About this Episode
Karen O’Dougherty is the creator, owner and teacher of Body Basics and Beyond which for 20 years has been providing confidence and puberty education for girls and the grownups who raise them. She offers after school programs for grades 4-8 and Teen Village, monthly talking circles for teenagers.
A retired elementary school teacher and the mother of 3 adult children, Karen holds a heartfelt belief that all youth deserve to learn about puberty and adolescence in an environment that grows their confidence. She wants to see the next generation of leaders rise with the confidence, empathy, and poise to meet what lies ahead of them. In order for this to happen, she maintains that youth need to understand their bodies, their emotional selves and the influences that may challenge who they are becoming.
Karen believes that parent education is an essential piece in preparation for adolescence, and to aid parents she provides confidence and support through one-on-one coaching and group sessions.
