In this powerful episode of the Creative Junk Podcast, host Kayla Spelling sits down with Lindsey Falcon and Lauren Bailey, co-founders of Thrive Empowerment Center, a trauma-informed self-defense and empowerment organization based in Northern Kentucky.

Thrive isn’t your average self-defense space—it’s a bold, inclusive, and heart-centered movement rooted in healing, community, and reclaiming personal power. Lindsey and Lauren share how their approach blends trauma awareness with physical training, giving people the tools to protect themselves while rebuilding confidence from the inside out.

We talk about the importance of creating safe, affirming spaces, how empowerment shows up creatively, and what it means to thrive—not just survive.

✨ Plus, when you purchase the Athena candle from Wicked Obscura, 15% of your order goes directly toward supporting Thrive’s life-changing programs.
