  • Allow Your Heart To Be Broken

    Several years ago, I stumbled upon a blog post about a mother explaining to her daughter that she had permission to break her heart – because that’s really what happens when you love someone: you open yourself to that possibility. A broken heart. And I think about that a lot. I’ve always felt things deeply.…

  • Diga-me com quem andas

    “Diga-me com quem andas e te direis quem és”. Eu diria: diga-me com quem andas e eu te direi quem você será. Não estou falando da pesquisa que diz que somos a média das pessoas com quem convivemos, nem de como somos influenciados pelos amigos dos amigos dos nossos amigos. [1] O que se mede…

  • HOW MY GALLUP’S STRENGTHS SHOW UP IN MY LIFE

    This was an essay written for my Law & Leadership class, during the Spring 2022 semester at Loyola Law School, under the guidance of then Dean Michael Waterstone. More about the CliftonStrenghts bellow.* According to the Gallup’s test, my Top 5 CliftonStrengths are, in order: Strategy, Empathy, Achiever, Futuristic and Positivity. I think they paint…

  • Você Nunca Vive o Mesmo Momento Duas Vezes

    Há exatamente um ano, nesses mesmos dias, eu estava passando por um processo doloroso. Meu fiel companheiro de quatro patas chegava ao fim da vida do seu corpo. Os relances de alegria e os momentos de doçura ainda estavam lá, e isso tornou o processo um pouco menos doloroso. Hoje penso que tudo o que…

  • Grace Over Grind

    One of the biggest shifts in my life came the moment I accepted this uncomfortable truth: no matter how hard I work, I will never be deserving of all that I’ve been given. Let me back up. For as long as I can remember — and I have to be really honest here — I…

  • Remind yourself who you are.

    Life happens so fast. There are so many external stimulants that can easily distract ourselves from our inner world. Recently, I feel like I have lost connection with who I am. Things didn’t happen as I wanted or planned and to me, that is the definition of failure. Crazy, I know! Today, I took the…

  • My Journey to Passing the California Bar Exam: Personal Take

    Yesterday, after 10 weeks of excrutiating pain, I got the news that I passed the February 2023 Bar Exam in California. This has been such a long journey. I will write a post with more practical tips eventually. However, here, I’d like to talk about a big part of succeeding in this: the mindset. I…

  • O Poder da Escrita

    Ontem, escrevi sobre a prática de “journaling”, que nada mais é do que escrever um diário. Escrevi sobre como João 1:5 me tocou e me fez perceber o poder da escrita. E isso me lembrou de um parágrafo do último capítulo do meu livro “Devaneios de Uma Mente Inquieta”. Trago-o pra vocês aqui: “Sócrates dizia…

  • Why You Should Journal

    I am a BIG big fan of journaling, scripting and writing affirmations. Ever since I read John 1:1 in my 20’s, something about the word “Verbo” [In english = Word] just really touched me and gave me an insight as to how transformative writing can be. I always enjoyed writing but at that moment, I…
