You Were Never Meant to Carry This Alone.

 

Ascend is a 12-week growth experience for Christian women to realign themselves from holding everything together to living with clarity, strength, and peace.

Join the waitlist. Be the first to know when doors open.

We will not share your info with anyone. It is private and safe.

If you’re here, you’re probably the strong one.

You’re the one who:

  • Thinks about spiritual growth when others don’t
  • Feels responsible for holding things together: emotionally and spiritually
  • Keeps going, even when you’re tired, because it feels like someone has to

You don’t resent responsibility itself.
You resent carrying it alone.

And somewhere along the way, strength started to feel heavy.

This experience isn’t about stepping back from faith or responsibility.
It’s about learning how to live rightly ordered, so what you carry no longer costs you your peace.

Ascend helps you stop over-functioning and start living from a grounded, steady inner life.

What begins to change when things come back into alignment

Women don’t come into Ascend because they’re failing.
They come because something feels off even though they’re faithful.

As alignment is restored, many women notice:

  • They stop feeling responsible for everyone else’s growth
  • Their inner world becomes calmer and more grounded
  • Decision-making feels clearer and less emotionally charged
  • They lead from conviction instead of pressure
  • Peace becomes steady, not situational

Nothing about this requires you to become less committed or less faithful.
It simply helps you live properly ordered, so strength no longer feels like strain.

This is what happens when responsibility is carried from the right place.

What Ascend is, and isn't:

Ascend is not a place to vent, fix other people, or look for quick relief.

It’s not therapy.
It’s not a support group.
And it’s not about doing more to prove your faith.

Ascend is a growth experience for women who are willing to:

  • Take responsibility for their inner life
  • Be honest about patterns that aren’t working
  • Let God reorder how they carry responsibility
  • Grow slowly, deeply, and intentionally

This experience works best for women who are ready to participate, reflect, and apply what they’re learning, not just consume content.

Ascend is a good fit if you:

  • Are serious about your faith, but feel tired.
  • Often feel responsible for holding things together, emotionally or spiritually
  • Want growth that goes deeper than inspiration or information
  • Are willing to look honestly at your inner life.
  • Desire peace that doesn’t depend on circumstances changing

Ascend may not be a good fit if you:

  • Want quick fixes or surface-level encouragement
  • Are looking to process without applying
  • Expect others to change instead of focusing on your own formation
  • Aren’t ready to invest time and attention into growth

This isn’t about judgment, it’s about fit.

Ascend is for women who are ready to grow, not  be rescued.

A steady rhythm for real growth

Ascend unfolds over 12 weeks so change has time to take root.

Each week includes:

  • A focused teaching to bring clarity and direction
  • Space for reflection and application
  • A live group gathering to process, pray, and integrate

The rhythm is intentional: deep enough to bring growth, steady enough to fit real life.

You won’t be rushed.
You won’t be left alone to figure it out.
And you won’t be asked to carry more than you’re ready for.

Growth happens over time and this space honors that.

Practice Presence, Carry Peace.

Ascend is for women who are learning to practice presence, carry peace, and steward responsibility beyond themselves.

Ascend is led by Diana Bigham.

Diana is a Christian counselor, coach, and spiritual guide who has spent over 19 years walking with women through emotional healing, spiritual wisdom, and relational growth.

Her work is grounded in Scripture, shaped by clinical wisdom, and informed by years of seeing the same pattern repeat:
faithful women carrying more than they were meant to...often silently, often alone.

Diana's heart burns to see more women come into their full identity as daughters of the King. She longed for spiritual mentors in her own life and the Lord told her to become what she has prayed for.

Ascend was created as a space for deep, steady rhythm where growth is taken seriously, God is trusted fully, and women are supported as they realign their inner lives with truth.

Diana’s role isn’t to fix you, but to help guide you as God does the forming.

Mara

Ascend was an absolute encouragement to be a part of! Diana imparted her wisdom and it was a pleasure meeting and interacting on a deeper spiritual level with the other women in the group.

If you are looking to grow, to laugh, to learn more about yourself and our heavenly Father, to find a safe and supportive place, and to be permeated in truth for godly kingdom living, this mentorship program is for you!

Lindsay

I have been in ministry leadership for my entire adult life, and I didn't have a lot of opportunity to receive ministry myself. I always felt like I needed to "be on" for the sake of others, and never felt the freedom to allow my own hurt to show.

My time with Diana gave me a framework with which I could apply in my own time with the Lord. I experienced release through forgiveness in my session with Diana that gave me freedom to move forward differently than before.
