    Why Hardworking OFWs Still Feel Stuck | Why Count the Cost Exists
    19 Aug 2026

    You left home with a dream.

    Maybe it was to build a house, educate your children, save enough money, start a business, or someday have the freedom to come home on your own terms.

    But after years of working abroad, have you ever stopped and asked:

    “Am I actually getting closer?”

    In the very first episode of Count the Cost, I share why I created this podcast and one simple idea that can change the way we make decisions:

    Every decision has a cost. Every sacrifice should have a purpose.

    Inspired by the principle in Luke 14:28–30, we’ll explore what it means to “sit down and count the cost” before making decisions about money, property, investing, business, career, migration, family, and life abroad.

    This podcast isn’t about telling you exactly what to do.

    It’s about helping you ask better questions, gain clarity, and make decisions that are aligned with the life you actually want to build.

    If you’re an OFW who has been working hard for years and sometimes wonders, “Para saan ba talaga lahat ng ito?”

    Welcome to Count the Cost.

    Let’s build with purpose.
