Are Entertainers Narcissists?

Photo by Vidar Nordli-Mathisen on Unsplash Whenever I post pictures or videos of myself on social media, the question comes up "are you seeking attention?" -- sometimes from myself and other times from close family members. I am sure it comes from those not so close as well. I have come to make peace with this issue. I am an entertainer. I love to be in the spotlight. There is much gratification that comes from putting on a performance. Is this narcissistic? I think all of us have some level of narcissism within us.  View this post on Instagram A post shared by Cianna Lulu Coelho ..read more

I've been meaning to share with you all since the last blog post: Why I am No Longer a Christian. I had even started to write my responses and then didn't save the draft! Oh well! Part of the process. As you can see I started this blog post on 2/29/2020 ... today it's 4/06/2020, and we are in the midst of the corona virus pandemic. Anyways, I digress. I am going to respond to some of the questions asked of me in response to my last post. ​First, to my handful of friends who responded positively and support me in my new way of living, thank you! 1st response: "All I can say is that I wis ..read more

Why I Stopped Going To Church Photo by unsplash-logo John Price Let me start out by saying that this blog post is NOT meant to BASH anyone or make fun of any organizations.  I have thought long and hard about writing this post. Many have questioned my spiritual beliefs and some have been shocked by my shift from Christianity. I also want to say that I am so grateful for those who are Christians and have loved me and shown me grace throughout my journey. This post is going to disappoint a lot of you. This is NOT MY INTENTION. Some of you will actually congratulate me for being true t ..read more

Traveling through the Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway Photo by me, unsplash-logo Lucianna Coelho Ever feel like you just need to get away? Like you're going to go crazy if you don't put some time aside for JUST YOU? Well, that's what happened to me! Life happens. We get overwhelmed by daily life requirements - chores, the job (or jobs), kids, bills, taxes, cats, dogs, blogs ... blah blah blah ... GIVE ME A . FREAKING . BREAK! Ha ha! Can you feel the intensity? That's how bad I needed to get out of my comfort zone and go connect with nature. By getting away, I was able to be with my tho ..read more

WHAT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY IN A RELATIONSHIP? Photo by Andre Mouton on Unsplash ***Warning: the following post includes F-bombs and such. How Relationships Mirror Inner Turmoil A friend of mine asked me — what is the difference between: The responsibility of ‘making people’ feel safe in a relationship … and The responsibility of ‘creating a space‘ where people feel safe? I live by the concept of the latter: "it is necessary to create a space where people feel safe" -- not, it is "my responsibility to make someone feel safe in a relationship".  Apparently I had not made them feel saf ..read more

HOW TO RELEASE ANCESTRAL TRAUMA

Lately I've been drawn to shamanism in a very deep way. When I say lately, I mean -- the last two to three years. Photo by Cristian Newman on Unsplash What is Shamanism? It's an ancient way of life practiced by many cultures all over the world. It goes back thousands of years. ​To me, shamanism means: connecting and being in communion with our source (which includes nature, animals etc.); basically encompassing the unseen aspect of what drives life. I remember being about 14 - 16 years of age and being a "New Born-Again Christian" and being somewhat drawn to shamanism, even though I ..read more

WHAT TO DO WHEN AN IGUANA GETS STUCK We moved to this beautiful townhouse on a lake. I immediately fell in love with this place and knew this is where I would be happy. The universe opened up the way and boom! The kids and dogs love jumping off the dock and swimming in the refreshing cool water.  No, there are no alligators - the lake is man made from a quarry and has no canals linking the lake to the everglades. Anyways, iguanas love to spend time on the deck lazing in the sunshine and then taking a cool dip into the lake etc.  Our dog Bella also loves to do ..read more

DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY It's been a while! No worries ... everything happens at the right time. This song - "what's up" by Four Non Blondes has always had such a profound effect on me. I can truly relate and emote it because it speaks about out our society and life.  That's the not the reason for this blog post. This post is about "doing what you love". The last few months have been very emotional for me - going through the dermoid cyst situation followed by the ovary removal surgery and then recovering after that. One of my greatest loves is singing! After surgery, I had to regain ..read more
