Embrace Kindness
A son's inspiration.
A mother's love.
This is our story.
DESGINED TO BE KIND™
EMBRACE LOVE. EMBRACE CONNECTION. EMBRACE THE DIFFERENCE®
My name is Robyn Zimmer, and I am the creator of Embrace the Difference®.This brand was born from love—my love for my son, Sam.
From an early age, Sam faced challenges, including speech delays and later a diagnosis of Asperger’s Syndrome. But what stood out most was not his struggles—it was his extraordinary ability to connect, to feel deeply, and to understand others in a way that is truly rare.
He showed me something I will never forget: What makes us different is often what makes us most beautiful.
During this journey, I came across a poem that would change everything—
"Outwitted" by Edwin Markham:
He drew a circle that shut me out—
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle that took him in.
Those words became the foundation for Embrace the Difference®.
I created a symbol—a square embraced by circles—to represent inclusion, acceptance, and belonging. At different moments in life, we are all the square in need of support… and we are all part of the circle that lifts others up.
What began as a deeply personal design grew into something much greater: A jewelry collection with purpose—created to leave the world a kinder place.
JEWELRY WITH PURPOSE
Every piece of Embrace the Difference® is Designed to be Kind™—a daily reminder that we are all connected, no matter our differences. But it’s more than something you wear.It’s something you stand for.
Since the beginning, we have donated over $1,000,000 to charitable organizations that support inclusion, compassion, and human connection.
In 2020, Embrace the Difference® was honored as a QVC Big Find, helping bring this message to a national audience.
We proudly launched our partnership with Special Olympics in 2024, followed by the Alzheimer’s Association in 2025—two organizations that embody resilience, acceptance, and community.
