I haven’t blogged in a long time.
Not because I didn’t have things to say…
but because I kept waiting to feel ready.
I told myself I would write again when my energy was back to 100%.
…When my emotions were settled.
…When my health felt more stable.
…When life felt lighter.
But the truth is…

Last month, I was in such a different place.
September felt hopeful. I had just celebrated reaching my financial goal way ahead of schedule — in August, no less! 🥂 I remember feeling proud, grateful, and full of energy. I even wrote about my excitement to finally start doing things differently. I wanted to create from a place of joy. I aimed to explore projects that truly spark something in me.
I thought October would be the month I’d ride that wave of momentum.
But here I am… and it doesn’t feel that way at all.

When 2024 ended, I called it “a year of growth, celebration, and dreams taking shape.” (Read it here).
Then in February this year, I wrote about how it was “the month I finally chose me.” (You can read that post here)—and that choice changed everything. I started saying no to things that drained me.

This post was written in August 2025, during a time of intense public discourse in the Philippines around government corruption, political dynasties, and ongoing lifestyle checks on public officials and their families. It is a personal reflection anchored in the national conversation—one that continues to evolve.
I don’t usually talk about politics. But today, I will.
More than two decades ago, I worked in a large government agency. I was 24-29 years old, earning a salary most people my age could only dream of. My position was high, my pay was even higher—equivalent to that of a VP or top-level manager.
How did I get there?

I Hit My Big Financial Goal—5 Months Ahead of Schedule!
When this year started, I wrote down a quiet, deeply personal goal.
It wasn’t about going viral or building an empire. It wasn’t even something I shared with a lot of people.
It was simply this:
To reach a financial milestone I had never hit before.
By December 31, 2025.
At the time, it felt impossible. Insurmountable.
But as of August 2, I’ve done it—five months early.
And I’m still in awe.
