Hindi mo nakikita sa buhay ng mga tao,” (if there’s a government, why are things like this? You cannot see in the lives of the people). She believed she could do something.

Ayhee Campos on courage, purpose, and building a legacy
Ayhee Campos is often seen speaking on stages and featured in articles as a trailblazing female leader in a male-dominated IT industry, but she is the first to acknowledge that one, she did not do it alone, and two, she dreams of more women being given the same opportunities as her.

Dr. Joanna Herrera on the importance of self-compassion and aging graciously and joyfully
“When I look at the major choices and paths I’ve taken, I feel extremely happy, grateful, and fulfilled.
