Keynote Speakers - Dr. Cara Natterson and Vanessa Kroll Bennett

The authors of “This is So Awkward: Modern Puberty Explained” are such big fans of AMAZE that they were delighted to keynote our SexEdCon 2024. They talk to hundreds of Sex Educators across the country about their Less Awkward resources, and how to “know more so you cringe less.”

In this video, Dr. Cara Natterson and Vanessa Kroll Bennett provide updated data to help redefine puberty (hint: it’s starting earlier and lasting longer), empower viewers with concrete ways into conversations, review some commonly asked questions (just wait for the section on “bacteria farts” at the 22 minute mark), and discuss how to handle mood swings. Parents and educators alike will find the insights in their presentation incredibly valuable as you seek to provide honest, inclusive, and useful sexual health information to young people.
