After years of bullying, I started making bracelets in college for myself and my sorority sisters. The wearable affirmations reminded us of our worth, and got us through the tough times together. Ten years and millions of bracelets later, the Little Words Projectâ„¢ community is living proof that kindness is a superpower. Thanks so much for being here, and remember: just be nice.
