Olympia, WA

I feel stronger inside and out.
I feel more positive about myself.
I feel like I can make a different in the world.

Another Huge Success

Our July Empowerment Camp was another huge success and so much fun! The girls enjoyed all the Guest Speakers and some of the highlights were the meditation, sound healing, art, yoga and the dancing at the end of the day. It's truly such a gift to witness the girls transform into a deeper part of themselves while creating community and sisterhood together!
