Have you ever wished you could go back and speak to your younger self—the part of you that felt lost, scared, or unseen?
As I started writing to my 6th grade self—alone in a new school, sitting under a tree at lunch, wondering if something was wrong with me. What came through wasn’t just words on a page—it felt like a conversation I had been waiting to have for years. A moment of healing.
Here’s the letter I wrote to myself. Maybe it will speak to a part of you too.
