How to Talk to Children About Their Bodies, Consent, and Boundaries — with Dr. Angela Tan

How to Talk to Children About Their Bodies, Consent, and Boundaries — with Dr. Angela Tan

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Angela Tan about how to talk to children and young people about their bodies, consent, personal boundaries, and safety. It’s an honest, respectful, and practical conversation to help parents, teachers, and anyone working with children feel more confident navigating these tough — but essential — topics. Because if we don’t talk to them, someone else will… and that person may not have their best interests at heart.


Dr. Angela Tan is a family physician, sexual wellness specialist, and Medical Director of Reiwa Health, with over 16 years of experience in both medical practice and professional coaching.


As a parent herself, Angela understands the emotional complexities of raising tweens and teens. She has conducted sex education workshops in schools and coached parents on how to talk about growing bodies, emotions, and relationships with confidence and care.


Her work goes beyond information-sharing—Angela helps parents build trust and emotional safety through vulnerability, so they can stay connected to their children through every stage of adolescence. She believes that meaningful sex education starts with honest conversations at home, where kids feel seen, safe, and supported.
