A few girls reached out and asked if I could talk about moving, like moving to a new school, a new house, or a new city. So for every girl who’s dealing with a move, I hope this helps.

This is a big change. It’s okay you’re not okay with it; feel that. Accept what you can’t control, and do something about the things you can. The thing is, you’re not always going to be the new girl. Eventually, this will get more familiar and you’ll know your way around. You just might like it better than before. Sooner than later, I hope you start to feel more at home.

- Leave behind judging yourself and others, and use curiosity.
- Leave behind criticism, treat yourself like a good friend, and give yourself compassion.
- Leave behind doubt and comparison, and have confidence in yourself.
