Each participant has also personalized one of Sophia’s signature ‘Speech Bubble’ Charms with an uplifting mantra or personal quote. These charms of wisdom are attached to the ‘Claudie’ bag, and a souvenir, unique to each participant and their location, is also included inside of the bag” the brand revealed in a statement on the website.
