- Write a letter to “Little You”!: This could be a letter of apology or a letter of support. Maybe you haven’t been saying the nicest things to yourself. Can you envision your struggles now through the lens of being a little kid again? What would you tell that little kid in the face of struggle?
- “Reparenting” Little You!: Parents wouldn’t buy you a pony? Now’s your chance! But seriously, now is your chance to design something you feel you should’ve received but didn’t get. What would that look like? What are you going to do? ( 1 point )
