I would cbet less, like 1/2 PSB. She's most likely either calling any reasonable bet or she's not, so lets do this for as cheap as possible.
Next time, try not to include results as it will skew results. I typically check back the turn when I pick up equity because I'm pretty cool with just trying to realize that equity and get paid off, plus it's hard to get people to fold. However, this is a nice scare card and it could easily be in our range, so I don't hate a bet (although I would only do 1/2 PSB so that it rarely has to work to be profitable), especially if we feel we're never getting check/raised. Again, posting the results really skews things, but obviously she is a calling station that never folds, in which case we should bet as small as possible with our whiffed flop cbets, and then shut down until we actually make a hand (where we can then take her to town).
ETA: Didn't realize we started with just $100 (30bbs); any reason for that? Have to really tighten up because we have 0 FE with this stack size.

+1 ... Missed this post. I'm pretty new to live poker even though i played a ton of hands online. So last time when i visited casino, game was super wild. So this time bought in small so that i can shove over the top of wild preflop raisers with decent hand ranges. Idea was to buyin to max later based on the table.
CO was the only limper. The reason i raised pf to just 3bb is to fold to any 3 bet from blinds easily. 1/2 psb bet seems good idea. now i think it was better to check flop and bet the turn and not to inflate the pot.
Another reason why i posted this hand is coz she turned out to be more on nit end. Her range was mostly pairs, sc, top end of broadway cards that too suited. I think people are not folding to a pair on turn when the board pairs and is putting people on bottom of there ranges.
I was so surprised that most people agreed its a call to my shove!!!
