Our Why

We’re not here to chase clicks or keep girls scrolling. We’re here to help every girl believe in her worth and grow into her potential. That starts with one steady person in her corner: a mentor who helps her build resilience and see past the pressure to have it all together.

This isn’t just an app. It’s real change for the next generation of girls.

Our Values

Trust

Trust starts small: honest relationships, built to last.

Connection

A community rooted in shared interests, not likes and followers.

Care

Support that helps every member feel valued and grow with confidence.

Meet the Founders

Cindy Abel

Cindy Abel

CEO & Founder

Cindy built her career as a consultant before founding and successfully growing her own IT consulting firm. As a mom of three, she watched cyberbullying, exclusion, and body image pressure take a toll on her kids and their friends. That experience became Vescent: a safe space where teen girls feel heard, build confidence, and grow the resilience to navigate life’s challenges.

Lauren spent 15+ years building digital products in the corporate world before choosing to put that experience toward mission-driven work. As a mom of two, she has seen firsthand how bullying and social pressure affect kids. It drives her focus on early prevention to build a generation of empathetic, confident, and resilient young people.

Our Commitment to Privacy & Safety

Vescent is built for girls ages 13 and up, with privacy and safety at the center. We take applicable privacy laws seriously and handle every family’s information with care. Every interaction on the platform is monitored by trained mentors and staff, and families are always in control of their data.
