My Coffee Stories

Hey Coffee Friends! Ang bilis, we're half way through 2023. Here's a raw audio of my explanation why I wasn't able to upload any new episodes the last few months. Please don't judge my crying voice. Thanks for always supporting me silently!

Surprise!! Publishing an episode consistently. Yaaay!  Alam ko, I've been very inconsistent this year but I'm still overwhelmed with all the love I received for this podcast! It's still a passion project I can't let go no matter what and I feel like this is a safe space for me to share my life ganaps on the web. I can see myself growing in this podcast and I'd be happy to do more of it this coming 2023!! I'll talk to you more

Hello, Beshies! Regardless if it's New Year or not, you definitely have the chance to try new things. Bianca and I can attest how refreshing it can be. I personally tried a lot of things this 2022 and I'm loving all the experience. Listen to how and why we decided to those things in this episode!

Re-launching "Midnight Buddies" segment in the podcast! Woohoo! Very refreshing to sit down and talk about how we view friendship in our late 20's. I started a Q&A here and feel free to let us know your thoughts on handing toxic friends. We'd love to hear your opinions!

They say overthinking is not toxic. I believe so too because I tend to think a lot too but, I notice how this is already damaging myself and my relationships. So I started calling my thoughts "Duday" to make sure that the next time I buy the thought, it's a conscious choice. 

Hey, excited to start a new chapter for the podcast! I'm just sharing some life updates before I welcome my dear friend Bianca as a regular tambay in the show. Let's catch up!

Lucky, a dear friend, a life coach and the voice behind the "Life Talks with Kuya Lucky" joined me in a discussion about Imposter Syndrome. In this episode, we talked our personal experiences on how we are dealing or somehow dealt with this phenomena. Have you ever felt of this syndrome before and how did you overcome this? Let's talk about that in this episode.

This is very personal! I hope everyone is giving themselves a pat on their back for surviving 2021. It's never easy but look at you, you're still thriving and growing. Hope you get something valuable from my personal reflections.

So good to talk to you again! It has been awhile since we have this kind of conversation. In this episode, I've looked back on how I started and what's keeping motivated to keep on going. I hope this will be helpful for those who'd like to start doing something new in their lives. Please let me know if you like this content by sending a message on my social media.

Welcome to the My Coffee Stories!

Part 2 is up! Also, belated Happy Birthday to my guest, Gel! I'm so blessed to share her wisdom to my dear Coffee Friends. Enjoy listening!

******

I had several cold wars with my guest in this episode! But, asking her to be share her testimony here in the podcast only proves that having some time off with someone you care about helps to grow your relationship more. We often spent hours talking offline but despite of having long personal talks, we still could not stop exchanging our thoughts here in this podcast. So, I decided to cut the episode into 2 parts! Yay! I personally learned a lot from simple talks with my most cared friends and I also hope that you'd be able to get some wisdom in this conversation too.

What's in this episode?

• Forgiveness
• Starting over again
• Our definition of "happiness"

It's up! I've been always passionate in learning little things and I'm excited to share this same passion with my dear friend, Guia. She's a young professional, and despite being 5 years younger, I admire her in so many ways, particularly her desire to learn and grow in both her professional and personal life. Find out what we've been learning lately and how it affects our perspective as young professionals.

I've been blessed to be surrounded by these amazing people who constantly reminds me to have an intimate relationship with God and Khalil is one of those! In this episode, we have tackled our personal struggles and what's our outlook towards facing those difficult times. So happy with my dear friend's transition and I can listen all day with his stories about this journey!

I've been called by different names (especially in grade school) because of my color or how big my eyes are. For a child, we thought this could only be a source of entertainment or fun. We ignore it 'cause it may be natural for kids to tease each other and we grow up normalizing these actions. Partly, it can be true that kids may have said things unintentionally but the scars that it gave us could last for years and worst, it affects the way how we see our identity as a person. Believing that those names our former classmates used to call us are who we are. In this episode, we bring back those memories and talk about how simple teasing impacted us as adults. I brought my former coworkers  and now my dearly friends (Ayie and Bianca) to join me in this episode to share their thoughts and experiences! Enjoy this episode!

Getting personal here, lol! I am finally unveiling my-not-so-special life story to cap my podcast anniversary week. I grew up in a broken family which left a deep scar that I had to deal for 27 years! There was a scenario during my childhood that affected on how I handled relationships, I had difficulty trusting opposite gender and became too independent that it was hard to let other people lead me. Each one of us have our own kind of scars, some are deep and some aren't but it affects our lives somehow. It would take time to completely heal and despite of not wanting to remember the pain of those scars, it would always play a huge role of what we are now.

Happy Valentines, loves! This minisode is quite rush, I was reading a book then I couldn't wait to share my realizations so I immediately record this to share it to you! It's my Valentines's gift. Hope you like it!

It's Friday, lol! Got the chance to continue book notes! Hooray! In this episode, I'll be talking more on what I've picked up from CEO Joel Manby about how he handled leadership. It's only the chapter 3 of the book but it has been already insightful. I'm excited to explore more the other episodes and I wonder it would affect my outlook on being a good leader!
