Thorns & Roses Society
A Grounded, Faith-Safe Space for Teen Girls to Grow
The Thorns & Roses Society is a supportive and empowering 10-week group for middle and high school girls who feel overwhelmed by life and are ready for real emotional, spiritual, and personal growth.
This cohort provides a nurturing environment for girls to build emotional regulation skills, explore identity, form healthy friendships, create boundaries, and safely navigate faith-related questions, reminding them that saying “I’m good” is not a personality trait.
