From advertising executive to healthcare activist: A "reckoning of the soul"

My Better Half host Vanessa Finney visits with Kate Grant, who was in her 40s when she joined a movement to end obstetric fistula - a devastating childbirth complication that often adds insult to injury. At 66, she's published an award-winning memoir about it: "No Woman Left Behind: A Journey of Hope to Heal Every Woman Injured in Childbirth."
