Identity is not something you figure out overnight. It grows, shifts, and evolves as we learn more about ourselves and the world around us. In this episode of Let The Children Speak, youth ages 12–17 share what identity means to them, how labels affect their self-worth, and why it is okay to still be figuring things out. This is a safe space where voices are respected, curiosity is welcomed, and every story matters.
