Beyond Borders: A Filipina’s Playbook

What “working from home” really looks like for me

Working from home is often shown online as something easy and flexible. But real life looks very different.


In this first episode of Beyond Borders A Filipina’s Playbook, I share my real experience of working from home while living in Taiwan, married to a Taiwanese, and raising a child.


I talk about waking up at 2 a.m. for work, shifting between work and motherhood, and managing a home as a foreign wife. I share how language barriers, cultural differences, and marriage challenges shaped my journey, especially during the early years when I felt misunderstood and invisible.


This episode is not about quick success. It is about starting with very little, feeling dependent before finding stability, and slowly building confidence and security over time while working with US based clients.


This podcast is for foreign wives living in Taiwan, mothers who want to earn from home, and women who feel stuck but know there must be more possibilities.

Your situation is not permanent. Let us discover life beyond borders together.
