Iya Villania and Marian Rivera shares their take on what it’s like being a woman of today
When we were younger, our world revolved around our mother. But back then, we couldn't believe our mothers were such a positive force. The things they do on a daily basis keep the world going, and without them, so much would not be accomplished.
Moms nowadays wear many hats and play many roles, and the expectation to have it all can be high. Moms must strike a delicate balance between business and parenting, so here are two mothers who have figured it out: Iya Villania- Arellano and Marian Rivera- Dantes!
Iya Villania - Arellano is an actress, singer, model, and TV presenter (what can’t she do?) Known for her work as a VJ on Myx, this multi-talented multi-hyphenate is a mother of four. She somehow finds time to be a parent on top of everything she does.
Iya gets her strength from her children. She says: these days, their opinions matter more than anything else. he wants her children and her children’s children to experience Mother Earth in all her beauty. That’s why she tirelessly pursue sustainable living so her children can live in a better world. In her advocacy, she found a reliable and like-minded partner in Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation. The company has launched in the market the first-ever seasoning product in paper packaging, the AJI-NO-MOTO® Umami Seasoning 45g which is made from natural and renewable paper material that can be planted, grown, harvested, and replanted
She believes that women’s month is more than just about celebrating women’s beauty and strength, but also their voices. She is using hers to build a better world for her children. She’s not the only one who is giving her all for what she believes in. Another mom to highlight is Marian Rivera-Dantes!
Marian Rivera-Dantes needs little introduction. This celebrity powerhouse wows us again and again with acting, modeling, hosting, and running a business! On top of all that, she’s even a mother of two. Becoming a mom has made Marian hyper-aware of her children’s health, and she knows that other women all over the Philippines are just as concerned about their children.
She is big on education and explaining. She gently and patiently includes her own kids in her cooking. She talks to them about how to incorporate veggies rather than fighting with them about it. According to her, it’s not just about telling them not to eat sweets; it's about incorporating them into the cooking. We should be teaching them what ingredients are for and how flavors interact. She’s been involved with nutrition education advocacy, and she lives it every day. She and Zia leads the “I Love Veggie-Licious” campaign introducing new era of cooking for kids to enjoy vegetables made delicious with Aji-Ginisa® Flavor Seasoning Mix.
Both these women are a shining example of creating a positive impact with their passion and influence, and Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation has been a long-time partner of these two Moms as “Eat Well, Live Well” ambassadors.
They are a powerful force with platforms to reach millions, and they use that to do as much good as they can, not just for themselves but for the children who will take over after us.
Marian and Iya both understand what Mom used to make. It’s not just the dishes that make us feel comfortable; it's not just the lessons she taught us. It’s also the change moms make in the world. Moms make change by teaching us how to be good citizens and they start by modeling how to live well, and eat well.
Let’s celebrate women this women’s month, not just the literal moms but all the dog moms and the aunties and all women. Let’s join them in making a change and making the world better, everyone doing their part. Marian and Iya are doing theirs, what can you do?
