34 stories shared, 34 conversations exchanged, 34 experiences, 34 flavors of life, 34 colors that have resonated with you, and 34 voices that have made ripples with words.

Grateful for these generous individuals who made Season 1 happen!
is a podcast where we interview a diverse selection of individuals about their personal journeys, experiences, realizations, and learned lessons to approaching life. The core principle of the podcast is to “Make a Difference” within oneself and to others as well. Furthermore, the program aims to influence its audience towards positive personal development through the insights and narratives of featured guests. We aspire to create ripples, one voice at a time--hence the podcast title. We want our content to echo with listeners from all walks of life--like when water ripples far and wide when a pebble is cast upon its surface.

While we engage our guests casually during these conversations, we also delve into the deeper and more complex aspects of the issues/topics we discuss. In the grand scheme of things, our podcast strives to bring conversations to the table that matter and shine a light on topics that listeners will hopefully find relatable.

"I was brave, because I was ready."

"Take your time , take that time for yourself"

"Mahalin mo muna ang sarili mo, bago mo siya ipakilala sa iba."
A few of the many lessons we learned from our conversation with Gerhard Krysstopher about his coming-out story, alongside his journey to self-discovery, is the power of embracing yourself, who you truly are, and everything that comes with it. He also discloses his struggles with a very dear loved one before he was accepted for who he truly is by unconditionally showing respect and honesty. It was truly a joy making with you Gerhard! Grateful for your time!
