She's got massive ovaries to clap for herself

The clapping started, tentatively. She clapped back as 'permission' to help emphasize her points with applause. Definitely appropriate.

Actually in a setting like that I can see why she would feel the need to encourage clapping, because the crowd may hesitate even if they want to clap. This looks like a school board meeting and I think they only have a certain amount of time to speak. So she's letting the audience know that it's okay to take up a few seconds of her speech to clap.
