Dear Mixed Girl,
Do you ever stop and ask yourself, “Really, who am I?”
That question can be so painful and confusing.
It’s equally difficult to be true to the answer.
One of the most important things for your life is that you understand that only you know the real you.
People may question or doubt your identity, but you’re in charge of who you are.
Love every part of who you are, even that which people don’t understand.
You are wonderful inside and out.
Live in the greatness and love that is you.
Keep your heart intact, weirdness present, joy in your smile, and power in your walk.
You shape your place in the world and all that you do by being true to your core identity.
There is no one nor anything better than being you.
If you ever forget who you are, embrace your reflection.
-Dr. KayLa N. Allen’s “Dear Mixed Girl” Letters
The “Dear Mixed Girl” letters are a series from Dr. KayLa N. Allen that share experiences, motivation, and compassion. These letters are linked to the “Dear Mixed Girl, What is Your Identity?” coaching program. Related messaging that Dr. KayLa creates is to re-shape the way that mixed girls and women think about themselves and how they contribute to the world by being themselves.
No “mixed” experience is the same, but many parts of the biracial/multi-ethnic experience are similar. It is in these similarities that we can find individuals truths and ways in which we can become the best version of ourselves regardless of what the world may show us.
Dr. KayLa N. Allen’s greatest hope is to share with others her truth and what lives inside of her so that there can be sustainable changes and powerful impact in those living the life of a “mixed” girl. If you or the mixed girl in your life felt the impact of this letter, read more empowering messages and find out how you can transform yourself, be proud of who you are, and lead a unique and joyful life via Dr. KayLa N. Allen’s coaching programs.
