Chili Millie's First SEA Adventure is a modern fable about courage, connection, and self-discovery. Narrated by the bold and spirited adult Chili Millie, the story begins on the day her tribe lovingly sends her into the sea to find a new home. Guided by a vibrant cast of sea creatures, Chili Millie makes her way to Harmony Island-encountering unexpected challenges, new friendships, and five affirmations that help transform fear into hope.

As a metaphor for life's transitions, Chili Millie's journey reveals the power of relationships and mindset in navigating change.
