Claudia is so grateful and very excited to have her story published in a chapter in this amazing book - Change Makers Volume 4. So honoured to have worked with the publisher Emma Hamlin from Change Makers Press on this inspiring project.

I wanted a way to teach my children how they should talk about how they feel whether that be with me or another safe person, I also want to understand if they are perhaps feeling something and just not telling me. After chatting with Claudia from Shining Light I decided to invest in the beautiful worry dolls to start that process. My daughter has already started telling the doll how she feels from bad dreams to the days she has had at school and in turn has started relaying back to me what she is telling “her doll”.

We also spend some time together, whenever we can, going through the affirmation cards, she loves the pictures and bright colours and she loves picking one that she feels most closest to for the day.

Thanks Shining Light for helping start this open emotion-led conversation journey with my children.
