About Ciara Charlotte
Ciara Charlotte

I’m Ciara Charlotte. Singer, Public Speaker and Motivator. My two platforms are #BeBrave and #ShareASmile.

Be Brave is started out as an anti-bullying campaign. I created a presentation to inform people about bullying. What is bullying? Cyberbullying? How do they affect people? Who exactly is involved? How can we prevent it?

I’ve expanded Be Brave to an anti-hate movement. Each of us are different in our own ways. At the end of the day, however, we are all people. We are all living to succeed, at least in our own eyes.

Share A Smile is a way to “perk up” each participant’s day, to make them smile. It all started with two buckets. One for note deposits, and one for taking a note for one’s self. Each person writes an anonymous note to “Share A Smile,” with a stranger. Once it is dropped it in the bucket, (where each note is checked to make sure it is nice/appropriate), the participant gets to take a note from the (approved-notes) bucket, that way, each person gets a special note to make him/her smile as well!

Recently, I have lost someone close to my heart. I worked at Studio Noir in Long Beach, helping out with the kids band, "Awkward Silence." Brendan Carr was the young drummer with tons of swag. He hid his smile well, but he recently committed suicide. I haven't gone a day without crying since I heard the news. He was a young, middle school student, who was bullied until he felt there was only one way out.

In honor of Brendan's life, I am hosting an event in memory and tribute to Brendan. With a growing team of support, I am certain to make this a great event. The event is being planned for a date in February at Five Towns College. If you are interested in volunteering (in any way), PLEASE do not hesitate to send your contact information & what you would like to do to be a part of #BeBrave & #ShareASmile's upcoming event.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
