Hi there, my name's Angel and welcome to my podcast! I am a twenty something born and raised in the Philippines. I moved to the United States when I was nine and I have been here, sadly assimilating, ever since. The goal for this podcast is to have complete and shameless transparency about how I do not know what's going on, but I am very much ready to elevate and learn. I will be inviting very special voices in this podcast to share their thoughts, comments, & concerns about adulting and life as we know it. This podcast is the epitome of "oversharing but make it caring."I hope to live a life where I get to experience different versions of me. Each one better than the other. Each one excited to grow, be corrected, and learn! I am in no means an over achiever, but I do wish to be above average. *cringeee that was cheesy* ANYWAY, WE OUT HERE FOLKS!

    Ep. 26 Getting to Know Your Adult Self (ft. Stephen Ling)

    In this episode of Above Average S3, I discuss getting to know our adult selves and accepting change in adulthood with Stephen Ling. Life has always been unpredictable, but there's something about being a twenty something that makes change so intimidating, overwhelming, but also worthwhile. Listen in as we reflect on this very exciting period we call being "twenty-somethings."

    Ep. 25 How I Started Liking Myself

    Ep. 25 How I Started Liking Myself

    Hi Pals! In this weeks episode I'll be talking about ways I manage my anxiety and self esteem challenges to FINALLY, for ONCE, begin liking myself. I think we talk a lot about self love, but sometimes love is such an all encompassing term. Sometimes you can even love something but not like it. You know what I mean? I wanted to focus on liking myself because I personally think it's harder. You can't just choose to like yourself, unlike love  (sometimes). There needs to be reasons to "like"...which is why I discuss regulating anxious and low self esteem thoughts in this episode. Hope you enjoy!

    Ep. 23 Wisdom I live by (Fave. Quotes)

    Hello! Welcome back dear listeners. For the first episode of Season 3,  I wanted to share some wisdom that has shaped me for the better. As I continue to grow and get to know myself in my 20s, I can seriously say that these quotes have been my guiding principles. I hope to be the most authentic version of me in every phase of my life, and I would not be able to do it without inspiration  and wisdom from the universe. I hope you enjoy!

    As a reminder, and to set our intentions for Season 3, I want to focus on "authenticity" whatever that means to you, me, and everyone else. So listen in as we elevate each other's authentic selves!

    Love,
    Angel
