90- Breaking Birth Bias- What’s Really Behind High Cesarean Rates

We’ve been told for years that cesarean rates are high because women’s bodies are failing—that somehow, birth just doesn’t work anymore. But that’s not the truth.

In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on what’s really driving those high cesarean numbers—and spoiler alert—it’s not biology, it’s bias.

You’ll learn:

💥 What “birth bias” actually means (and how it quietly shapes your care)

🏥 How hospital culture, provider fear, and outdated policies fuel interventions

👩‍⚕️ The difference between managing birth and supporting it

✊ How to spot bias in your own care—and what questions to ask instead

Because the problem isn’t your body. The problem is a system that stopped trusting it.

This episode will challenge what you’ve been told, open your eyes to how deep the conditioning runs, and remind you that your body was built to birth.

Tune in, get fired up, and let’s break this bias—together.
