Tender at Heart
A Legacy of Empowerment and Support
The Tender at Heart Mentorship Program was founded 12 years ago in the vibrant city of Tyler, Texas. It all began with a simple, yet powerful vision: to create a holistic environment where women could meet weekly to support each other, communicate openly, and grow together. As a young girl, I often perceived women as not being supportive of one another. This observation planted a seed of passion within me—a desire to change this narrative and foster a community where women could truly uplift and empower each other. Over time, I came to understand that the right synergy of women, united by purpose and commitment, could transform lives.
