Mentors

Half the battle of holy hellions -people of faith with a penchant for saucy, feminist rebellion – is finding a tribe who won’t ask them to pick sides. And it starts with mentors who prove that neither affinity – faith or feminism – must prove victorious. Conservative, liberal, Christian, unorthodox, these women are fierce warriors.
