Becoming a parent is a biological, psychological, and social transformation. Priyanka and Hari talk with science journalist Lucy Jones, author of Matrescence: On the Metamorphosis of Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Motherhood, about the concept of matrescence and why the transition into motherhood can feel so destabilizing, emotional, and overwhelming, even for people who deeply want children. From dramatic hormonal shifts to structural changes in the brain, science shows that becoming a parent reshapes us in profound ways. The conversation also explores how modern society has made raising children more isolating than ever and what we can do to better support our communities.
