    129: A Siargao Story of Identity & Self-Love with Ana Mae Alipayo

    In this warm, candid conversation Anamae opens up about growing up in Siargao with a mixed cultural background, reconnecting with her Bisaya roots, and why protecting and serving her island community matters to her purpose. She tells the story of becoming an entrepreneur, starting a surf cafe and holistic surf school and the hard lessons of leadership. We dig into how isolation and self-love led her to build retreats that help women reclaim their emotional wellbeing, and practical reflections on stress, handling customers, and creating safe spaces.


    Top takeaways:


    ✨ Identity matters: reconnecting to language and culture can be a gateway to purpose.

    ✨ Healing is intergenerational: breaking emotional unavailability starts with one person’s awareness.

     ✨ Business + heart: entrepreneurship can be a vehicle for community service and personal growth, but it brings practical and emotional challenges.

     ✨ Isolation can be medicine: time alone helped Anna see herself, set boundaries, and choose peace.

     ✨ Choose your people: surround yourself with those who help you grow; walk away from consistent toxicity.

    ✨ Building a healthier relationship with money and seeing it as energy.

    ✨ Why everything around us is energy and how awareness can shift your life.

    ✨ The power of believing in yourself first, even when no one else does.

    ✨ Finding worth within instead of relying on external validation.

    ✨ The importance of shadow work, self-awareness, and choosing to “do the work” so life can work for you.


    Alongside these lessons, I share my personal experiences of uprooting my family, transitioning from corporate to entrepreneurship, and learning to fully trust the process as I step deeper into my purpose as a transformational life and energy coach.


    This episode is about living with intention, honoring your energy, and creating the reality you want to experience. 🌱


    🔑 Key Takeaways:

    • Money is energy. Align your value and abundance will flow.

    125: My 8-Year-Old Son Told Me He’s Gay

    Episode 125: My 8-Year-Old Son Told Me He’s Gay


    In this deeply vulnerable episode, I share a story that has completely shifted how I see love, parenting, and acceptance.


    At 2 AM, I felt called to record this because it’s one of the most important conversations of my life—the moment my 8-year-old bravely told me he is gay. What followed wasn’t just about my son—it was also about my own journey of healing, self-acceptance, and breaking generational cycles.


    I open up about:

    • The raw moment my son came to me and trusted me with his truth.

    • The fears, flinch, and judgments I had to confront within myself.

    • How acceptance builds safety and connection in the family.

    • Why rejection and shame can create lifelong wounds and broken relationships.

    • My personal story of growing up without emotional safety and how that shaped my parenting.

    • The “sweet spot” where trauma can be passed down—or healing can begin.


    This is not just a story about my child. It’s about the power of acceptance, love, and self-work. As parents, we are our children’s first reference point. If we don’t heal ourselves, they may spend their lives healing from us.



    ✨ My biggest takeaway: acceptance is love. Safety begins at home, and when we accept ourselves, we create the space to accept our children fully.



    🔑 Whether you’re a parent, a child of parents who struggled to accept you, or someone healing from generational trauma, this episode will remind you of the importance of creating safe spaces where love is unconditional.



    👉 If this episode resonates with you, don’t forget to subscribe, share, and leave a review. Let’s keep this important conversation alive. Our children deserve it.

    Episode 124: 33 Things I’ve Learned After 33 (Part 1)


    Welcome to a brand new season of Anyway, Moving Forward!


    I’m Libni, a transformational life & energy coach, mentor, and your go-to girl for all things energy, emotions, trauma healing, and shadow work. This season feels extra special because I’m recording from a new place, stepping into a new version of me, and surrounded by incredible people who are supporting me behind the scenes. 💛


    In this episode, I’m sharing something deeply personal: My viral birthday post, “33 Things I’ve Learned After 33.”We’ll go through the first 10 lessons in detail, not just the words, but the meaning, the stories, and the growth behind each one.


    From learning to protect your peace, to breaking old patterns, to embracing the power of “no,” these are lessons life has handed me through fire, joy, and everything in between.



    ✨ What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

    1. Nothing has meaning except the meaning you give it – how perspective shapes reality.

    2. The only way through is through – facing the fire instead of skipping the hard parts.

    3. It is what it is – the power of surrender and embracing the “isness” of life.

    4. If you don’t heal it, you’ll repeat it – breaking loops and closing old wounds.

    5. You don’t have to be loud to be heard – the quiet strength of presence and energy.

    6. Your space is sacred – protecting your peace as a spiritual practice.

    7. No is a filter – boundaries as a magnet for the right people.

    8. Projection is real – learning more about others by how they speak.

    9. It’s not about you – detaching from other people’s reactions.

    10. You’re not everyone’s cup of tea – letting go of people-pleasing and honoring your truth.


  • 💡 Key Takeaways:

    • Your energy speaks before you do. Nurture it.
    • Boundaries aren’t walls; they’re filters for alignment.

    • Healing is a choice you make over and over.

    • Surrender isn’t weakness. It’s strength in its highest form.

    121: Living in Alignment & Flow with Russ Juson

    Episode Title: Living in Alignment & Flow with Russ Juson


    In this episode of Anyway, Moving Forward with Libni, I sit down with someone who’s played a full-circle role in my own journey — my first mentor, a man whose work has impacted countless lives in the Philippines and beyond: Russ Juson


    Russ isn’t one to box himself in with labels like “coach” or “mentor.” Instead, he’s a living embodiment of what it means to grow, evolve, and live in alignment. From starting out with nothing at 21, to building success in the old 3D “hustle” world, to transcending into the 5D world of ease, flow, and spiritual alignment — Russ shares the truths, lessons, and mindset shifts that change the game entirely.

    We dive deep into:

    • The difference between personal development and personal mastery — and why most people stop at the first stage.

    • What it really means to live in the “new world” of 5D consciousness.

    • How money is simply a byproduct of your energy — and why giving intentionally changes everything.

    • The number one thing blocking Filipinos from stepping into abundance.

    • Why extreme self-care is the foundation for alignment and overflow.

    • Breaking free from scarcity programming, survival mode, and generational trauma.

    • How surrender, trust, and preparation open the door for miracles.

    This isn’t just another conversation about “success.” It’s a masterclass in remembering who you are, breaking the cycle of fear and scarcity, and stepping into a life where ease, flow, and abundance are your natural state.


    If you’ve been feeling stuck, burned out, or wondering why your external success still feels empty — this episode will shift something in you.

    She’s moving out of Davao, her hometown, and into a new chapter in Manila—this time, not running from her past but rooted in stability, self-awareness, and love.


    Through personal stories, reflections, and wisdom gained from her own journey, Libni unpacks:

    • What makes closing chapters so painful—even when we know it’s time

    • Why grief, resistance, and emotional attachment are natural parts of change

    • How to energetically detach with love—not hate

    • The power of creating boundaries that honor your truth

    • Why you can’t keep carrying the past into your future

    • How to choose yourself without guilt

    • What it really means to outgrow people and still love them


    She also opens up about her relationship with her longtime yaya, and why this goodbye feels like a heartbreak. But through it all, she reminds you: you’re allowed to grow, even if it means walking alone for a while.


    🔑 Key Takeaways:

    • Some people are only meant to walk with you for a chapter—not a lifetime.
    • Letting go doesn’t mean you don’t love them. It means you love yourself enough to move forward.

    • You attract what you believe you deserve. Do the inner work, and everything else aligns.


    💌 This episode is for you if:

    • You’re on the edge of a big transition

    • You feel guilty about growing

    • You’re grieving people you’re no longer aligned with

    • You want to move forward—but don’t know how to release the past
