My bio that nobody asked for but here we are:
Full-time chemist. βοΈπ§ͺ
Part-time lola on a mission. π΅
Deliberately building something β slowly, stubbornly, mine. π»
Built a business between lab reports, church Sundays, recovery days, and eating healthy until someone brings rice π or ice cream π¦
Where Iβm at :
π± building friendships across time zones one message at a time π
π building a dream that ends somewhere near Hawaii β with layovers βοΈ in Canada π¨π¦ and New Zealand π³πΏ for the people I love most π§βπ§βπ§π§βπ§βπ§
π surviving on faith, , airport transfers and FaceTime calls from my kids and grandkids abroad.
βοΈ mentally already on a plane β across continents attending milestones I canβt afford to miss
π pretending I have it together because my Google Calendar is organized
π¦ emotionally attached to mountain views, a girl who chose crab over Disney princess, another smart sporty Disney princess, and a Korean Pinoy with an adorable nose.
π« at this age, still trying to jump on planes, dive into oceans, and climb more mountains β before I fully surrender to lola duties
Also Me :
lola goals,
tired but trying,
and still online at midnight wondering why Iβm sleepy in the lab.
Balancing act:
full time job, online business, healing, hiking, and trying not to compare my chapter 1 to someone elseβs chapter 10.
If you want someone who has it all figured out β¦
this page might disappoint you. π

Some trips arenβt really about the destination. Some days you just need to go where your loves ones used to be.
Tatay used to drive his friends here every Pahiyas and took Nanay with him . No room for the kids.
Last week I finally went β mostly because I missed them.
Walking those streets, I just smiled and thought β so this is what you loved .
And for a moment, I felt them close. πΎ
ife does not care about your business plans.
It does not care about your posting schedule.
It does not care about your consistency goals.
It does not care about your momentum.
It just β happens.
An accident. A surgery. A health scare. Exhaustion so deep you cannot lift your phone.
This week Mel and [Name] are talking honestly about what happened when life got in the way of their business β and what they did about it.
Because this is the episode nobody in the online business space talks about honestly.
Not the highlight reel.
Not the polished comeback story.
The real moment when everything stopped.
And the decision that came after.
Tonight on Building Out Loud β
β What actually happened when life interrupted everything
β The honest feelings that came with it
β What we did when we could not show up
β How we came back β imperfectly and powerfully
β What we want every woman to know when life gets in her way too
Two former OFWs. One chemist from the Philippines. One nurse from Hawaii. Building honestly β through everything life throws at them.
This one is for every woman who has ever had to pause her dreams because life demanded everything she had.
