ACT Consciously
We are dedicated to the development of interpersonal communication skills and public speaking.
Our purpose is to improve your communication so that you can maximize your abilities and through self-perception, overcome your blocks and amplify your voice when public speaking.
Because Awareness and conscious Communication lead to Transformation.
My work is to facilitate processes
so that people can express themselves with confidence, empathy, and authenticity.
I am a Communication Coach, mother of two and meditation practitioner. For eleven years I have worked for HSM in corporate education congresses as an assistant to renowned international speakers.
Bachelor in Performing Arts from UNICAMP (Campinas University, Brazil), I have a postgraduate degree in Theater Directing and, for twenty-five years, I worked in various roles within the theatrical business: actress, producer, assistant director, actor’s coach, and director.
I have a solid background in the English language learned during my childhood spent in Los Angeles, USA, and later improved through Cambridge University Degrees. For ten years I have worked as a teacher, translator, and interpreter at several institutions.
I also worked in Planning and Organization of national and international events related to the visual arts market and, in events related to spirituality and consciousness expansion.
ACT Consciously was founded during the Pandemic, within a moment of career transition motivated by a deep personal crisis and an incessant quest to give a higher meaning to my work. My purpose is to make my mark through your growth and the development of your interpersonal communication.
“I am passionate about self-development and means of human expression, such as oratory, theater, and dance. I truly believe that consciously improving communication leads to the transformation of people and processes. My purpose as a conscious communication coach is to help you improve your verbal expression, thereby developing a more confident and authentic communication.”

“entender os processos de comunicação”
“Luciana’s work was fundamental in improving my performance in the work process that I was going through at the time. The transformation was undeniable. Besides being a very kind and available person, she is a very competent and committed professional. You can tell she loves what she does. I highly recommend her”.

“The transformation was undeniable”
“First things first, Luciana is my cousin… kind of relative you may (or not) choose to have for the life. In our case we did say yes to this blood-bond almost half a century ago… And despite life journey made us to be sometimes set aside we were always looking for each other. Happened she was the one amazingly good when talking, acting, with her unique and impactful style. Yes, Luciana was the actress, I became an engineer… Then during the pandemia we found a good reason to stay connected! She was looking for a way to help people to talk like her! I was most needed to enhance my communication skills to lead a high-performance team (of engineers!) virtually. The world dynamic was changing, and she decided to be an entrepreneur with the Act Consciously. We had almost 6 months of weekly calls. Guess what… couple of years later I’m still enjoying the effectiveness of what I´ve learned from those classes – a high end professional, awesome content and preparation, delivered by someone that really cares about you. Those help me to evolve without losing authenticity, even in a foreign language. Thanks Prima Lu, you are Simply the Best!”

“The Act Consciously course with Luciana helped me a lot in my speaking skills and connections with clients and people, both in my professional and personal life.
The techniques learned provided me with the basis to prepare myself mentally and physically for my speech: keeping calm, so I can focus on the message I want to give, and do it clearly and directly.
Focused listening is also part of communication, and developing it in the course was very important, for a more coherent and cohesive communication in general.
I am an architect and landscape architect: the course allowed me to position myself professionally in a clearer and more objective way, and thus generated very positive feedback from clients and partners.
I strongly recommend the Act Consciously course to all professionals who wish to improve their speaking and communication skills!”

“Realizei o Programa Personalizado de Comunicação Consciente com a Luciana durante 3 meses com o fim de aprimorar minhas técnicas de comunicação interpessoal e de discursos em público. Após as sessões, me tornei mais atenta para minha respiração e contato visual com o interlocutor de minhas exposições orais. Também percebi mais a importância de fatores exteriores ao discurso em si, como postura, ambiente e estimulantes olfativos. Quanto ao discurso, as sessões me auxiliaram a perceber os aspectos essenciais para preparar minhas apresentações por meio da elaboração de “bucket contents”. Uma das coisas mais marcantes que aprendi com Luciana foi a importância de compreender os princípios da comunicação não-violenta que me permitem a consciência quanto às necessidades de meus interlocutores, assim como das minhas nossas próprias necessidades, tornando a comunicação mais efetiva, eficiente e mutuamente benéfica”.
