Ever felt like you had to change how you speak, act, or express yourself depending on the people around you? That’s code-switching—a survival skill for some, a choice for others, and often an unspoken burden.

🧠 Why does it matter?

• For others, it’s a means to feel accepted or safe in different environments.

✨ Let’s create spaces where everyone feels empowered to be their authentic selves. How do you experience or observe code-switching in your life? Share your thoughts below! ⬇️
