That would make my day every single day which is what made me want to become a makeup artist. You know people from different backgrounds with different needs that would come to the counter and I would give them a tip here and there then they would all leave with a smile on their faces. “The one thing I loved about that job was the connection that I had with other people. But I looked at her in the eye and I said, ‘Mom I promise you that I am going to make you proud’ and I get chills saying that because I kept that in my mind since that day my biggest wish was to do something that was going to make my mom proud,” Coelho explained on the ‘I Suck At Life’ podcast. She was devastated as she wanted me to go to college right away to secure something for my future. I’ve also been addicted to the Kérastase Genesis Hair Mask, which has been helping me strengthen and nourish some of my damaged ends while I take time off from frequently using hot hair tools.“After high school, I remember having this really hard conversation with my mom and saying to her I needed a little bit more time, at least six months, to kind of figure out a little more what I wanted to do. I recently discovered the Chill Pills from Ouai to relax your body when you take a bath – you throw one in, and it puts your whole bath experience into such a zen mode. When you stop to do a little something for yourself, it feels so good and it has a positive impact on your mental health. I love to take long baths, try new skincare products, hair products and tools, and do IG live workouts. I do so many things that help my days at home feel a bit brighter. However, right now, it’s crucial that we are having challenging and difficult conversations with our family and friends because so much of our education and behavior begins within the home. I believe that often, when you connect with loved ones, you just want to talk about the good things. It’s important now more than ever that we are having conversations about what’s going on in the world, particularly with the Black Lives Matter movement. Now, we make sure that we do Zoom video calls with my siblings and mom every week, and we chat every day on WhatsApp. Before, I would talk to my four siblings and mom over short phone calls every two weeks. It not only brings me happiness, but it allows me to go back to my roots – reminding me of the small town where I come from and that the simplest things in life are all you need to be truly happy. Spending time with my family and friends has always been a priority to me. The favorite meal I’ve been making is the traditional Brazilian dish picadinho.

Instead of buying the frozen dough for our favorite snack, Brazilian cheese bread (pão de queijo), I’m making a fresh batch of dough from scratch every week. It relaxes me, it disconnects me from the outside world and it makes me smile each time seeing my husband dig in.

I can say that cooking a meal has been the one thing that’s bringing me the most joy during quarantine. I’m cooking.Ĭooking is one of my favorite hobbies, which unfortunately I got to do so little of in the past few years. It completely changes my mood and my approach to the day. Learning meditation has really changed my life! I always listen to an episode to fall asleep at night, but now during quarantine I’ve been listening to it in the morning as well, especially on days that I’m feeling down or just not motivated. I’ve never been able to meditate by myself until I found an app called Headspace that talked me through it.

So especially now, I am taking full advantage of this time at home to really rest. I’m so grateful for my busy lifestyle, but traveling from country to country and sleeping in planes often (sometimes more than in my own bed) has made me long for a good night’s sleep.

I quickly learned that I needed more rest than my friends to maintain a healthy wellbeing. Sleeping well has been a priority for me since I was 9 years old, when I was first diagnosed with epilepsy. Donations are just another way that I can get involved, but I encourage everyone to take a stand and create change however they best can. I also made donations to both the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and Black Lives Matter. I know that this generation will make a change! In standing with this fight against inequality and historic oppression, I aim to use my platform and brand to amplify Black voices and Black creators now and forever. Peaceful protesting in Los Angeles for the Black Lives Matter movement reminded me how many people want change. I’m motivated to stand together, care, reflect, educate, and learn about the ways in which I can make a positive impact for current and future generations to come. We must apply what we’ve learned to our actions – each and every day.
