Your network will always be more important than your net worth š¤>š°
Not because it sounds good on a shirt
But because itās the reason Iām still here
Still growing
Still showing up
Iāve learned this in locker rooms and hospital rooms
From playoff celebrations
To quiet corners where people just needed someone to sit with them and sayā¦āI got youā
Harvard studied this for 75 years
And what they found wasnāt shocking to someone like me
The people who lived the longest, fullest lives
Werenāt the ones with the most money
But the ones with the strongest relationships
And maybe thatās why being Filipino feels like a secret superpower
We were raised to care first
To make sure every guest eats before we do
To give up our comfort if it means someone else can breathe easier
To love so loudly it echoes through generations
Thatās why we make incredible nurses, caregivers, healers
Because our greatest wealth has always been our heart
And in this world that moves so fast
That tells you to hustle and grind
To collect things and chase numbers
I just want to say this:
Be kind
Be present
Be someone who remembers birthdays and shows up when itās inconvenient
Because kindness is the kind of currency that never crashes
Money may open doors
But love is what keeps the room warm
Iāve built a life in many places
But the only thing that truly lasts is the love you leave behind
So hereās to the teammates who became family
The mentors who saw something in me
The strangers who turned into lifelong friends
And to anyone who ever said
āThank you for making me feel seenā
Thatās the real wealthšš½
Special shoutout to & for making our off day in Orlando that much more special.
