“Synchronicity lights up your soul’s calling.”Dr. Claudia Thompson

To experience synchronicity, everything must fall into alignment while we listen to our intuitions and define ourselves in the world. The frequency of faith heightens when we follow our soul’s calling. We should stay present and focus on the signs and synchronicities around.

Always focusing on the present moment, I begin my awakening journey by tapping into the infiniteness of my being. It is a process that is anchored in faith and unconditional love over fear. I am starting to see things differently and removing my fears due to all my limiting beliefs that are in my subconscious.

Coming from a dark night of the soul, I am moving forward with higher vibrational emotions. Now, I flow into my life while staying in my authenticity. I used to feel hurt and betrayal around the week of June 24, my ex-wedding anniversary. Today, I look at it with fondness of a former life well-lived with no regret.

My continuous path to peace and happiness has brought me back to my love for and joy in travel. As I immensely enjoy my travels to the Czech Republic, Germany and France, I am ready to go home and be with my family. I have missed out on the birthday celebrations of good friends like Cindy Yang and Capt. Stanley Ng.

To celebrate Cindy’s milestone, gracious hosts Ricco and Tina Ocampo invited special friends for lunch with endless chitchat. For the popular and well-loved Captain Stan, big boss of PAL, event goddess Ana Amigo got the celebration started with cocktails and appetizers that set the stage for an evening of fun and laughter.

Feta Mediterranean Café pulled out all the stops with a delicious mezze buffet that had everyone’s tastebuds dancing with delight. From hummus and tabbouleh, all the dishes served at the table by Feta’s Michelle Ketenci were impressive.

The atmosphere was electric with DJ music that filled the air with joy and laughter. Captain Stan was surrounded by his closest friends, all eager to toast to another year of life and adventures. His infectious smile and boyish charm captivates everyone, making it clear why he is so loved.

Launch party

Before my Europe trip, I went to Home Mavericks Rockwell showroom for an exclusive launch party. The event introduced Bernhardt’s award-winning Power Motion Collection (Available at the Home Mavericks Rockwell showroom located at the ground floor of One Rockwell, East Tower, Makati; visit homemavericksinc.com), which blends cutting-edge technology with luxurious design. The evening was a grand affair, attended by an illustrious mix of interior designers, architects and esteemed members of the press.

Eric Mendoza, president of Home Mavericks, summarized the collection’s appeal: “It’s better than buying a first-class seat because you take the luxury and comfort home.”

This sentiment was echoed by AVP Elisha Mendoza, who said, “What makes Bernhardt special? It’s rooted in great design, and great design transcends what meets the eye.”

The evening’s highlight was the announcement that the Bernhardt Aldo Power Motion Sectional Sofa has won the Pinnacle Award for Motion Upholstery from the International Society of Furniture Designers (ISFD). Often referred to as the “Oscars of Furniture,” this accolade celebrates the Aldo Power Motion Sofa’s exceptional design, functionality and contribution to motion upholstery.

Host Janeena Chan did a wonderful job showcasing the furniture pieces, and I saw her again at the grand opening of KNatural Beauty and Skin Studio, a new oasis inspired by K-beauty traditions. Located in Ortigas Center, KNatural opened to over 120 guests eager to explore Korean skin care and beauty techniques. The shop’s serene and modern interior, accented with Korean aesthetic and style, set the stage for a night of indulgence, discovery and merriment.

Comparing the launch to how Psy started the K-Pop revolution in Gangnam, Dr. Chris Kim, founder of Le Diamant and director of C&C, KNatural’s medical partner in Korea, said, “I truly believe that KNatural will be able to bring K-beauty to the Philippines and to other parts of the world as well.”

Reflecting on the harmonious blend of Korean and Filipino cultures, Dr. Clarissa Cellona, a distinguished dermatologist and board member of KNatural, led the toast to “a future of glass skin, confidence and the beauty of shared cultures.”

Guests enjoyed traditional Korean refreshments, music, gift bags with full-sized products of exclusive brand MGDD and a contest called “Glow More, Worry Less,” giving five winners the chance to experience KNatural’s Porcelain Glow Facial for free. Skin-care experts provided personalized consultations, tailoring regimens to each guest’s unique needs.

The board member team, led by Dr. Jaime Cruz (CEO, JTC Group of Companies and KNatural), Albert Lee (COO, KNatural), Dr. Gerald Sy, Dr. Clarissa Cellona and Charlie Go, along with Korean medical experts Dr. Chris Kim and Dr. Gloria Song (CEO of VandS Clinic, Seoul), and special guests Jang Mi-Kyung (chair of PnB Group) and Dennis Uy (special envoy to Korea), officially opened KNatural with a ribbon-cutting, marking the beginning of a new era in beauty and wellness in Manila.

The clinic’s commitment to authentic and accessible K-beauty, innovation and client satisfaction promises to make it a beloved destination for enhancing natural beauty.

Believing in divine timing, I am embracing each adventure with self-love while making appropriate boundaries to protect the energy of peace and happiness. I am ready for my new chapter!
