Serving Others and Making a Difference 💙

The Grit & Grace Indy Chapter had the opportunity to partner with the Diabetes Youth Foundation to help prepare for an incredible summer camp experience for kids living with Type 1 Diabetes. From building welcome kits and preparing cabins to learning how we can better support those managing T1D, it was a day filled with service, education, and heart.

We’re grateful for the chance to help create a place where hundreds of kids from across the Midwest can feel supported, understood, and empowered.

Faith. Family. Freedom. 🇺🇸

This Memorial Day, we’re reminded that the freedoms we cherish - the freedom to lead with courage, live out our faith, and pursue the lives God has called us to - were made possible by the brave men and women who sacrificed for our country.

Today we honor those heroes with grateful hearts.

We are so proud of our Grit & Grace girls for so beautifully exemplifying the patriotic spirit that makes our nation strong.❤️

“I still get nervous, but now, I won’t let fear control me.”

That’s the kind of courage Cora Keller is walking out every day. Meet our 2026–27 MIDDLE SCHOOL Grit & Grace Student Ambassador! 🩵🏆

In her submission video, Cora shares how she’s faced struggles with confidence and social anxiety, but chose not to stay there. Equipped with her faith and the tools she’s learned through Grit & Grace Leadership Academy, she bravely stepped out to start a girls Bible study at her school. She has seen God move through her school and in the lives of the girls showing up because she said yes.

Cora plans to use her scholarship to grow that Bible study and invest in her future education, and we couldn’t be more proud of the leader she’s becoming. Congratulations, Cora!! 🎉

We’re closing out our 2025/2026 Leadership Academy season in the best way. 🩵

This Monday’s Dream Big is all about Entrepreneurial Leadership, and we have two incredible women joining us to lead the conversation: Stacy James and Cindy Williams.

Stacy James and Cindy Williams began building their own direct sales business with Mary Kay in their twenties. Through the process of growing their independent, multimillion dollar global organizations, they learned what it took to Authentically Seek God first, lead from the heart and develop deep relationships that have spanned over 45 years.

Together they have traveled to over 28 countries teaching, training and equipping other women to build their successful lives through entrepreneurial leadership!

And for our young ladies, this one is especially meaningful. Stacy isn’t just a guest speaker…she’s one of our Leadership Academy leaders!! Getting to hear her share her own journey in this way is extra special.

We can’t think of a better way to wrap up this season. See you Monday. ✨

Boots, bling, and unforgettable memories. 🤩✨

What a night!!!

Our Grit & Grace community came together in Naples, Florida last month for an unforgettable evening. From golf challenges, cheering on the mechanical bull riders alongside champions, to connecting with friends old and new, every moment reminded us why this community is so special.

Boots & Bling is about more than just a great party at the beautiful Talis Park. It’s a chance to about bring people together who believe in investing in the next generation of young women. Because of this amazing community, we’re able to continue building programs that help girls grow in confidence, character, and leadership.

We’re so grateful for every person who showed up and celebrated with us. Nights like this remind us just how special the Grit & Grace family really is. 🩵✨

Next week’s Grit & Grace Leadership Academy Speaker is the real deal. GET EXCITED!! 🩵

Amanda Radke is a fifth-generation rancher, entrepreneur, podcast host, children’s book author, and fierce advocate for family farms and ranches across America. Alongside her husband and four kids, she runs Radke Land & Cattle in South Dakota…and somehow still finds time to fight for the freedoms that keep this nation fed.

Girls, get ready to hear from a woman who leads with conviction, works with grit, and stands boldly for what she believes in. This one is going to challenge you to think bigger about your purpose and the impact you can have right where you are. ⚡️
