School is officially back, and so are the early mornings, baon prep, endless shopping lists, and long days for parents, especially moms. In the latest episode of Mommy, G Ka Na?, celebrity host and mom of two Jolina Magdangal-Escueta opens up about the pressure of juggling multiple responsibilities during the busy back-to-school season.
Joining her in this candid conversation are fellow celebrity moms Dimples Romana and Angeline Quinto. Together, they share honest stories, practical hacks, and comforting words for moms who may be feeling overwhelmed. Their shared reminder: “Hindi mo kailangang gawin lahat mag-isa.”
The episode is filled with lighthearted moments and practical advice. Angeline swears by the magic of a cute lunchbox to get her son excited about eating. “Kahit simpleng sandwich lang, basta cute ang baunan, ganado na agad si Sylvio,” she says.
She and Jolina also remind moms that meals do not need to be expensive or fancy. Creativity and love are what matter most. “Hindi kailangang mahal ang baon, basta punong-puno ng effort at love, ramdam ‘yan ng mga anak natin,” Jolina shares.
When it comes to errands, shopping, and paying bills, the three moms agree that online solutions are a lifesaver. Using GCash allows them to tick off grocery lists, pay bills, and shop for school needs without leaving the house, even while helping kids with homework.
Dimples opens up about the financial pressure that comes with the school year. From projects and extracurricular activities to uniforms and new shoes, expenses can quickly pile up. Her solution is breaking down big-ticket purchases using GCash GGives, which allows her to split payments into smaller installments with zero down payment.
For emergency expenses, Jolina highlights the convenience of GCredit, which provides a credit line of up to PHP 50,000. And for bigger needs like tuition, GLoan offers up to PHP 150,000 with quick approval and disbursement straight to your GCash wallet. “At least alam mong may masasandalan ka. Hindi ka kakabahan agad,” she says, giving moms peace of mind.
Throughout the episode, one theme stands out. Moms do not have to do everything alone. “Okay lang humingi ng tulong,” Jolina reminds viewers. “May mga kapwa mommy, may mga tools, tulungan tayo.”
