"Focus is a skill that you develop. It is not something you're born with." -Nicole and Prax "Blanket time" Ito ang recent activity that we introduced to our baby boy Marcus. Nabasa ko sa isang baby book by Gary Ezzo, isang pediatrician, that focus is an important skill that we should teach our baby. Ang concept ng blanket time is - iiwan si baby sa isang blanket, sa isang area kung saan maglalaro siya ng specific toy for a certain time. Nagumpisa kami with 3 minutes. And now, nasa 10 minutes na kami. Gary Ezo shares that toddler can focus to about 30 minutes per activity. Everytime ginagawa namin tong activity with Marcus - duon mo makikita that at an early age ang dami nang distractions. Maya't maya kukuha ng ibang toy o gagapang palabas sa blanket para sundan ako. Now imagine, tayo na mas maraming distractions - tayo na mas nakakaintindi. We are not far from a little baby who can't focus for 5 minutes. In this episode, we will share with you 3 tips on how to stay focused with working from home.

"Being professional is not taking it personal." -Prax Five years ago, we were wishing "Kung pwede sana magtrabaho nalang sa bahay." It was the dream that finally came true. Kumusta? Nagenjoy ka ba? Masaya bang magtrabaho sa bahay? Wala nang makulit na officemate. Wala nang boss na tumitingin sa ginagawa mo. At wala na rin requirement na magpantalon. Napalitan ito ng: Makulit na nanay.

Sa dinami dami ng bulilyasong nangyari sa ating mga plano this year, ano naman ang mabuting nadulot nitong year 2020? Despite the many challenges we've faced, if we look at the brighter side of things or the silver lining - makikita natin na mas marami parin ang mabuting nadulot nitong taong ito.  Kaya tara. Pagmasdan natin ang silver lining na naexperience natin this year and let's celebrate them.

Sino nga ba si Gordon Ramsay? Pinsan ni Dick Gordon? o Tito ba sya ni Derek Ramsey? Si Gordon Ramsay ay world renowned chef - three michelin starred, highest paid, and richest. Meron syang restaurant chains all over the world, super sikat na television shows and best selling author ng mga culinary books. Ngunit hindi dito nagsimula ang buhay ni Gordon - lumaki sya ng mahirap lamang. In this episode we share with you our newfound fascination for this man as we stumbled upon him on Netflix sa show nyang "Hell's Kitchen". Join us as we reflect on the lessons that we learned from this wonderful person.

Is there a reason for us to celebrate Christmas kung ganito ang nangyayari sa mundo? Lugmok ang ekonomiya, marami ang nawalan ng trabaho, ang mga negosyo ay nalulugi. Join us in today's episode today as we explore the silver lining in everything miserable that is happening in this world - how there is hope in the midst of darkness. No matter how bad it is, it doesn't take much to realize kung gano kasimple lang maging masaya ang ating Pasko.

"Ikaw ba ang tipo na pag nagagalit ay tumatahimik ka lang? o bratatatat! Sasagot at ilalabas ang lahat ng sama ng loob?" Ang isa ay si Nicole and ang isa ay si Prax. You would fall on either side. Regardless if you are one or the other, we need to accept the fact that everyone will get angry when provocated or triggered.  What's the right way to react to this emotion? Join us in our discussion as we ramble about our thoughts on how to deal with anger.

Madaling tumaba. Ang hirap pumayat. Kain ako ng junk food and takeout for one week. Tataba ako ng five pounds. Kaso parang forever para ma lose yang five pounds na yan. One year minsan two years pa. Imagine the horror of gaining 35 lbs during pregnancy and how infuriating it is to lose that much fat. Once Baby Marcus was born I had around 20 lbs to lose, and it was a long hard winding road. While I'm writing this I still need to lose 1.4 lbs to get back into my pre pregnancy weight, but I'm near the finish line. In today's episode we will share with you our recent obsession we we acquired during pandemic - Meal Planning, and how it helped Prax gained back his pre pregnancy body.

“May baby na tayo no?” “Di ako makapaniwala. Ang surreal.” Ang hirap pala magka baby lalo na sa simula.  Magkaka kapatid pa kaya siya? Hmmmm During the first months ay nag struggle talaga kami. But humans are adaptable and we have the capability to learn quickly. And this journey has been a big opportunity for us to learn lessons. Join us in this episode as we unravel five things we learned from our son.

How do you mend a broken heart? “Hello Kuya Nicole and Ate Prax. My boyfriend left me hanging for no reason. Should I hold on? Or should I move on?” Join us in today’s episode as we journey back during a time when Prax and I broke up twice. What did we learn? How did we go about it?  This is how we managed to improve ourselves with the process.

Before we started podcasting mahilig na talaga kaming makinig ng mga podcast. It's one of the ways we entertain ourselves and learn. It's been 8 years since we first listened to a podcast, and until now natutuwa parin ako makinig sakanila.  Here is a list of the podcasts that continue to teach and entertain us.  Sharing with you guys baka magustuhan nyo rin.

"Kuya Nicole Ate Prax! Bagong listener nyo po ako. Meron po akong tanong." "What if magstart kayo ulit with 100,000 pesos?" This prompted us to revisit our fondness for entrepreneurship. In this episode we talk about a fun experiment of what we would do if we had to start all over again.

"Uy Prax! Ang payat mo na! Anong bang pwede kong gawin para pumayat din?" "Start ka muna with your diet. Change your breakfast into something healthier. Try mo tong recipe na to." "Ay yun lang? Papalitan ko yung breakfast ko and then papayat na ko?" One simple step into losing weight, and losing fat.  But most people would rather do nothing than change their habit one small step at a time.  We want to set out our journey into losing weight, or achieving financial freedom - perfecting every single step necessary into achieving our goals.  In our minds para pumayat ay bukas na bukas dapat 100% plant based ka, exercising 7x a week, and eating a perfect diet during breakfast lunch and dinner. Sadly, that is a long way to go.  And the thought of doing that often paralyzes us into inaction.  Join us in today's episode as we delve into reaching retention over paralyzing perfection.

In a relationship ka ba in your twenties? Is it going strong? Pang matagalan na ba ito? Tipong papunta na sa - tan tan tanan. Kasalan. There was a time na nandyan kami on the same boat. And looking back here are advices that we'll tell ourselves. Join us in today's episode as we look back and share ano ang ten things na nag work sa aming relationship. This is the foundation of our marriage today.

"Uy! Nasa Trending Charts kayo ng Spotify." One of our listeners messaged us over Instagram to let us know we're going viral. Na-surprise kami kasi for the longest time hindi na namin ito chinicheck. Pero flashback to when we were just starting out - hayok na hayok kami na mapasok sa Spotify Charts. Araw araw kami nagcheck kung nandun na kami, until such time na napagod nalang kami at tinigil na namin ang pag tingin. And then suddenly... BOOM! Nandyan na kami sa charts. It's our 15 seconds of fame. Ang saya saya pala sa pakiramdam. Pero kung gaano kabilis na nandoon kami, ay napaka fleeting din ng moment na yon. Dahil kinabukasan ay balik work nanaman - mag isip ng topic, mag record, mag edit, at mag upload. In today's episode we talk about our eagerness to achieve fame and how we navigate through the complex desire to achieve recognition. Introspect and learn from this experience.

Titos and Titas of #Philippines #Pampanga #Manila #World #Universe Gusto mo bang malaman if #certified tito or tita ka na? Ano ang criteria? Ano ang metrics? Here are our top ten certified things tito and tita tendencies. Join us in today's episode as we award you your certification of Tito and Tita.

"Birthday mo na next week. Anong gusto mong gawin?" "Wala naman. Normal day lang. Wag mo kong isusurprise ha!" Yan ang kadalasan na sagot ng ating mga partners pag malapit na ang kanilang mga birthday. Pero subukan mo na walang surprise at walang gawin - naku po! In today's episode we talk about how we made our birthdays and anniversary special during quarantine and pandemic. Paano mag surprise kung magkasama kayo 24/7 sa bahay at alam ang lahat ng galaw ng isa't isa. Anong activities and pwedeng gawin ngayon hindi na normal ang mag eat out, mag vacation, or magtawag ng relatives. It doesn't take much to make your special someone smile.

"Ang sakit ng tyan ko, baka meron nakong stomach cancer." "Di ako makahinga ng maayos, hala may COVID nako." "Nainfect yung sugat ko, hala mamamatay nako." Ito ay ilan sa mga halimbawa na kinain kami ng anxiety. Nagwworry kami ng walang tigil.  Nagjjump na agad into conclusion na may cancer or covid. Too much worrying and being anxious.  Napansin mo ba na extra anxious ka during this pandemic?  Kung hindi naman anxious, siguro depressed or lethargic? Join us in today's episode kung saan paguusapan namin ang effect ng pandemic sa aming mental health and how we can stop worrying and start living.

New Normal parin ba ngayong 7 months na tayo sa pandemic? Baka it's time to call it normal.  And in this normalcy, how do we regain our sense of productivity? I'm sure marami sa atin ang nawalan ng trabaho, floating, or meron trabaho pero petix na to the max. At ikaw na mismo nag cocomplain bakit walan ginagawa. Nakakatamad din pala ang 7 months na bakasyon. Kaya pala 2 months lang ang summer vacation noong nag aaral tayo. Bat parang ang hirap bumalik sa dating groove noh? Dahil pa nawala na yung mga nakagawian natin na routines? Wala nang office na pinupuntahan at di na kailangan mag bihis sa umaga. Samahan nyo kami in today's episode, as we discuss how do we regain productivity amidst the pandemic.

"Ang bilis ng panahon, 20 years old na nga ako. Hindi na ako teenager." Mangiyak-ngiyak kong naisip on my last day of being a teenager. As a new chapter of my life was about to begin, I was filled with sadness.  But at the same time, filled with hope - that this is the decade for me to try to figure out who I am. Fast forward to today, where in a few days I'll be turning 32, I'm also sad to leave my 20s behind.  But with that sadness is a gift of retrospect that I can give as a gift to my 19 year old self.  To our friends and listeners who are currently in their twenties, here are ten things we wished we learned when we were in our twenties.

"Practice Makes Perfect". Yan ang laging sambit ng aking elementary teacher. Gustong kong sabihin sa teacher ko - "Bullsyet yan mehn". Ang tagal kong naglaro ng patintero lagi akong talo. Ilang oras ang ginugol sa touch'n'ball hindi ako naging world champion.  Hangang sa tumanda ako laging sinasabi sakin na practice makes perfect. Totoo nga ba? Ngayon ko lang napagtanto at napag nilaynilay. The Nico today would tell those people. "Bullshit yan..men" Practice doesn't make you perfect, deliberate practice does. Join us in today's conversation to learn more about deliberate practice to help you achieve your goals and become the best version of yourself.

Hindi ito parenting channel.  Pero dahil marami ang nagtatanong - itong episode na ito ay all about how to get your baby to sleep through the night. Dahil iyan ang number one problem ng mga new parents - na katulad namin.  Na experience namin na maging sleep deprived, fatigue, and losyang. "Kailan na ba ako ulit makakatulog?" "Kailan ko na magagawa ang mga gusto kong gawin?" "Kailan na ba ako maliligo? at makakajebs ng walang timer?" Samahan niyo kami sa aming journey on how our baby Marcus learned how to sleep through the night... on his own. At 11 weeks old.

Mahilig ka bang magtake ng photos for memories' sake? Katulad ba kita na puno na ang memory ng phone ng mga photos or memories? Tipong mag take ka ng photo pero OOPS! memory full. Kasi ang gallery mo puno ng pare parehong photos. Isang pose, Sampung version. At pag babalikan mo upang ireview ang mga photos, eh nakakatamad dahil pare parehas nalang ang nakikita mo. Samahan nyo kami sa episode na to, to learn how to find the perfect shot that will encapsulate a piece of memory from your past.

Compound interest is the eight wonder of the world. Those who understand it, earns it. Those who don't, pay for it. - Albert Einstein Gusto mo bang pumayat or magka six pack abs? Gusto mo bang yumaman or magka love life? What if sabihin ko sa'yong kailangan mo lang maging one percent better? Prepare your meals, start investing, ask out your crush on a zoom date - a very small step into gaining something big. Kami as new parents we've lost a huge chunk of our time: mag feed ng baby, change diapers, play, paligo, and the cycle repeats itself for six times a day. Apart from the baby - magshshower ka pa, prepare ng pagkain, magligpit, maglinis, and the list goes on and on. Pano na ang oras to achieve the bigger goals in life: becoming financially free, becoming good with our crafts, or building a thriving business that helps millions of people. And in looking at one of the root causes why we're losing so much time during the day - it's because of our meals. Eating is a big part of our day we do it three times a day. But other than eating, you need to cook, do groceries, plate, and clean. So in this episode we'll share with you our story on how we tackled this problem with time regarding our meals - we decided to learn how to meal prep. This is an example of a 1% better strategy for us to have more time. But this also applies to people who want to lose weight, have six pack abs, or gain self confidence to finally get that love life you've always yearned for. So join us in this episode and learn how to become 1% better every day.

Sino ang makaka predict ng COVID Pandemic? Parang impossible kung sasabihin mo sakin last year na titigil ang buong mundo dahil sa isang sakit na flu. Pero here we are - living in a dream. Or living in a nightmare? Kung saan kinakailangan natin mag pause, kinakailangan tumigil ng ekonomiya, kinakailangan mahiwalay sa ating mga pamilya. But despite nitong mga masasamang nangyayari sa life we know that will rise again as a specie. Na after 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 10 years - babalik tayo sa "normal". Or something better. Pero I know, so far, most of us are suffering - mentally, financially. In this episode we are one with everyone who are having a hard time. Kaya naman samahan nyo kami to go back to memory lane, and tignan yung mga bagay na na-miss natin when things were still "normal". Ano ang mga bagay na na-miss mong gawin dati at definitely gagawin nyo pag natapos na ang nightmare na to.

Napansin mo ba na dahil sa quarantine ay nagkaron ka ng mas maraming oras? Na free-up ang commute or drive time, di mo na kailangan mag toothbrush and shower. Even ang pagbibihis mo ay kalahati nalang. Pang taas nalang - at special pa yun dahil during video calls lang yon. Given this na marami ka ng time - napansin mo rin ba kung gano ka mas naging unproductive? Este productive. Join us in today's episode. Does more time mean being more productive?

Spontaneous - a word I never use to describe me. I am a big planner, a control freak. Kaya naman sobrang hassle kapag things don’t go as planned. Hindi ba? Pero kailan nga ba nasusunod ang ating mga plano ng 100%?! Two weeks bago manganak si Prax eh, nagkaroon ng unforseen misunderstanding with our OBGyne doctor that blew our well thought out birth plan. From giving birth at a hospital to a birthing center with a midwife. From an unmedicated natural birth to an emergency C-Section. To a being part of the birth at the delivery room to a by-stander waiting for Prax to get out of the operating room dahil sa new policies due to Covid-19. Put in a life or death situation, dito ko narealize sponteneity is equally important as planning. Sponteneity puts me in an uncomfotable situation of making a decision right here and now- that leads to execution. Execution which is the ultimate goal sa atin pagpplano. In this episode, samahan nyo kami as we deep dive in this topic. Spontaneous ka ba? Tara makinig ka na!

It has been a tough few months for everyone. I hope you're doing good despite the pandemic. What a time to renew our season, and what a revelation to see that we are back from scratch - just like episode one of season one where we feel like beginners again. And in these tough times we have to recreate or reinvent ourselves if we want to thrive or even just survive.  Join us in our conversation and hope you get some value from it.

Kelan ka huling nagbasa ng fiction novel? Siguro noong elementary ka pa at inassign sa English class nyo. Yun exactly ang experience ko with reading fiction books - gumawa ako ng mga book reports ng Tom Sawyer, Prince and the Pauper, Lord of the Flies - kaso hindi ko sila binasa haha nagdownload lang ako ng summary at don ko binase ang aking report. Fast Forward to today, nagkaron ako ng renewed sense of love for fiction books, at hindi ko na dinodownload ang summary pero binabasa ko na sya cover to cover. Bakit ako nainlove sakanila?

“Let food be thy medicine.” I used to drink cholesterol meds and was told that I’ll be drinking them for the rest of my life. When I lowered my intake of animal meat - I was able to control my cholesterol levels after five years. If you’ve ever thought about trying vegan - this episode is for you. While we are not hardcore vegans or vegetarians - we still like our meat during weekends, we eat 90% of the time like vegetarians. Our neighbouring countries Japan, Korean, Thailand, Vietnam use meat sparingly in their cuisine. It’s a side dish that brings flavour to their food and not the main thing.  As an avid fan of Koreanovela or Korean Dating shows, I see couples eat meat when they celebrate something. It’s a precious meal that you save on momentous events, not an everyday thing. We are not convincing you to go vegan, rather we are answering people who keep asking us about going vegetarian/vegan.

I became thirty last year and it marked a milestone in my life. People say that women mature earlier than men, I agree. I still felt like a twenty-something a year ago.  My twenties was filled with experimentation - the world was my oyster. I felt like I had limitless potential to do everything in the world. I was fascinated with a lot of things and tried my best to pursue anything that I can get my hands on - skating, surfing, swimming, acting, screenplay writing, directing, cinematography, editing, photography, entrepreneurship, etc. And the list goes on and on. It wasn’t limited to the hobbies or passions I pursued, it also applied to my romantic relationships. It was a time of dating several girls. I would go out over the weekend and collect as much numbers as I can. And schedule them out for a date. My phone was filled with numbers and open conversations.  I was in love with infatuation. I did settle with my love life and choose to marry my childhood sweetheart. It was a part of my life where I committed to build a family with this person. And I can’t tell you how relieved I felt when I asked her to marry me. Finally, no more chasing and no more endless nights of dating. I’ve had enough and I needed focus and clarity with my life. I first learned about minimalism through the blog ZenHabits by Leo Babauta. But the content creator that truly impacted my life with minimalism is the duo TheMinimalists - Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus. It was their Netflix documentary Minimalism that opened my eyes to the pursuit of Less. Pick one and run with it. Whatever it is - a creative platform, a romantic partner, or a pursuit. It doesn’t matter if our choice is imperfect - we can change our answers in the future. But what’s important is deciding where we spend our efforts and time. Now that I’ve turned thirty, I would like to focus my next decade into building my wealth and providing for my family. I chose entrepreneurship and specifically I want to pursue a path in real estate investing of rental properties. Are you currently on the phase of experimenting? Or have you exhausted yourself and now ready to choose among the myriad of things you’ve chased? In retrospect, I didn’t choose one from my pursuits of career or romantic relationship because of the fear of success rather than the fear of failure.  “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.” - Timo Cruz on the film Coach Carter  Talk to you soon my friend.

All good things must come to and end... for now “Good Mornings with Nicole & Prax” Season Finale today as we bid goodbye to four straight months of releasing an episode every single day. This Teach Me Tuesday we impart lessons from The Lean Startup Methodology (all the way from Silicon Valley) - do you persist or do you pivot? In our creative endeavours, careers or business ventures there comes a time when we need to step back and ask our customers if we are solving their problems. We need to check if there’s a convergence of interests, are we lining up or is there a disconnect. We will return after re evaluating and re branding our show, and we hope to provide a better show when we’re back.  As we sign off this season, we would like to urge our avid listeners to continue having meaningful conversations with others.  Thank you! And see you on the next episode. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

This Motivation Monday we urge you to start with the small things - making your bed, brewing a good cup of coffee, and cleaning up after a meal.  Our life is 80% comprised of the menial and mundane things - driving, walking, eating, waiting. And we overlook and take those things for granted. Masyado tayong engrossed sa 1% - big events of our lives. Launching a new product line, IPO ng big business, hitting our 100 Million peso revenue. This will wear us out if we only live for these days and suffer through the rest. It’s ironic that the key to happiness and our success is doing the small things right - to act as if every little thing matters. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

Serene Sunday is Family Time. Malakas ang ating family ties especially sa mga Asian Countries. We make sure to spend more family time than the usual, compared to our Western friends. Dito sa Pinas normal lang na family time ang Sunday. Pagtapos makinig ng mass ay pupunta na yan sa mall at kakaen, or manunuod ng pelikula. Kahit na ano man ang family Sunday tradition, ito ay sacred at nirerespeto ng family members. Ano ang inyong Sunday Family Ritual? Chill sa Bahay? Magluto? Manuod?  Pano natin mae-elevate ang experience na ito? Here are a couple of tips we have to increase the quality of our time with family. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

This Sabbatical Saturday we explore a beverage that brings us zen and relaxation - Tea.  Kung ikaw ay avid coffee drinker every day, pahinga ka muna sa caffeine rush this weekend and try an alternative. Chill this weekend and find inner peace while sipping a hot cup of tea in the morning. Pwedeng kasabay ng breakfast or habang nagddessert ka. We have different stories about Tea - yung libre sa Chinese Restaurant, yung iniinom ng mga matatanda, or yung macha sa Starbucks. This is because we haven’t tasted great tea kaya hindi sanay ang palette natin for it, pero kahit nasan ka man sa tea journey mo mapa nagsstart or avid fan narin - meron choice for you. Halina’t makinig sa atin Sabbatical Saturday episode about Tea. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

Babalik ka ba sa iyong birth day (yung literal na day of birth mo), sa mga milestones ng mankind: pag imbento ng light bulb, sasakyan, or sa pag fly natin sa moon. Or babalik ka nung first time mong mameet ang iyong romantic partner? Or kabataan ng iyong parents?  So many choices, so many events to discover and experience. Let your mind roam wild and free. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

Nadiscover ko ang documentary na ito dahil nag viviral si Alex Honnold sa YouTube recently. Nakikita ko yung mga interviews nya, profile and many others. Then nahanap ko ung recent documentary about him. Ang premise ng docu - Alex attempts to conquer the first free solo climb of famed El Capitan’s 900-metre vertical rock face at Yosemite National Park. Hindi sikat ang rock climbing sa Pinas tulad ng sa America. Marami sa atin ang nagmmountain hike, pero rare ata ang rock climbing sa atin. Kaya napaka interesting panuorin itong subculture ng mga rock climbers sa ibang bansa.  Free Solo ay isang sub genre ng rock climbing kung saan ito ay dangerous dahil mag cclimb sila mag isa and without the use of a safety rope, isang maling apak or mag slip na finger ay siguradong patay na sila. Halina at makinig sa aming documentary review of this Oscar Award Winner of Best Documentary 2018 - Free Solo. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

“Hay nako! Kinaen nanaman ng social media!” Yan ang madalas naming tutya sa isa’t isa kapag kami’y absorbed masyado sa aming phone at di nakami makausap ng maayos. Para bang nawawala ang aming kaluluwa at kinakaen ng digital world.  Ikaw ba’y nagiging zombie din tuwing nagbbrowse sa iyong phone? Wala nang marinig or mapapansin? Hindi ka nag-iisa. Tayong lahat ay may sakit - aminin man natin or hinde. This Teach Me Tuesday ay kami ang inyong magiging professor tungkol sa subject na Digital Detox.  Tulad nga ng sinasabe nila noong 90s - kailangan mo nang mag REDUCE (di pa uso ang word na diet noon). Tayo’y mga obese na sa kaka consume ng social media, ubos na ang ating attention span. Ready ka na ba to get back to 100% attention span? Gamitin ito upang ating makamit ang ating mga dreams and aspirations in life. If you are ready, then let’s begin. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

Start Your Monday by watching the commencement speech of Steve Jobs sa Stanford noong 2005. This will start your week right and mapapa isip ka sa mga goals and aspirations mo in life. This speech is worth listening to once every year. Recently, may mga nameet kaming mga friends who are polar opposites - one was a technician and one was entrepreneurial. One was living in the real world and the other in an ideal world. They were both right, and they needed one another to thrive. In today’s Motivation Monday we urge you to nurture the foolish nature of the Entrepreneur. Don’t kill their vision but we should push them forward into bringing the innovation to fruition. Mapa sa business, career, creative endeavour or personal goals - kinakailangan na manatiling gutom at foolish.  --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

These past few days a couple of our friends opened up to us about their mental health - anxiety and depression. Ito ay isang serious na usapan na kami ay ill equipped to talk about dahil hindi kami expert or medically trained to do so.  This Serene Sunday gusto naming buksan ang topic for discussion. Kung ikaw ay may pinagdadaanan na depression or anxiety, loneliness, sadness, or grief - nandito kami upang makinig sa’yo. I hope you find a bit of relief through this episode, and you discover hope.  Dahil sa ating journey ay siguradong may madadapa at masusugatan, but it doesn’t take away our chances of standing up and moving forward. Take a seat. Take a sip of tea. And let’s start talking about depression.  --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

Travel is life. Going to different countries has never been this cheap. Dati mga mayayaman lang ang pwedeng mag-travel, ngayon super budget friendly na pumunta sa ibang bansa. Pero hindi naman necessarily na dapat lahat out of the country, minsan natatake natin for granted ang out of town trip. Ito ay equally relaxing at satisfying. Mas mura pa! This Sabbatical Saturday ating pagusapan ang mga out of town vacation trips. Kung nasan ka man, I’m sure merong karatig na probinsya na pwede mong i-explore ng isang weekend. Since kami ay from Pampanga, mahilig kaming mag explore up north - Baguio, La Union, Pangasinan, Ilocos, etc. Napaka rich ng atin bansa - ang daming pang sulok na hindi napupuntahan.  Lagi nga nilang sinasabe - galing ka na sa iba’t ibang bansa, bakit sarili mong bansa hindi mo bisitahin? And ito ang challenge sa atin today - It’s More Fun in the Philippines, so let’s unravel it’s joy and glory. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

What if pag-gising mo bukas iba na ang katawan mo? Iba na ang gender mo? What if nagpalit kayo ng katawan ng significant other mo? This Fantasy Friday we use the Body Swapping Trope na ginagamit sa pelikula at novels. Di ba interesting to explore kung ano ang experience na maging ibang tao? Noong bata ako iniisip ko pano pumasok sa consciousness ng iba - maging professor X. Anong unang gagawin mo sa body swap? Ano ang trigger - kinagat ng spider na may radiation, full moon, or wish na binigay ni genie? --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

Recently I was asked kung ano ang religion ko. Ikaw? Ano ang religion mo? For the longest time, we’re not actively talking about religion or politics as I think that these topics are divisive. People are on the polar opposite ends of the spectrum. If you are easily triggered by religious topics please skip this one. If you are like us - lukewarm and open to a healthy discourse, then press play. We are not shoving any religion to your throat but we are discussing on how we should see the role of religion that plays in our lives. We would love to hear your thoughts (not so much violent reactions). This is by far one of our longest episodes to date - enjoy the discussion on religion. --- 💻 Watch on Facebook: http://facebook.com/goodmorningnicoleprax

Noong Elementary Days, uso ang Anime sa TV. Uuwi, gagawa ng homework, kain ng early dinner, at manunuod na ng dragon ball z, pokemon at Ghost Fighter! These days di na ako updated sa mga anime at nag mature na ng kaunti. Pero nais ko balikan ang aking kabataan noong napapa mangha ako sa mga fantasy na binubuild ng mga anime creators.

“Build it and they will come.” Yan ang battle cry ng mga creators. Basta magaling magluto - tayo na tayo ng restaurant. Marunong ako gumawa ng kape - gawa na tayo ng cafe. Mahilig akong uminom - gawa na tayo ng bar. Ganyan lang ka simple ang business noh? Akala ko noon ganun lang kasimple, akala ko basta mabuo mo ay tapos na ang pelikula.  Pero mali ako, wala pa pala sa kalahati yung paggawa ng produkto. Kailangan mo palang magbenta at kailangan mong ipaalam sa merkado na ika’y nag eexist - at ito ang Marketing. This Teach Me Tuesday, tuturuan namin kayo ng Marketing 101.

🤯“Bakit?” Ito ang pinaka importanteng tanong na dapat mong masagot. 😓Bakit ka nagtyatyaga? Bakit ganito ang kalakaran? Bakit ganito at ganyan? 🧐 It is in challenging the norms of our lives where we begin to stop being complacent about it. 🙊 Complacency is often disguised as being content, but it is far from it. It is in knowing the difference where our quality of life improves. ✋ Magiging complacent ka nalang ba with your situation?
