where shame ends and your real story begins
We help young women break free from silence, trauma, and lies—restoring their identity through the hope in Jesus.
Too many young women are silently burdened by pain, anxiety, and sexual shame that distorts their sense of identity and disconnects them from God’s truth.
We disrupt cycles of shame and silence with lessons from both Scripture and personal experience. Our speaking engagements ignite hope, and one-on-one mentorship provides personalized, ongoing support for lasting change.
increased hope
Hearing personal and Biblical examples of overcoming hardship inspires hope that healing is achievable [7]
a Christ-centered life
Discipleship anchors people in who they are in Christ rather in in their past wounds, failures, or fears
reduced Shame & isolation
Knowing others have walked similar paths helps people feel less alone and normalizes the struggle [8]
Less depression
Healthy spiritual support reduces the severity of depression and promotes faster remission from depression [9]
Spiritual Generations
Discipled individuals are better equipped to mentor others, creating a ripple effect of transformation
