We are often unaware of how language can implicitly be exclusionary.

Emerson explains what led them from content writing into the world of UX writing. They talk about the projects that they did during a volunteer program at Kindship, how this drew their attention to the many ways that writing can be exclusionary, and set them up for their current role. Tuning in you’ll hear how Emerson knew that UX writing was the perfect career for them and how their writing process changed when they transitioned from content writing to UX writing, before explaining why inclusion shouldn’t be an add-on but something that is worked into the writing process from the beginning. To find out Emerson’s tips and resources for anyone who is interested in getting into UX writing, as well as their best practices for writing inclusive copy, tune in today!
