Ep 32. Isi Laureano - Remember to Love Yourself Along the Way
In this episode #32, we speak with Isi Laureano. Isi is so passionate about food, she says that you would have to chop her hands and legs off to stop her from cooking. She loves her country, The Philippines, and its culture and beauty, but hates the traffic and laziness. Isi's sense of humor is playful, which sometimes you'll see when she is exploring the local markets. Isi loves life and her son, who is her main driver in life. And if Isi could feed everyone who needs a meal, she would.
