Discover The Warrior Within

THRIVE IS A 3 DAY VIRTUAL CONFERENCE AIMED TO BRING MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS, SMASH STIGMA, BUILD SUPPORT, AND PROVIDE A SPACE FOR BDSM/KINK/LEATHER FOLX TO LEARN, GROW, AND CONNECT BY MOVING THROUGH SHAME AND DISCOVERING THE WARRIOR WITHIN.

Registration

Register now to join us in April
for this amazing all virtual conference!

Registration is free but you must be registered to access the Zoom links.
Registering early helps us get an accurate count to ensure that we can accommodate everyone.

Donate

We are still free to anyone who needs financial access to the amazing event we bring to you every year! Our previous model allowed attendees to donate to individual speakers. This year, we are taking the burden off you and placing the task on our shoulders. Funds received will be divided between speakers, staff, and volunteers that opt to receive them. So EVERYONE who helps make THRIVE happen can be compensated for their labor. We suggest a donation of $5 USD per session you plan to attend or $40 USD if you plan to attend many/all of our sessions.

Are you excited about the THRIVE experience and want to help it continue? Consider donating to help PK/THRIVE continue to provide education.

(please include "THRIVE 2025" in the transaction note)
