While researching a magazine article, she became fascinated by the oxytocin response, because it explained so much about her life and relationships. As she wrote "The Chemistry of Connection", she tracked research and news about oxytocin and created her blog, Hug the Monkey, which is now recognized as one of the most authoritative sources for information on oxytocin on the web.
