Growing up, like many dreamers, I often fantasized about stepping into the limelight and becoming part of the entertainment industry. The glitz, the glamour, and the thought of performing on national television seemed magical. So, when I heard about auditions for ABS-CBN’s "I Can See Your Voice," I knew I had to give it a shot. It was one of the network's most popular shows, and the idea of even having a second of screen time felt like a monumental achievement. Little did I know, this experience would become more than just an attempt at stardom—it became a lesson in resilience and self-discovery.
The audition process was intense, to say the least. From preparing my story to rehearsing my performance, I poured my heart into every step. However, as the competition unfolded, it became clear that I didn’t quite fit the mold of what the show was looking for. Perhaps I lacked the “star quality” or simply didn’t align with the narrative they wanted to tell. At first, the rejection stung. I questioned whether I was good enough and if I had what it took to succeed in such a competitive space. But as time passed, I realized this was just one path of many—and it wasn’t the end of my story.

When ABS-CBN’s operations ceased, the world of mainstream media shifted dramatically. During that time, I found solace and an incredible opportunity in YouTube. Unlike traditional platforms, YouTube embraced diversity and gave creators like me the freedom to express ourselves authentically. Through this space, I’ve been able to share my life, connect with an incredible audience, and, most importantly, find my voice. I realized that success doesn’t always mean being on TV or winning a contest. It’s about staying true to yourself, creating meaningful connections, and finding joy in what you do.
Looking back, my audition wasn’t a failure—it was a stepping stone. It taught me to value my journey and appreciate the platforms that allow me to be unapologetically me. While mainstream media once felt like the ultimate dream, I now understand there are countless ways to make an impact. To anyone chasing their dreams, remember: every setback is a setup for something greater. The stage is wherever you make it—so make it yours. 🌟
