Summary
In this episode, Sarah sits down with Dr. Tara Berner to discuss the importance of educating young women about their biology: their cycles, their hormonal health, and their anatomy. They emphasize the need for parents to have these conversations with their children and encourage seeing the discussion of these topics as a series of conversations, not just as "the talk." Together, they discuss why technology cannot replace the role of a trusted adult and also highlight the significance of understanding how hormonal changes affect a woman's mental health. At the end of this episode, they suggest resources for parents to navigate these topics with their children.
