Lívia Silva, actress who plays Teca in the remake of Reborn, faced financial difficulties with his family before getting an opportunity in the profession. What saved her family and got her noticed in her artistic world were the coconut candies sold by her mother.

“Sometimes there was no money to pay the electricity bill. We slept by candlelight. We also couldn’t afford food,” he said in an interview with the newspaper Extra.

According to her, her parents had to deal with double or triple shifts to support the family. Her mother, for example, came from formal work and went to Brás, in São Paulo, to buy clothes to resell. Her father went to sell açaí and acerola.

The problem appeared around 2017, when his father became unemployed and his mother was out of work, fired by the National Institute of Social Security (INSS). During this time, her mother dreamed of a baked coconut while she slept, and the next day, she decided to try making the sweet to sell.

“She had R$40 in her account. She went to the market, bought everything needed for the recipe. My sister and I took it to school. After ten minutes we came home saying that everyone liked it. We sold it everywhere. São Paulo. So we managed to finish building our house”, explained Lívia.

In addition to earning a living, cocada also led to Lívia being discovered as an actress. She and her sister put on a fun presentation to sell the product and that got her noticed by a casting producer.

“My mother was afraid of what might happen to me. But then she took me to the theater and I never went out again,” he said.
