Team I Spy

" I wish I had known this when I was younger"

The line that brought us together

The above line has crossed almost all our minds at some point of time or the other. 

I Spy Hope was born out of a collective realisation that understanding EMOTIONS and taking care ones emotional wellbeing was paramount in all walks of life. No matter what field you may be, without being able to understand and regulate your emotions, conflict resolution skills and having effective social communication skills, none of our talents would matter.

The founders were brought together with the common goal. There are many times in life we may feel, “I wish I had known this earlier.” That’s where I Spy Hope comes in. We want to start as early as childhood.
