“Growing into a young adult and figuring out my own place and worth was a transformation full of stress, mistakes, and difficult decisions. Coming to Mindful Littles at the beginning of this process helped me develop and maintain a mental composure, kindness (to myself and others), and care that has made my transformation and journey one that I am genuinely happy with, and proud of.”
