Quitting my Job, the Struggles, the Lessons I have Learned and Starting my Blog Artwork

Virtual Besties: This Village Girl Podcast

What does a third world village girl like me knows about personal growth, passion, mental health, creativity, spirituality, entrepreneurship or even podcasting? Few years ago, I moved to a new country to accept a banking job and quit that job without plans nor savings. I moved to a new county again and there, I fell into a deep, dark and cold rock bottom but still refused to return to the corporate world despite holding a degree and having decent qualifications and corporate experiences inside and outside my country, the Philippines, until I find out why this life is still worth keeping. This podcast aims to hold every heart-centered woman's hand in pursuit of what sets their soul on fire. Virtual Besties exists to make sure that women will never feel as alone as I did in my own journey.
