Hi friends! You are in for a treat with this one! I invited Dr. Nicole Pensak back on the show for a second episode. In case you didn't catch the first one yet, she is a Harvard and Yale trained Clinical Psychologist that specializes in providing anxiety treatment as well as treatment for adults with depression, OCD, and postpartum mental health. Dr. Pensak is most passionate about helping Moms thrive in motherhood and reach their full potential. This episode specifically is about how the brain changes during motherhood and how it's so far from just feeling forgetful and foggy. New moms' brains are responsible for responding to relentless demands, multi-tasking, keeping the baby alive, nurturing, soothing, protecting, and engaging. This brain is brilliant! Listen to today's episode to learn more about the neuro-specific details and research that Dr. Pensak has done on this topic. Dr. Pensak has also written a book on this topic, that will be released within the next year. I can't wait for you to listen to today's episode and share some of your take aways!
