Ever wonder how Marian juggles multiple roles in life and still makes time to be a doting mom and wife? The Shopee brand ambassador opens up about motherhood in time for Mother’s Day.

Marian prioritizes being a mom above all else

Marian wears many hats as an A-list actress, thriving entrepreneur, and hands-on wife and mother. Despite this, she ensures that she never gets too busy for family. She still dedicates most of her time at home, bonding with her kids and taking care of the household needs. “Alam mo dapat kung kailan ka need ng mga anak mo, ng asawa mo, [You should know when your family needs you] because at the end of the day, family should always come first.” At the end of the day, being a mom is Marian’s most important role in life and her children are her number one fans. Raising her kids to be kind, responsible, and compassionate people is the biggest goal she’s striving to achieve.

Marian rises to the challenges of motherhood

Marian acknowledges the difficulties that come with being a mom, and these have been amplified even more over the pandemic. It’s been tough for her kids who are both at the age of exploration and want to understand what’s happening outside their home. The Shopee superstar shares, “We had to talk to them and explain that there are a lot of changes and limitations because of this pandemic, but still reassured them that things would get better.” With the situation easing up in the last few months, Marian and Dingdong are happy to finally be able to have their kids go out more, meet their loved ones, and travel as a family.

Marian encourages moms to make the most of Shopee’s convenience and variety

Shopee has been Marian’s go-to for her family’s needs and home budols these last few years. She admits to being an impulsive, but happy shopper, adding to cart and checking out all sorts of items that spruce up different parts of her home. “Minsan talaga wala ka nang time na lumabas at mamili para sa sarili or sa pamilya mo kahit gustuhin mo [sometimes we don’t have time to go out and shop for ourselves or for the family even if we want to]. Shopee is very reliable and convenient because with just a few clicks, you get to shop for anything you need and want, all in one place,” says Marian.

Opposing political views in the family? Watch #UsapTayo video

Tweet

In a few days, Filipinos will cast their votes in the May 9 national elections. To say that the road to the elections has been tumultuous is an understatement–it’s no secret that differing political views and miscommunication have put a strain on the relationships within Filipino families.

As a brand that promotes strong and meaningful connections at home, PLDT Home has always believed that the home should remain a safe space for every family member to speak up and listen with an open heart.

This is at the heart of #USAPTAYO, PLDT Home’s newest video that encourages every Filipino family to sit down and have meaningful discussions and create stronger connections at home, especially during the elections.

Wondering how to create an open, safe space in a divided household? Here are some tips to keep in mind:

1. Set the mood for an open, honest discussion. 

Clearly establish that your relationships with each other matter more than loyalties to any candidate, cause, or ideology. So, hold off on reactions or judgments that may hurt or turn off your family members. Remember that everyone’s feelings are valid, but the language of truth is love, softly and humbly spoken.

2. Disarm each other with positive, sincere language

Everyone prefers to be validated so prepare to concede a few things and pivot to positive language. For example, your siblings might be intractably advocating for their candidate, so tell them you admire them for being headstrong or decisive. Just make sure you say this sincerely and authentically.

3. Find a common ground

You may support different candidates but if you bring yourselves to accept that you have more important things in common than not, you would be on better footing for the talk. Your dreams and aspirations, both individual and shared, would be a good place to start.

4. Discuss intelligently but consider feelings

Sure, be ready with logic, facts, and your candidate’s credentials, but do not get drawn into a heated debate. Consider that every individual is different and that one’s decisions may not always be based on logic, but emotions or experiences.

5. Ensure that love is at the center of it all. 

Family members may differ in opinion when it comes to political beliefs, but we must remember to put love in the center of our discussions and in the way that we treat our parents, siblings, children, and other relatives. After all, we can influence each other for the better when we live and love by example.

This coming national election and beyond, let us remember the value of compassionate and meaningful discussions to make better, stronger, and meaningful connections at home.

WWF Ambassadors Pia Wurtzbach and Jeremy Jauncey champion WWF-Philippines’ Build Back Better campaign for Bicol fishing communities

Tweet

Philippine fisherfolk are among the poorest sectors in the Philippines and are among the most vulnerable to natural hazards and extreme weather conditions.

In 2020 alone, three consecutive typhoons devastated Lagonoy Gulf, heavily affecting fifteen municipalities. Whole fishing communities lost not only their homes but also their means of livelihood, their boats.

World Wide Fund (WWF) Philippines has worked with the fishers of Lagonoy Gulf for over a decade in establishing the country’s first sustainable Marine Stewardship Council-certified handline tuna fishery. As committed partners, WWF and the tuna fishing communities collaborated on ways to “Build Back Better” post-disaster, with the latest efforts anchored on replacing the wooden fishing boats that were lost or damaged during the typhoons.

The “Build Back Better” boats, co-designed by industrial designer Mark Victor Bautista and the tuna fishermen, is an innovation combining traditional know-how and state of the art/best practice design technology. The boats will be made of a combination of fiberglass and steel, making for sturdier hulls that can withstand increasing storm intensities. The boats will also have features that will help maintain the quality of tuna catch and support other conditions of the tuna fishery’s sustainable certification.

WWF hopes to raise Php 21 million to deliver 27 units of these Build Back Better boats. One new boat is equivalent in capacity to three traditional fishing boats, and would translate to support for more than 200 families in 15 municipalities in the Lagonoy Gulf area.

Celebrity couple and WWF-Philippines Ambassador Pia Wurtzbach and WWF-USA Ambassador Jeremy Jauncey went on a trip to Albay in late April to meet the Lagonoy Gulf fishermen and see for themselves how the “Build Back Better” campaign is helping fishers improve their livelihood by applying environmental sustainability principles. Pia and Jeremy also went on one of the Build Back Better boats to see up-close the benefits of its design and material.

The couple are staunch supporters of WWF and are known to be passionate about their advocacies.

“It’s high time that our local fishers have more access to stronger boats to make their living. The stories of our fishers represent the challenges faced by thousands of Filipinos who continue to work hard for their families, and we are inviting everyone to help them recuperate through the ‘Build Back Better’ campaign,” shared Pia Wurtzbach.

“This trip to the Lagonoy Gulf has not only been educational for me and Pia but also affirming for us. One boat at a time, we can help change the lives of several fishers and their communities through the ‘Build Back Better’ campaign,” added Jeremy Jauncey.

“We hope that many more people, companies, and organizations join in this Build Back Better campaign because of the long lasting and transformational impact we can make together. Our experience working with the Lagonoy Gulf fishers validates a model for sustainable fishing that has improved community livelihood. We all need to support communities that are at the forefront of addressing environmental issues,” said Ms. Katherine Custodio, WWF-Philippines Executive Director.

WWF-Philippines continues to explore new ways to help the fishers of Bicol as the organization moves further into long-term recovery and sustainability efforts. WWF is committed to its partner communities, most especially those that are in the frontlines of the dual challenge of nature conservation and climate change.
