The misconceptions of motherhood: Chelsea Conaboy

Chelsea Conaboy knew things would change when she had kids, but she
never anticipated how different she would feel. New parents undergo
major structural and functional brain changes, driven by hormones
and the flood of stimuli a baby provides. As an award-winning
reporter, Chelsea decided to dive into our society’s ideas of
mothers and what they should be. She discusses her new book, Mother
Brain: How Neuroscience Is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood, and
the overwhelming nature of becoming a parent.
