So my daughter and I had a convo for her podcast on surviving adhd in the family, mothering and the importance of doing inner work to manage the stories we carry in our heads and in our hearts.

So many thoughts running in my head while we were doing this. Once upon a time I thought we were destined to not get along just as my mother and I could not see eye to eye despite all the confused love in our hearts.

Now I can happily say I would still want for this smart, funny, authentic woman to be my friend had I not won the life lotto of being her mother. Aba’y agaling.

Inner work is not an easy road. But heck yeah, the journey home to self is worth it. Had we not been intentional about our own healing, we would have just continued with our generational patterns.

If you ask me why reframing your mother-ache story matters, why understanding the stories we carry is key to your self-awareness, why good parenting starts with self-awareness— this. This is why. 🧡

Writing saves me. Again and again. And again.

No, not the ‘get your grammar all perfect and your sentence construction flawless’ kind of writing.

The writing that saves me is raw, imperfect and vulnerable. Scary and freeing. Where all the stories playing in my head go on paper and I’m able to see — is this still for me to carry? Or can I tell this differently, kindly? Your stories are powerful. It matters most how you tell them to yourself.

That’s why I’m SO PASSIONATE about this because I know what it feels like to be so uncomfortable in your own skin — to wonder if they’ll still like you when you’re not performing — to be afraid to just be yourself and still be okay.

Your stories are safe here.

Early Bird ends today. DM me for details. If you got this far then yes, this is for you.

You keep being strong for everyone. But who holds YOUR story? 🧡

The exhaustion isn’t just physical — it’s the weight of unexpressed truths, unprocessed grief, and years of putting yourself last. Guided expressive writing isn’t journaling. It’s a structured path back to yourself. ✨

Stories We Carry — an online journaling workshop for women ready to finally come home to themselves. Our stories heal when they are told in safe spaces. You are safe here. 🤗

Part 1 starts May 30, Saturday 10 AM - 12 NN (Manila time) via Zoom.

Happy Birthday, my Ai Baiee! ♥️👼♥️ Thank you for choosing me to be your Mama. I used to draw your face when I was younger and when you were born, you looked exactly like my drawing.

The doctors said you would be born on May 21. But on May 1, you started to make your presence felt. Ayaw tuloy maniwala ni Loly. Sabi nya, nakiki Labor Day lang daw ako. You were born on the morning of May 2, the most beautiful baby in the nursery. When I was ready to take you home, the nurses at the nursery said, “Ay uuwi na yung magandang baby!”

The next day, I realized I didn’t know how to bathe you. Nor did I know how to anything mother. Panic gripped me. I called your Ninong Pao, crying. “I don’t know how to give her a bath!” He sent Nanay Pacing who balanced you effortlessly from hand to hand, her thumb and forefinger securing your ears while you cooed, happy and content. That feeling of not knowing what to do, stayed with me for many years. Until the day we were in front of the principal and I heard her saying what your “proper life choices” should be. To this day I don’t know how I found the courage to say, “Her life, her choices. I will make sure we play by your rules. But you will not dictate on her choices. Neither will I.” Wampoint for motherhood.

In college, you must’ve decided you were going to be a rebel. Haha, kinarma ako! And whenever I would be angry at you, you never answered back. Just stared at me with eyes like daggers. I remember thinking, “Hala paano na?!” But at the same time, I was thinking— “Ay, matapang! Very good!”

And just like that, here we are. You, celebrating your 38th year. Me, wanting to gather even the smallest of memories while I still can. Take your time on the things that matter, Baby Girl. Never let fear dictate your choices. Allow yourself to be loved. The world is safe now, because you have made it so.

I want you to know I am SO PROUD OF YOU, not only during your wins but especially when you are uncertain and afraid and then you come from the heart and make the best choices. I am proudest of you then.

Thank you for choosing me to be your Mama. I hope you choose me in the next life and always. I love you. ♥️ 👼♥️

You have stories that are aching to be told. You know those ones— the loop stories that hold you back from being your most joyful, authentic Self.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re living on the surface of yourself, always holding it together, always showing up for everyone else — this is your invitation to Come Home to Yourself.

STORIES WE CARRY is a gentle, guided online journaling course for women who are ready to meet themselves —— the shadow parts, the inherited voices, the mother-ache, the exhaustion of perfection —— and begin to write their way back to who they truly are before the world told them who they should be. Our stories heal when they are told in safe spaces. You are safe here.

I’m Leah C. Eriguel of Heartworks Healing, a certified narrative coach and writing through transitions coach —— and I believe when you finally tell your Hero Story, it is the most powerful and transformational thing you own. I see this time and again with my coachees, so I’m excited to share this magical journey with you.

Part 1 starts May 30, Saturday
10 AM - 12 NN (Manila time) via Zoom.
Introductory Fee is 5K.
Early Bird is P3,500 until May 15.
Inclusive of pre and post work worth 10K!

Journaling provides a safe harbor for your rawest Self, where you don’t have to present the put-together version of you that is in truth, so so so tired.

In this safe space, a community of like-hearted women yearning to listen and be heard, you will rediscover Your Own Voice— not who you should be — but who you want to be. And that is okay.

Journaling is a powerful Self-Care tool that reminds you— Your Stories Matter.

Message me for details on how to join our intimate group in May.

What do I love most about what I do?

It’s seeing someone see their stories in a kinder light. Befriending the parts of themselves they thought were cringey. Learning to talk to themselves like someone they love. Realizing the love you need starts from within. And that you are beautiful in all your wild imperfections, so full of possibilities — just as you are.

I love it most because with every coachee I remember the feeling of disliking myself so much I wanted to crawl out of my skin, the shame, the masking, the exhausting pretending, pretending. And slowly, eventually the freedom of writing my deepest darkest in a safe space, the hard-earned ease of coming home to me.

If you are feeling an indescribable inner ache, this may be for you. 🧡

I want this here, today of all days even when your 1st ever comp was last Feb. 7.

You were only 5months in, went up against someone who had way more experience and stripes on his belt. You knew the chances of winning were slim yet you chose to compete. To me, you were already a winner then.

The best part? You took that last game to the distance and did a Rocky I! So proud of you, Son. (Also super proud you had zero injuries but I can see you rolling your 🙄)

The bestest part? Was seeing your Ate cheering for you from across the miles— really made my heart sing. It was a single mom moment and I’m chronicling it here.

Because it’s been a tough few months. All the more why you showing up was, still is— GOLD.

I’m posting this today. I know your father woulda been proud. And we’ve all been sick & low batt for days so it helps to remember the wins.

Keep going. Keep failing beautifully then get up to try again. And again. That is the true definition of a Master.
