Girls Groups for Growing Up.
Welcome to a brave place for girls to walk across the threshold towards young adulthood. Together, we’ll cultivate wholeness through stories, songs, games, craft, nature connection in a circle of peers with the guidance of Aunties.
Our girls are crossing an essential threshold in their preteen years and they need our support to blossom.
Their bodies, brains, and social worlds are transforming. They need healthy peer relationships and spaces that are strong enough to hold their becoming. They need loving non-parent adults who model what it means to be our full selves in service to our communities. They need the timeless wisdom of how to live in connection with one another and with the natural world around them, of which they are an essential piece.
I want to create an environment for girls to thrive as they grow into young adulthood.
When you think back on your adolescence, did you have adults in your life that you could confide in? Did you have mentors modeling to you that your bleeding was beautiful? That you were allowed to take rest, focus on joy, and stay in relationship to the natural world around you as your body and soul rebuilt into a fuller sense of yourself? Most of us did not have guidance and support as we crossed from childhood to young adulthood.

Hi! I’m Kelsey Starr, University Park resident and mom to three kiddos and beloved dog. I am so excited to circle up with your kids.
I have been working as a volunteer and professionally with preteens, teens, and college-aged students for most of my adult life, running weekly events, small group mentorship, international service trips, and working within schools. I have studied women’s health through the lenses of yoga, hormones, and postpartum care. I am finishing a training with Wakeful Nature to guide girls’ groups through this season of adolescence and I can’t wait to offer our girls brave spaces in which to become their fullest selves.
