About us

Mommy Brain EDU exists to help mothers, their partners, family members, healthcare professionals, employers, and the curious general public prepare for and embrace the brain and body changes that occur during pregnancy and the postpartum. We do this by translating the most relevant peer-reviewed scientific research on the maternal brain and body into palatable information presented via talks and workshops. By presenting this research, we aim to enrich their lives and to improve the psychological outcome of mothers during this beautiful and sometimes difficult transitional time.

"Angie’s presentations are always informative, they give clarity to many, and her insightful suggestions encourage our new mothers to be gentler with themselves as they adjust to their own unique style of mothering. Her talks are the perfect topic for our new mothers, and we are so fortunate to have had her here to regularly present such heartfelt, open, intelligent, and relevant presentations. Each talk has led to such meaningful discussions, and it’s been wonderful to have her expertise on such a very overlooked and underrepresented topic. She has a natural ability to translate scientific research into an easy to digest presentation with such a genuine and honest disposition allowing her to connect on an intimate level with our new mothers. She will surely be missed by all."

"I absolutely loved your message about how brain function literally changes for women after children. It was always hard for me to understand women with children and how much emphasis and stress they put on things pertaining to their children. Even just the little things! After listening to the medical research and detailed information you presented, along with my own new-mom experience.... it definitely makes sense that our brains change once we have our own children. It was a very thoughtful and realistic message!"

"Angie came to the Mom's group that was offered at the hospital where I gave birth. She gave a presentation on women's brains before and after birth. It was a very informative class. I did not know what your brain and body goes through before and after birth and it helped me understand how to adapt to these new changes in my life, in addition to taking care of a new baby. She also explained that as new mothers, we do need to take time for ourselves, which I think many of struggle with. I enjoyed taking this class."

"Angie’s talk really made everything click for me as it explained how my brain has literally changed with having a child. It taught me to be more sympathetic to these changes and to be more patient with my brain, as it is functioning in a way that allows me to be a good mom. This talk was useful to me as a Mom of a 2-year-old and as an expectant Mom to a baby due in July. I think I’ll definitely be more tuned into and sympathetic to the effects of the physiological changes happening this time around!"
