Early brain development shapes not only how a woman thinks and feels but also how she builds relationships and maintains her health throughout life.
Dr. Quianta Moore returns to the share how the idea that the interactions and support children receive, especially from caregivers, form the brain’s architecture. Without consistent nurturing, families may face long-term impacts on confidence and even physical well-being. Her insights drive home the importance of early intervention and strong community support for women and families.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
