We live in a world with access to everything. We can research any product, person, or brand. Information is available at our fingertips. Yet, somehow, students feel more isolated than ever before.
The questions become: what did we trade to make space for the advancements to technology and the emergence of social media? And how can we help today’s youth navigate life in a modern world?
As social media use among teens has risen to 95%, so have reports of anxiety and depression. The second leading cause of death among adolescents is suicide and self-harm.
In the Spring of 2024, Loodor launched the “HOO Are You?” education platform to reach Texas schools and students through general assembly presentations and roundtable discussions. The purpose of the tour is to address issues including mental well-being and cyberbullying, while working to reduce suicide rates among teens.
By engaging students in real conversations, Summer strives to offset the effects of social media. Summer tours schools to reinforce connection and spotlight the power of words.
We all seek connection, but what does it mean to seek? Summer speaks to the four pillars that provide the foundation for real connection: Self-worth, Existence, Empathy, and Kindness.
While on tour, Summer often shares her own personal experiences with social anxiety, as well as her background with a 25-year career in national media, publishing, marketing, and storytelling. Students relate to her stories. They are also excited to hear first-hand about character symbolism from the bestselling author.
Many students have spoken to Summer about the commonality of self-harm and the online comments that encourage it. At a school in Texas Region 8, a high school freshman suggested a phone line to provide continuous support.

The Loodor Tales Series takes readers of all ages inside the fantasy world of Grey the Kitten and her animal friends. Filled with fun and important life lessons to instill self-worth and support mental well-being, the bestselling series starts at Black Mountain Farm (BMF), where Grey is born.
From the very beginning, Grey knows she’s meant to become more than a barn cat. But in Grey’s wildest dreams, she never could have guessed that her journey would take her from the farm to a high-rise building in the city of Chaos, and from Chaos through an underground passageway in a Subterranean Earth and Animal Tunnel (SEAT).
With each journey, Grey faces new challenges, but her overarching search to discover “HOO” she is and how she can help others has always remained the guidepost for reaching her goals.
The world has changed. The stakes are higher, and the consequences of her choices run deeper than ever before. Because now, Grey and her friends must make sacrifices to succeed. They must trade what they value most to have
any hope of victory.
So, how does one decide what should and should not be traded in the name of reaching their destiny? The Loodor Tales Series answers this question, and more. Books prompt conversation about the challenges today’s youth face in a modern world.
Grey represents the balance of becoming your best self while striving to achieve collective success. Words can build things or break them. Therein lies the magic of our voice.
