But you know who inspires me the most?

GOD

Answering chapter one from This is Home: A Notebook for Self-Exploration (Illustrated by Eric Nguyen) 😉

When God gives, it pours.

One of life's many frustrations is having the patience to wait for God's best in our lives. I know what you're thinking. Is His best a person, a promise, or a grand thing?

God's best refers to living a life aligned with divine will and purpose. The concept of God's best is deeply personal and can vary from person to person. It is often seen as a journey of seeking and striving to live a life that is in harmony with one's beliefs and values, guided by a sense of connection to the divine.

Join me and my dear friend from college, whom our barkada fondly calls "mother," Mrs. Nicole Vienna Jimenez-Semblante, as we delve into her journey of discovering God's best for her life.

The road may be challenging, but take comfort in the fact that God fulfills His promises in His way, His time, His will, His plan. And always remember that in a world where you can be anything, be kind. Here's to hoping that we all find God's best in our lives, whatever that may be.

Prepare your tissues and handkerchiefs because you'll surely shed a lot of tears in this episode.

Losing a loved one can be one of the most difficult experiences of our lives, and it can feel like we'll never be able to move forward. But with time, support, and a few key strategies, it is possible to start living life better again.

Join me and my fall out girl, Grazel Galeos as she shares her journey, discuss how to make the most out of every moment, and explore the many ways to live life better after losing the one you love.

In this episode, we'll also explore different ways to cope with grief and loss, from finding new sources of joy to connecting with others who have been through similar experiences. Whether you're currently going through a loss or simply looking for ways to support someone who is, this episode will offer practical tips and uplifting stories to help you navigate this challenging time.

Don't miss out on this heartfelt episode, it's one of my favorites! ❤️

Sometimes, life can feel like it's at a standstill and we're waiting for something to happen. But I truly believe that these moments of waiting are actually opportunities for growth and healing. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and that God has a plan for each and every one of us. He doesn't necessarily ask us to do great things, but rather to seek Him, to obey Him, and to surrender to Him with an open heart. When we put our trust in Him, and root ourselves deeply in His love and grace, we can weather any storm that comes our way. So if you're feeling stuck right now, take heart: there is a purpose to this season, and God is with you every step of the way.

For the past 4 years, I have been on a journey of healing, and I have experienced God's presence in ways that I never thought were possible.

Healing is a process, and it takes time, patience, and faith. I encourage anyone who is going through a healing journey to trust in God and to seek support from those around you.

Join me and my besh, Gideon Doron for part one of a two-part episode where we reminisce about how we met over a year ago in Singapore. We share stories about the spontaneous activities we did together, deep talks about life, and how a major family event changed Gideon's perspective on life. Additionally, we discuss a profound realization we had while "creating our emoji" in the activity room of Singapore Biennale, which we now believe to be the ultimate goal. Overall, this podcast is a happy throwback to our shared healing trip.

In this episode, we discuss the myth of needing motivation to get started. Research shows that motivation follows action, and we explore how making small agreements with yourself and following through with them can cultivate self-confidence. Learn how to build habits and systems that are stronger than your feelings, and how to see yourself as a person who honors their word even when no one is watching.
