Sometimes, there's just so much to do that we can't really enjoy our weekends, right? I can totally relate to that! It's the weekend but you can't really rest because there's so many things going on in your head. Then you become anxious that Monday is gonna come too soon simply because you feel you're not ready for it. My friend, in this episode, I'll show you this 4-st...

Why do people always ask us to improve? Kung ok naman, why do we need to change? "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" right? In this episode, I'll tell you the dangers of just staying where you are and never improving, even if things seem to be ok. In fact, if we linger too long at just being ok, it might already be too late to get out of failure. But no worries, because in this...

They get away...

During my trip to Batanes, I was so blessed to meet a fellow traveller from the US. We met her at the airport and she instantly became my BFF during the trip (haha!). She's been travelling for months already in other countries before she came to the Philippines. And she's been in other wonderful places in the Philippines before she came to Batanes! But what I didn't expect is when I as...

Have you encountered a failure that you couldn't recover from? Did you fail recently? Sure, many will tell you to just get back up and move on. But I can totally relate, because it's not that easy, right? You can't just get back up without knowing what to do. In this episode, I share to you what I learned from something when I was young - learning how to ride the bike. Like everyone el...

If you're feeling anxious, stressed out, worried I don't think I need to tell you that I can totally relate. Because we're all humans and we're bound to experience this throughout our lives! But for a lot of people, these feelings can actually get us stuck. Fear starts to creep in and we stop doing what we're supposed to be doing, our brains start to come up with excuses, we go...

Last weekend I shared with you my inspiring conversation with Diana Miranda where we talked about her heeding God's call despite her circumstances. In this episode, I share with you another inspiring conversation with two seminarians of SVD in Tagaytay.

We're not getting any younger. And if we think about it, as years keep passing by, it feels like it's already too late for us to achieve anything. There's just not enough time anymore, right? The truth is, it's NOT TOO LATE even if it feels like it! Because in reality, you are still capable to achieve as long as you live and breathe. You can still be happy and live a fulfilling res...

I recently got into an accident where I got hit by a car. Yep, I was crossing the road when I got hit. I was in shock and I couldn't think straight. Who would be? But as soon as I was checked in the hospital and got everything settled, I finally got to calm down and reflect. This accident has made me realize several things that I often took for granted recently. In this episode, I share with y...

Yeah, you've probably heard any one of these advices too many times already, "Take the leap of faith", "Get out of your comfort zone", "Make that bold move." But has anyone actually showed you how it's done? It sounds so easy, right? But it takes a lot of courage to actually do the action because we have a lot of "what if's" in our head. And I ca...

EVERYONE CAN EXPERIENCE IT: episodes of being so down, anxiety, depression, self doubt. And not even motivational speakers, thought leaders, preachers, success trainors, coaches are spared, even when they appear all positive and happy on the outside. We're all human beings. But what's different is what leaders do when they're down. In this episode, I'm so blessed to talk with the F...

Sometimes it feels like a drag to continue doing what your doing, right? It's too tedious to even lift an arm because with all the hard work ahead of us toward reaching our goals?

You only have to do ONE (yes, just ONE!) very simple...

I'll show you t...

So you've set a goal, but it feels like there's a big giant boulder stopping you on your way. Your goal feels impossible to achieve. It's too big. It feels arduous to even get halfway to it. Takes a ton of effort. Alright, that's it you're giving up, you can't achieve it. Right?... I know how it feels. But what if I tell you there's actually an "easy" way? Yup...

It's already been four months, how are the goals you set last January? Did anything move already? If it looks like you're stuck again and your goals are (again) slowly slipping away, you might have set the wrong goals. Believe me, I've been there. I was so enthusiastic at the beginning of the year setting my goals and I was excited to achieve them. Then as months pass by, I slowly got...

Why you? Other people are more talented that you are, right? They're younger, they have better skills, they have the tools. You feel like you simply aren't good enough, right? But you know what?

The say, "Follow your passion" so you don't have to 'work' again. We hear it over and over again that successful people follow their passion that's why they're where they are. And sometimes this advice has become so overrated and toxic because hey, let's be realistic, how can you feed your family if your passion won't get food on your table, right? In this episode, I tell you what it really means...

I know exactly what it feels like! You already did your best, gave it your all but somehow, nothing's happening! It's so frustrating, right? And you feel like giving up. But you know what?

In this episod...

Was there something that you wanted to try doing but you had second thoughts on whether you could do it or not? Or maybe someone asked you to do something in the office that could be a game changer for you but fear got the better of you? What if I fail? What if I can't really do it? I haven't done this before. I'll be honest, I was guilty of these limiting beliefs too. But you know what? These lim...
