About me:
I have been working abroad for many years and have recently come back to the Philippines. The pandemic has truly brought light to what matters: family and loved ones. While becoming a digital nomad is still in the plan, I count each day as a blessing because we are closer than ever.
Whenever possible, I share my knowledge through content creation: writing articles, sharing tips on YouTube, attending speaking events, conducting training and seminars.
My core belief is “growth”. Growth is synonymous to improvement and therefore, you will hear me saying this a lot: What you can measure, you can manage, and what you can manage – you can IMPROVE.
How do you use your influence to create a world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive?
My mantra is to lead by action. I have worked with agencies with teams and clients that often comprise different nationalities, different beliefs, Always seek genuine connections beyond confounding factors like gender, skin color, religion, socio-economic class, and so on. The key is to be genuine in knowing about their background. Pro tip: Listen more than you speak; start with food.
What’s your best advice for Filipino women to thrive in the new normal?
Stay educated. Always adapt. Improvise. EVOLVE. Digitization has abolished so many barriers and it created more opportunities to work remotely. One can easily switch careers, work commute from across the globe, network, and acquire new skill sets (start with this!). Create an online business.
Whatever you do, just start… then fail hard and fast, then start (a new one) again – failure and discipline can take you to places motivation can’t.
Now is the best time to be a Filipino woman in the New Normal – go and make the best out of it!
