Resilient Minds How personalized support builds women’s brain resilience

Bob Gold explores how a groundbreaking maternal brain health program uses personalized, science- based tools to help mothers worldwide build cognitive resilience, restore balance, and strengthen families.

A cross the globe, women are increasingly called upon to anchor their families through waves of change and adversity. From daily responsibilities to global crises, including pandemics, economic instability, geopolitical unrest, and the rise of youth mental health challenges, the emotional load carried by women, specifically mothers, has never been greater. Yet amid this complexity, women’s brain health often remains an overlooked priority. Women’s brain health is about more than managing stress or avoiding illness; it is the foundation for cognitive clarity, emotional stability, and resilience. Research shows that chronic, unrelieved stress can reshape brain function in ways that make it harder for women to think clearly, regulate emotions, and stay connected to purpose and meaning. In short, when the woman’s brain is overwhelmed, it’s not just they who suffer; entire families and communities are affected.

This urgent reality inspired GoMo Health and the Center for BrainHealth® at The University of Texas at Dallas to collaborate on a groundbreaking maternal brain health program as part of the GoMo Health Women, Children, and Families Engagement Hub. Delivered digitally and personalized through the application of BehavioralRx®, the GoMo Health proprietary behavioral and cognitive science of precision health, the program has demonstrated increases in human resiliency and improvements in patient health outcomes. This initiative offers evidence-based tools that help mothers around the world strengthen their cognitive and emotional health, especially in times of crisis. Why women’s brain health matters now more than ever Before the COVID-19 pandemic, studies estimated that a significant number of expectant mothers worldwide faced mental health challenges. Nearly one in three pregnant women reported moderate to high levels of anxiety.
