麻豆社

There is no other time in a woman's life when her identity changes as much as when she becomes a mother. Melissa Hogenboom, 麻豆社 science journalist and author, explores the hidden forces at play that shape a mother's identity, biology and physical self. From the pioneering neuroscientific research into the positive impact of a changing brain, to the way societal expectations and cultural norms change the motherhood experience. Melissa also takes a journey with her family to her homeland of the Netherlands to understand why the Dutch are more relaxed when it comes to parenting.
