To The Girl I Was

"To The Girl I Was"
We asked a group of women to share with us their life experiences and answer one question: “If you could tell your younger self anything, what would you say to her?”

In “To the Girl I Was,” these women reflect on their pasts and remind us of the strength that comes from overcoming hardships and rising to the challenges we face in life.

Crying ... really needed this, thank you.

You should make one where men talk do the same thing. The difference of perspective and the things that men know the younger versions of them selves would need to hear would be very telling on some of the issues that men have to face as they grow up.

To each and every one of these ladies, a big THANKYOU!💕💕

[mashNYproductionsInc]

Congrats on a beautiful and moving video!

[lacarbajal]

Beautiful video! But you didn't include anything from the woman who spoke at 0:32 seconds in the second question. I would've like to see her answer as well!
