MY LIFE MY RULES - CiCi Coleman

SOMETHING I’M PROUD OF… is moving to New York when I was 23. It was always a dream to live in a different country and the memories are high. It’s a beautiful city and very special to me.

THE ADVICE I’D GIVE MY 16-YEAR-OLD SELF IS… to continue to be brave and trust in the process. When it feels like everything is heavy and hard and there’s no light at the end of the tunnel, there always is.

THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN MY LIFE ARE… my parents. My dad in particular plays an incredible role in everything. He’s a father and a friend. He’s a wise man who doesn’t try to put his opinions on me and lets me find my way.

MY HIDDEN TALENT IS… being able to drink a bottle of water while laying down horizontally. As odd as that sounds, apparently that is a talent!
