New Beginnings
Samantha Williams
Award winning Illustrator. Author & Founder of Little Star Design Studio, passionately committed to crafting exceptional resources that build emotional resilience and support the mental wellbeing of children and parents.
Well, this year didn’t exactly go to plan! I’ve missed connecting with you all and it’s been a while since my last update, so I wanted to personally reach out and share what’s been happening behind the scenes here at Little Star Design Studio.
Life threw some unexpected twists and turns our way this year, including a house move and a series of illnesses and there were times when I genuinely thought I might have to close my company. For a few months, the website was offline and I had to put my focus on myself and my family. Looking back, I think I truly needed that time to regain balance and clarity.
This pause has allowed me to reflect on Little Star’s purpose, refine the mission and build a whole new chapter for the studio. I’m at the very beginning of this journey, but for the first time in a long time, I feel genuinely excited about the future.
Our Mission Moving Forward
At Little Star, my mission is to create resources that support children and parents’ mental wellbeing and resilience—now with an even stronger foundation in the science of emotional growth. I want to offer tools that don’t just help families navigate challenges but empower them to build lifelong resilience. Through the books, resources and upcoming products, my goal is to bring evidence-based strategies to help children thrive emotionally, together with the adults who love and support them.
A Few Changes and What’s Next
As I move into this next chapter, I’ll be taking a “quality over quantity” approach, which means switching to a monthly update instead of weekly emails. This way, each update will be packed with valuable insights, helpful content and exclusive offers. I’ve also upgraded the website to offer direct access to all my printed books, allowing me to offer better pricing and special discounts.
There are also some exciting new products in the works that I can’t wait for you to see. And perhaps the biggest shift: starting next year, I’ll be introducing in-person sessions to bring the heart of Little Star directly to local communities. It’s a chance to share this knowledge firsthand and foster connection in a new, powerful way.

My Journey Continues
I’m also thrilled to share that I’ll be stepping back into the world of academics to deepen my understanding and training in the field of mental wellness for children and families. I look forward to sharing more about this journey as it unfolds.
Thank you so much for being here, for your support, and for your patience. I can’t wait to reconnect with you in this new phase and bring you meaningful resources that reflect our shared commitment to children’s resilience and well-being. As always, feel free to hit reply—I’d love to hear from you!
Stay tuned for some exciting updates in the coming weeks!
