It's not a coincidence that these are the very same brain areas that are also involved in planning and foresight, creativity, resourcefulness, inventiveness, and INITIATIVE.These are all outstanding attributes for business leaders and thought shifters!Before you lose your mind--- (so to speak)---it's time for you to discover the positive ways in which your mind has shifted since venturing into motherhood.
