11/7/2023 0 Comments Dance moms booked movie chloeWhat’s it like to be studying from home while pursuing an acting career? What kind of projects do you want to do? I was like, “All right, you’re mom!” My sister and I are learning French and she’s been calling them le mère and le père. After that I started calling them by their first names, and then my mom said she wished I would call her mom again. They’re not just my parents! When you realize your parents have their own identity, it’s the trippiest thing ever. I had a moment where I realized my parents are their own human beings. You call your parents by their first names! Why? Now she’s my favorite human in the whole world. I was an only child for so long and then she came. My little sister came around when I was 8, which was the highlight of my childhood. I used to go to the park and play basketball with my dad. I would pick out a bunch of books and read them throughout the week. My dad used to take me to the library every Sunday. When I first entered this industry, I thought it was so cool to grow up in L.A., but I’m so grateful that I grew up where I did because I feel I wouldn’t have had the same beliefs and morals that I do now. My dad works for Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh in marketing and PR. It was a very grounded childhood, which I’m grateful for when I look back on it. I had such a low-key childhood in Pittsburgh. It’s the best feeling to get kind messages. Whenever I get a DM from people and they say I brighten their day and make it a little better, it warms my heart like I can’t even explain. I’m trying to be a positive light for people. To be able to talk to people about voting and remind people to register to vote was the coolest thing. It’s probably my favorite part of my job. I’m lucky to have an opportunity to be a voice to so many people, and I can reach so many. What’s the responsibility like of having so many followers? It must be a lot of pressure. I love creating a brand for myself and putting a vibe out there. The other platforms feel a little more polished, which I also love. Now it’s my favorite platform to make content for. I had missed dinner! I realized I was obsessed with TikTok. The next time I looked up, three hours had gone by. Then quarantine came around and one night I was lying on my couch and scrolling through videos. I said I wasn’t going to fall into this whole new world of social media. I give a bit of myself to each field.ĭo you have a favorite social media platform? It’s important to me that I do a bit of everything each day. If I spend an hour writing, I spend an hour working on a scene for an acting class or an hour of homework or content creating. I try to put in equal amounts of time for everything. Every night before bed, I look at what I have to do the next day between school and acting and all the other work I do. You’re on so many different platforms, from TikTok to Instagram. When people ask what I do for work I say that I act, I’m an author, I’m currently working on writing another book, I do social media. I’m in college now, which is weird because I’m so used to having an abnormal life and it feels so normal. It’s actually quite difficult to define it. You’ve already accomplished a lot for someone your age. I’m prioritizing myself, which is weird because I try to do it all. Now I feel way less guilty and selfish if I say I need to take tonight for myself. You can be better for the people around you. I’m concerned with the world around me, but I realized it’s a super power to focus on yourself and better yourself. I’m always thinking of other people and how they might be affected by my actions or words. I have a hard time with that because I’m an empathetic person. What was the best lesson you learned in 2020? But I was fortunate to have a productive experience, and for that I am grateful. I know a lot of people struggled during this time, and I feel for those people. We get so caught up in the world we live in. I was taking more walks and connecting with myself. I started painting, drawing, and reading more. But now I have all this time to settle down and connect with myself and ground myself, so I said, “Let’s do it!” I hopped on the train and used this time to slow down, appreciate time with my family, find passions. I felt like I never had control of my days. I saw this weird and crazy time and decided to use it for good. Everyone is going through the ups and downs. How has this year been for you? Keeping your spirits up? Did we mention she’s also in college? Lukasiak took a rare break to tell THE DAILY how she’s doing it all and why this year was a much needed opportunity to focus on herself.
