If you're a woman business owner over 40, join the Dear FoundHer... Forum to find support, advice, resources and mentorship—JUST FOR YOU. It’s all inside, without the gatekeeping and without the overwhelm.
Building a real business became possible for Dr. Lisa Klein when she stopped trying to do everything alone and chose to grow inside a community of women who understood the work.
Lindsay Pinchuk talks with pediatrician and Turning Teen founder Dr. Lisa Klein about how a deeply personal idea grew into a legitimate business with national reach. Turning Teen began as a response to a need Dr. Klein saw in her medical practice, parents who wanted support talking with their kids about puberty, body image, emotions, and sex education but did not know where to start. What began as small workshops in living rooms evolved into structured programming for schools, community groups, and families across multiple cities.
Dr. Klein shares how joining the Dear Found Her Forum and participating in Marketing Made Simple helped her move from treating Turning Teen as a side project to running it as a real business. Being surrounded by other women builders gave her clarity, accountability, and confidence as she learned marketing, partnerships, hiring, and systems. How different does growth feel when you are not figuring it out alone?
The conversation points out how community relationships turned into real opportunities, from strategic partnerships to new offerings and large scale events. Dr. Klein’s story is a reminder that sustainable growth often comes from shared experience, steady action, and the right people in your corner.
