The Female Brain
Beautifully ComplexThanks for Joining Us
From pregnancy and postpartum to motherhood and menopause, the female brain is constantly adapting.
We created this masterclass to explore the neuroscience behind those changes and to put language and science to experiences many women recognize in themselves.
Below you’ll find the workshop workbook, recommended reading, and additional resources to continue exploring the topics we discussed.
If tonight’s discussion sparked your curiosity, you may enjoy reading articles on multitasking, sharing the mental load and communication techniques.
