Description: The teenage contributors use poetry, prose, art, and baking recipes to explore women's body autonomy's correlation with success. They open with facts and statistics, and highlight issues associated with accessing abortions and reproductive healthcare. Contributors share their experiences in Catholic school and the inadequate and incomplete sex education that they are  provided. They investigate the stigma surrounding open conversations about sex and reproduction, and resources that are offered at a Planned Parenthood clinic. -- Grace Li
