Gloria dives into the science of parenting with Chelsea Conaboy, author of Mother Brain: How Neuroscience is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood. They discuss how becoming a parent physically changes your brain, what the science says about the highly-debated “maternal instinct,” and how she hopes these new findings can get more people in this country to value caregivers. Plus, what we know about the brain transformation of non-biological parents.
