MAD Kwentuhan 45 with Kuya Jao: "Turning Life’s Challenges into Inspiration” - a podcast by I am M.A.D. (Making A Difference)

MAD Knb?

At certain moments in our lives, we are faced with great and challenging trials. But how are we able to manage and transform these into opportunities?

In this MAD Talks episode, our lively hosts, Big Jay and Lord Jay, are joined by one of our resident podcasters and International MAD Ambassador, Kuya Jao, also known as “Small J”, as he narrates his experiences on how he was able to manage and turn his life’s challenges into inspiration.

Kuya Jao  placed 7th in the Philippine Nursing Board Exam back in 2015. He then moved to Australia to study again. He is currently based in Canbera, Australia, working as a registered nurse. Before becoming a full-fledge nurse abroad, he had to go through a lot of challenges to support himself financially while studying. He went from selling fish in the market to cleaning the toilet and a lot more.

Kuya Jao’s story is a testament to the saying that life isn’t always a bed of roses, but he was able shift these trials as opportunities for growth. As what Kuya Jao shared, “Living a good life is not about having better or having more than others. It’s about having a more positive perspective in every circumstance that is given to us.” When we embody optimism and pursue life as an opportunity, it helps us to get through any obstacle. It can help us move from a state of fear and anxiety into empowerment and inspiration. We are never sure of what lies ahead, but one thing is certain, our future is always full of possibilities.
