Empowering you to disciple and equip your girls through puberty in a Godly fashion
Who We Are
We are Tanisha Cross & Bethany Thompson; two moms on a mission to disciple our children well! We are both professional, work from home moms. In her 12 years of parenting, Tanisha has juggled two kids and an event planning business while Bethany has juggled two kids, was formerly in marketing for a Christian entertainment company and more recently worked for a church in HR & Operations.
We love our husbands, love our 12 year old boys and 10 year old girls, strive to be supportive and loving friends to those around us, and want to make the most out of our time on this earth.
Our Journey
One day, our girls were riding imaginary horses; full of laughter, a sparkle in their eyes, unaware of those around them not participating in their magical world. In a blink they were 9; experts on teenage fashion, asking to go bra shopping and in need of daily deodorant. We found ourselves thrown into a new season of our girls experiencing emotional dysregulation and asking deep questions whose answers, we knew, would be pivotal in establishing their self-view.
During an impromptu hike in our backyard of the PNW, with our daughters in tow, we got into a deep discussion about the lack of resources we were finding on facing puberty through a Biblical lens. Most of our friends were recommending resources that addressed puberty from a worldly perspective. While they provided great information on body changes and hormonal fluctuations, so many of them addressed puberty as a sexual awakening. Even Websters Dictionary defines puberty as “the period of first becoming capable of reproducing sexually.” We believe that puberty is SO MUCH more than that, and that we, and our girls, are SO MUCH more than sexual creatures. Puberty is a period of time when we are coming more fully into who God created us to be and how He formed us.
That hike transformed into a year long deep dive into what the Bible says about women as image bearers of God, and what resources and products are out there for our girls to use as they go through puberty. With a sad lack of menstrual products that are environmentally friendly and don’t contain hormone disruptors, we are now on a journey of manufacturing our own! Stay tuned!
Picked with care
We strive to provide you with products that are good for the environment and good for your body: free of toxic chemicals that take years to breakdown or disrupt hormones. Currently in the US, most menstrual products that are sold as ‘organic’ truly only have an organic top layer. While we are on a mission to change this, we are accepting our current reality and doing the best to recommend only the best and purest products we can find!
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
