"I Know Exactly What Youâre Going Through"
âWhen your Filipino-American child comes home quiet, feeling unsure about themselves, your heart breaks a little. You want them to be proud of their heritage, but youâre not sure how to help them embrace their differences as strengths rather than sources of embarrassment.
I understand this struggle because I lived it, and more importantly, Iâve found the solution.â

IâVE BEEN THERE
âI was 4, riding my red tricycle, when a neighbor boy taunted me saying âChocolate girl!â I ran to my mother in tears. Her response changed my life: âWomen all over the world pay money to have skin like yours.â
That moment taught me something powerful: the right words at the right time can transform shame into strength. But I also learned that without those guiding words, children absorb messages that their differences make them less valuable.â
