“Not afraid to reinvent myself”

Lumena is an inspiration to us! In her heart, the psychologist and ex-BBB nurtures an unconditional love for very special people who inspire her: “I’ve had the honor of meeting many inspiring women in various fields – both in academia and in politics. But right now, the ones that inspire me the most are the women of my Axé, my holy mothers Done Neide, Mejito Aline It is Russian Ingridcandomblé women from Hunkpame Avejidá Dan Oya – where I learn about ethics, empathy, respect and [conviver em] collectivity.”.

Those who follow her trajectory know that some moments – and a lot of text on open TV – marked her history. In order to help society with her influence, she encouraged people to never remain silent in the face of prejudiced situations and defend each other.

“Self-criticism is always a good move to make when it comes to identity issues, social movements and political flags. After all, machismo, racism, etc., will always be correlated and present in our social relations. There is no single formula, much less a recipe for a cake, but always use common sense to be aware when any injustice happens near you or with your loved ones. In this case, my advice is never to shut up”, advised.

A strong woman brings missions into her life. Lumena commented: “The most important mission for me is not to be afraid to accept mistakes and mistakes that, by chance, appear on the journey and, of course, to have the courage to follow”.

Can Lumena be considered a superheroine? For sure! To complete, she told what power she would have to give a special touch to the character: “A power I wanted to have was to disappear and appear somewhere else. Like The Flash [risos]”.

To get even more intimate, the star put together a top three of her features and flaws: “As a good Aryan, I am all worked on impulsiveness, intensity and anxiety. A classic crooked Aryan, but who lives on deep love as she sang Daniela Mercury.”.

And to finish, she told the biggest motto of her life. “Not afraid to reinvent myself.”, she said.
