Isn’t it special to have friends and acquaintances from different and similar cultural backgrounds who love, appreciate, and understand you?
There is something so wonderful about being yourself around a small group of people and knowing that you do not have to pretend to be something other than yourself.
It is a unique feeling to be amongst people that understand your struggles, identity, and what makes you who you are.
Know that when you can be amongst others who will not judge you or make you out to be something different than whom your heart and soul present you to be.
While there may be days, months, or even years when you are trying to find your unique group of friends or acquaintances, it is essential to learn from the difficulties and bumps in the road along the way.
Learning your worth, what makes you happy, and knowing the spaces in which you can freely be yourself are all valuable to lead a life that you love.
You can paint the picture of the life that you want, including your friends, acquaintances, and the spaces you will be in, with all of the colors that make your heart happy.
Life can be big and beautiful while your tribe of people may be small, but the love and feeling of freedom that you can get when you live your life through the vision that makes you happy will show you that everything will fall into place and you will always have your joy intact.
-Dr. KayLa N. Allen’s “Dear Mixed Girl” Letters
Letter Entitled “Friendship In Colors”
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. Other 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.
