Sun Life shines a light on real employee journeys with new “Employee Diaries” video series

  

 

Behind every payslip is a story of ambition, sacrifice, and perseverance. For many Filipino employees, the path towards financial stability is paved with everyday struggles – enduring long commutes, managing packed schedules, and balancing multiple responsibilities – all while trying to make their salary last.

 

These realities take the spotlight in Sun Life Philippines’ new “Employee Diaries” video series that highlights the real-life stories of two Filipino employees as they navigate pivotal moments in their financial journeys. The series shines a light on the challenges many employees face and how a reliable Partner for Life can help them live bright now.

 

The Quiet Determination Behind Achieving Your Goals

 

“How I Made My First Million” features Margie Endres, a hardworking employee whose story mirrors the experience of many Filipinos striving to reach their goals. From learning how to stay disciplined despite daily expenses and temptations to shop online to staying committed to long-term goals that once felt distant, Margie’s journey reflects the quiet determination behind a major financial milestone – saving her first million pesos.

 

Through her journey, Margie shows that when Filipinos tap into practical financial strategies and seek guidance from a trusted partner like Sun Life, they can confidently start their financial journey and pursue the milestones that no longer feel out of reach.

In “A Plan for Every Goal”, Kristine Vi Gadayan’s story is one that many employees know well – the constant balancing act between giving your best at work and making space to truly live life to the fullest. As she navigates growing responsibilities and career milestones, Kristine reflects on how easy it can be to let work take over. Her journey is about learning to find balance so that she can enjoy life’s everyday moments while working towards her goals.

 

Kristine demonstrates that with thoughtful planning, clear priorities, and a partner like Sun Life, Filipinos can enjoy the best of both worlds – planning smartly for tomorrow while living fully today.
