🛡️ Little Hinges Swing Big Doors – Kid’s Version

🕒 Episode Length: 19 minutes 28 seconds

What do ships, superheroes, and your own life have in common? You’re stronger than you think—and the little things you do every day build big power.

In this episode of Capes & Conversations, we break down what it really means to stay afloat, even when life feels heavy. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by bullies, pressure, or school, this conversation reminds you that YOU are in charge of your journey—and the ship only sinks if you let the water in.

💥 In this episode, we talk about:
✨ How to deal with bullies or people who try to bring you down.
✨ Why comparison steals your joy—and what to do instead.
✨ How small actions like brushing your teeth or practicing art every day can create HUGE changes.
✨ Lessons from Luisa in Encanto, Mulan, Harry Potter, and Spider-Man.
✨ The power of consistency, resilience, and never giving up—especially when it’s hard.

💡 Key Takeaway:
You don’t have to do everything at once—just take the next right step. Be consistent. Stay true to yourself. And remember: even if someone says something unkind, you don’t have to accept it. That gift only becomes yours if you open it.
