5 Women Who Inspire and Empower Other Women Online and in the Real World
Antoinette Taus (@antoinettetaus)
Filipino-American actress, humanitarian, and Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Environment Programme, Antointette Taus, is a long-time fixture in the local entertainment industry. Recognized as one of the most influential role models of the youth of her generation, Antoinette's main mission is to empower the youth to take the lead in the transition toward a future that is centered on the betterment of people and the planet—without leaving anyone behind. She founded the non-profit organization “CORA” (Communities Organized for Resource Allocation) and the purpose-driven business “The Sustainable Planet”, which are dedicated to creating sustainable programs and solutions to help solve global issues focused on hunger, poverty, inequality, mental health, plastic pollution, and climate change.
For Antoinette, in order to be supportive of other women, you must
first, be kind.
"Uplifting each other, being kind to each other, not judging each other. Just imagine, you don't even have to look for support if naturally we just always tried to either to be kind or uplift everything around us that women and the girls are doing." -- Antoinette Taus
Pau Kimberly (@paukimberly)
Self-love advocate, Pau Kimberly, uses TikTok as a platform to make others feel
better about themselves. In a lot of her videos, she encourages her followers,
the women in particular, to rise up after each fall. In Pau's content, one
powerful message that we all need to hear shines through - "You are
enough."
"We as a society are not yet used to women standing up for themselves, women that are strong and independent, women that are empowered, women that are not believing in timelines, women that are very career-driven. I use my platform to raise awareness that we shouldn't care about others' opinions. We as women are enough, and are worthy, in our own rights." -- Pau Kimberly
Veronica Limcaoco (@beloynica)
Veronica "Ron" Limacaoco is an active member of Girls Got Game PH (@girlsgotgameph), a non-profit organization that works to empower young women through sports. The group organizes roving sports camps in underprivileged areas throughout the Philippines. Here, girls can learn how to play different sports, which helps them build self-confidence. As a result, Girls Got Game PH actually helps to build our country's future, one self-reliant woman at a time.
Veronica believes that women must work together to empower one another.
"There's no one perfect way to do things, like we are all after the same goal - Women empowerment. We are just doing it differently, I might be doing it through sports but in the end we only have the same goal, and it's impossible for one person, one organization to do it all. So, the best thing to do is work together." -- Veronica Limacaoco
Nove-Ann Tan (@ihomeschoolph)
Homeschooling advocate, Nove-Ann Tan, is a hands-on homeschooling mom who also provides support for other homeschoolers. She has also authored two books, "I Homeschool: How to Homeschool Without Losing Your Mind" and "Happy Wife, Happy Life", and hosts a weekly podcast where she shares valuable insights and information about homeschooling.
For Nove-Ann, it is important to make other women feel that they are
not alone in whatever they may be going through.
"It's making a message that 'Hey, you are not alone, I am here.' Magtulungan tayo. Never be ashamed of your your weakness, of what you're going through, because you will never know, you'll be a blessing. May isang taong lang na mag-swipe sa TikTok mo, kahit na isang tao lang ang matulungan sa message mo, it would be very valuable." -- Nove-Ann Tan
Maica Teves
Maica Teves is the Executive Director of Samahan ng mga Pilipina para
sa Reporma at Kaunlaran (SPARK!) Philippines. SPARK! is an NGO composed of
women who are committed to help empower and elevate more women to become active
partners in national development. Maica feels that there is so much that can be
done each day to show support and encouragement towards other women.
"I've seen time and time again the tangible results of women supporting other women, and I always say that it always starts with even simple daily interaction. There are many ways that women can empower each other - By being a role model, by offering support, celebrating each other's wins." -- Maica Teves

The Fab and Fierce Way to Go and Love Life!
What takes most of your time? For most women, the answer will only revolve around family and work. As we all know, it is natural for women to focus on taking care of others. But as they concentrate on the people they love, they tend to lose focus on their own lives. Some women even end up neglecting their own health and looks.
Merck Philippines launched Sangobion Go Love Life - a campaign that aims to revive a modern woman’s love for life. Last March, Sangobion kicked off the campaign by reminding women of the importance of taking care of oneself and by showing them all the great things that can happen just by changing one’s lifestyle habits.
And more than iron, Sangobion also contains essential vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin C, Folic acid, Vitamin B12, Copper, and Manganese sulfate to build healthy red blood cells and immune system. It also has sorbitol that is an anti-constipating agent that helps manage the side effects of iron supplements! This is definitely the supplement a woman needs to focus on loving life and conquering her day-to-day challenges.
