"As cliché as it may sound, "𝙁𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙖 𝙟𝙤𝙗 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙚𝙣𝙟𝙤𝙮 𝙙𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠 𝙖 𝙙𝙖𝙮 𝙞𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚" resonates deeply with me. My journey in corporate life has been about discovering the freedom to enjoy a career that benefits not just me but also those around me. It increasingly feels like life and work are merging, and here’s why:

📌The long hours I invest now are an investment in future free time.
📌My relentless pursuit of learning nurtures skills that will lead to greater opportunities ahead.
📌Each challenge I encounter guides me toward my true path.
📌Commuting across the metro—thanks to Angkas 🏍🤣—feels worthwhile as I bring opportunities to places that need them.
📌Journeying with Surge Freelancing Marketplace , from bringing face-to-face training in Davao to Surge Training Center - QC South and soon in Rosario, Cavite, has been incredible.
📌Together, we’re forging opportunities for women, the underprivileged, working students, career shifters, and so many others.

I am grateful for the strangers who have become friends, recognizing our shared potential and PASSION FOR SERVICE as we open doors in our communities this coming November. This would not have happened if we had not met during the Cavite Freelancers Meet-Up at Co-Lab. Special thanks to Kathy Cabradilla, for believing in me. I look forward to building a supportive community in Rosario, Cavite, to create flexible freelancing options that allow us all to thrive."

Would you like us to host another meet-up and free workshop and see how this community can help you shift and start your freelancing journey? DM us or comment, and we will arrange another exclusive meet-up as a preview before our doors open this November for face-to-face training opportunities.

Love,
Your friends from Co-Lab
