Episode 9: Michelle Branco on Risk-Based Language in Birth Work

Episode Summary

Michelle Branco joins us for a conversation about health communications and the specific weight risk-based language carries in childbirth education and in everyday interactions with pregnant and early parenting families.

This one matters because the way we frame information shapes the choices people feel free to make. Michelle helps us look at language that creeps into our classes, charts, and prenatals, and gives us better questions to ask about how we deliver information.

A short, sharp episode for anyone who teaches, counsels, or supports families and wants their words to land the way they intend.
