March 2025

By Ruby, Bridget, Tanah

Words have power. Whether online or in person, the way we communicate can uplift or hurt others. Watch Your Words encourages kindness by turning positive communication into a rewarding experience.

This innovative watch detects the language you use and provides positive affirmations when you express kindness. If you’re unsure what to say, it suggests encouraging words instead of something negative.

To start with, the team will create stickers, keychains, and phone cases featuring sentence starters and kindness prompts, making it easier to practice positive interactions every day.
