Puberty is a gradual process but the questions and big feelings can appear before you feel ready.
Â
NAVIGATING PUBERTY WORKSHOP
This hands‑on, half‑day mom and tween daughter workshop is designed to help you slow things down, build understanding together, and create a shared foundation of trust and confidence as your daughter enters this new phase of life.
In a warm, supportive, and age‑appropriate environment, Dr. Tara Rawana will guide you through what’s happening in her body, what’s happening with her emotions, and how the two of you can navigate it all as a team.
What We’ll Cover
Together, we’ll walk through all 5 stages of female puberty, so nothing feels mysterious or scary, so both of you know what to expect over the coming years.
MOOD CHANGES IN PUBERTY
Plus how your daughter can communicate her needs and support herself when big feelings show up
PHYSICAL CHANGES
Like breast development, pubic hair, and vaginal discharge. We’ll differentiate between what’s normal and what’s common
PERIODS
Including a hands‑on, shame‑free introduction to pads, tampons, period underwear, and menstrual cups so girls can explore and get comfortable before they need them
LEARNING TO TRUST HERSELF
Tune into her body, create personal values and make decisions that feel good as she grows
