Although code-switching may be necessary in some situations, it does not define who you are. Due to circumstances beyond our control, we will have to constantly code-switch to survive and thrive. Yes, it’s a dance, but it doesn’t dictate your rhythm. As the conductor of your own story, you are more than the character you play, the mask you wear, and the script you follow. Let this be a powerful reminder that in every space you enter, you are enough, whole, and unstoppable, the embodiment of the strength, resilience, and dreams of your ancestors. Every challenge you face is a testament to their struggles and triumphs, and their legacy flows through you, fueling your journey. Remember, your presence matters and your voice carries the echo of their story.
