Dear Mixed Girl,
If you are a mixed girl that comes from a difficult family setting or maybe your parents didn’t stay together for whatever reason, you are not alone.
Understand that what your parents went through is not your fault nor does it define you.
How your family may treat you has nothing to do with you.
Every person makes a choice to be who they are and design the life that they want the life that they lead; the same is true for your parents and your family.
Far too often people may take their feelings or problems out on you, but you can’t let that become a part of your identity.
You are in charge of the direction of your life.
You get to decide how your life looks now and in the future.
No amount of dysfunction from your parents or family can change who you are inside unless you allow it to.
Remember, this is your life.
Pick up the pen and paper and start writing your book of life, and don’t forget that you get to choose what the story is and will be.
-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.
