Ep 30 | The Invisible Nudge: How Your Medical Decision is Being Influenced
Description
What if the biggest influence on your medical decisions isn’t what’s said out loud, but what’s happening silently in the background?
This episode is the final part of our 5-part series, The Empowered Mom’s Guide to Medical Advocacy. We uncover the subtle “nudges” built into the medical system that can steer your decisions without you even realizing it. These influences aren’t always malicious, but they are powerful, and every mom deserves to know how to spot them.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
The psychology of why “nudges” are so effective in high-pressure medical settings
Common ways providers and systems frame information that shifts your choices
Practical strategies to pause and recognize when you’re being steered
How to bring the conversation back to informed consent and real options
Why noticing these invisible nudges is the first step to reclaiming your voice in the exam room
If you’ve ever left an appointment wondering, “Did I really choose that, or was I guided into it?” this episode will give you clarity and tools to slow down, notice the influence, and stand firm in making decisions that reflect your values.
