Krystl is taking a long overdue Career Break, and wants to share with you what led up to this  (burn out, career transition, prioritizing healing and presence) & HOW we need to take back our RIGHT TO REST. She is leaving her full time role in tech to focus on Filipina on the Rise, and wants to create space in her life for recharge, healing, new inspiration, come back to FOTR with a new energy and will be handing the mic to someone special during this time... Tesz! (Who is Tesz? Read at bottom!)

Okay sisters, I love Filipina on the Rise and this community! But there comes a much needed time, to realize when it's time to take a step away, prioritize mental health and healing, create space for newness, model our right to rest, and FILL THY CUP in order to REST. In this episode, I open up about:

• What's been going on behind the seasons of all the production, perfectionism, the burn out, pressures around content creator culture
• Leaving my full time role in tech, entering season of space, stillness and silence
• Finally acknowledging Mental Health issues, Burn out
• Why seasons of Rest is difficult for those of immigrant backgrounds but it's absolutely crucial and powerful
• HOW to practice presence and WHY this we need this to take our power back

In this episode, I'm interviewed and handing off the mic to the AMAZING Tesz Millan. TESZ Millan is a creative force, expressing her gifts as a YouTube creator, digital nomad and singer. At the start of 2022, she premiered her YouTube series, “Filipina. American. Creative.” In each episode, TESZ is rediscovering her lost Philippine heritage from the perspective of a 1st Generation Filipina-American. She has shared her voice performing internationally for Hong Kong Disneyland and starring in musical productions such as “Miss Saigon” and “Mamma Mia!” She released two music albums in 2021 – “Be Here Now”, a yoga album for the heart and soul, and “So Far and So Few”, a dance album for the body and mind. She is grateful for every opportunity she has to connect to life changing adventure, soul-stirring conversation and yummy eats. Share the journey with her at https://youtube.com/c/TESZMillan.
