Show notes
Becoming a parent changes your life—but what happens to your brain? Neuroscientist Susana Carmona explores the remarkable transformations of pregnancy and parenthood in A Mother’s Brain: The New Science of the Neuro-Maternal Revolution, and explains why “mommy brain” isn’t quite what we think.
