Believe me when I say the Thistle Farms experience is powerful. Truly powerful. I went a few years back and experienced what the brand stands for in person. Ok, fine... you got me. I wanted to cry...like... the whole time I was there. Not tears of sadness, but tears of awe.
The Thistle Farms website reads: "Love is the most powerful force for change in the world. It lights the way for physical, mental, and economic freedom for women who have survived childhood trauma, unjust systems, the commodifying of their worth, and believing their past defines their future."
I love Thistle Farms, I love the brand story, and I love all the good Thistle Farms brings to this world. I loved hearing Dorris' story, and I hope you do too.
