The Family Firm with Emily Oster

The Behavioral Design Podcast - A podcast by Samuel Salzer

We're back with Season 2 - yay! We start the new season with a bang as our first guest is none other than Emily Oster. 🎉  Besides being Aline's favorite person to follow, Emily is an economics professor at Brown University and a thought-leader on data-driven parenting. She has written several best-selling books on pregnancy and parenting, all centered around a specific goal: creating a world of more relaxed pregnant women and parents. In this episode, we have a fun conversation with Emily about her latest book, The Family Firm (out today!). We learn about her fantastic 4 Fs framework, discuss salience of risk and how that impacts decision-making, learn what science communication often gets wrong, AND why Summersalt swimwear is underrated.
