everywhere that you will find us. That's another one of our taglines,
00:37:41.460 track what's true, track what's true, track what is true biblically, track what is true
00:37:46.880 scientifically. We have so much coming down the pipeline for this app. And I have no doubt,
00:37:52.400 first of all, like we are very aware of spiritual opposition. Like we are very aware that, um,
00:37:59.740 look, there are powers that be spiritual and political and, uh, probably like, um, economic
00:38:07.880 powers that don't want an app like this to be successful and reach women and to tell them
00:38:13.880 what's true. Propaganda has a really big market share, but we're not going to let them have a
00:38:19.960 monopoly. And so the best way that you can help me share the arrows, the best way that you can
00:38:26.080 help Anna Kate, and not just, you know, joining the app because it's great to have more users,
00:38:32.200 but really you can help advance our mission. Like you can help be ambassadors for this.
00:38:39.100 This is part of how we push back against darkness. There's so many ways to do that.
00:38:43.400 You don't have to start a business. You don't have to have a conference. You don't have to have a
00:38:46.500 podcast. You certainly don't have to be a political activist to push back against darkness,
00:38:50.560 but this is one way that we feel the Lord has called us to do this through Anna Kate. So thank
00:38:58.040 you to everyone who helped make this happen. As you can see, there's a lot of darkness,
00:39:02.180 a lot of confusion, a lot of deception out there. And from the very beginning, Satan has had it out
00:39:07.140 for people in general as God's image bearers and as the recipients of like his special love toward
00:39:14.920 us. But it seems like he especially enjoys, if I can say, deceiving women and targeting children.
00:39:23.580 I think that's why so many of these things have become distorted and perverted, like the gift of
00:39:28.900 sex, marriage, childbearing, pregnancy, and all of that. Satan is just having a heyday, confusing us
00:39:36.260 about all of those things. And we have to push back with clarity. I want Anna Kate to be a refuge
00:39:41.680 of clarity and courage for Christian women. So I just really encourage you to join us. You can
00:39:49.440 follow us on Instagram. You can go to annakate.com. I'm sure there are things as I'm like so excited
00:39:55.920 to be talking about this to you for the first time that I forgot to mention that, um, I will
00:40:01.060 be talking about more in the days and the weeks to come. It's been super fun for me to be pregnant
00:40:07.460 and to be able to use this app.
00:40:09.700 So I'll be talking about that more on social media
00:40:11.580 and like the different features I love
00:40:13.760 and how I've been using it
00:40:15.680 because it really has just been such like a special joy.
00:40:18.140 Like, thank you, Lord, for that gift
00:40:19.400 of both of these things happening at the same time.
00:40:21.640 And I really hope and pray that it's a blessing to you.
