"Sabi nga kapag binigay ‘yan ni Lord sayo, so kaya mo ‘yan. So ‘yun talaga motto ko sa life. Iiyak lang ako, pahinga lang ako saglit, bukas laban na naman."

Pampito sa sampung magkakapatid ang gurong si Danieca Goc-ong o mas kilala sa social media na si Teacher DanVibes. Dahil siya lang ang nakapagtapos ng pag-aaral sa kanilang magkakapatid, inako niya ang responsibilidad ng pagiging breadwinner sa kanilang pamilya.

00:00 Good morning, take your seats.
00:01 For those who don't know, I'm new to rebanding and my earrings are expensive.
00:05 So don't stress me out.
00:06 Gustok!
00:08 The key must be emphasized.
00:09 K-K-Okay.
00:11 Gustok!
00:12 Kunang bumitaw!
00:15 The fading of must be applied.
00:18 Giliw!

00:53 Hello, Kapuso!
00:54 I'm Dr. Anna Tuazon, your storytelling psychologist at SHAREKOLA.
00:59 We asked you how hard it is to be a breadwinner.
01:04 We'll talk to your "shinner" along with the viral singing teacher,
01:09 Danieka Gokong, also known as Dan Vibes.
01:13 Hello, Teacher Dan!
01:15 Hello, Doc!
01:17 Some people already know the story of your life.
01:22 And one of them is being a breadwinner.
01:24 There are many, right?
01:25 Breadwinner, teacher, viral personality, vlogger, content creator.
01:32 So where did you really start?
01:35 So actually, I was teaching before the pandemic, Ma'am.
01:39 And then when I lost my job,
01:42 I was given the opportunity to get to know you because I was a videographer.
01:48 And then before I started doing tutorials,
01:51 because I lost my job, I really needed to find a job.
01:56 So when I started making videos, it was just for fun.
01:59 And then later on, I didn't think I would be trending or relatable,
02:05 especially to teachers.
02:07 You're still a teacher in your videos, but it's fun.
02:11 Did you do it on purpose?
02:13 Was it natural or exaggerated?
02:16 Actually, Ma'am, I was given a subject called MAPE.
02:21 Because I'm an elementary teacher,
02:23 so my voice isn't that good.
02:25 I'll just do my best, Ma'am.
02:28 I gave it my all to learn.
02:30 It's a good thing that my students are in grade 1 and 2.
02:33 They don't know that I'm going to sneeze.
02:35 That's the power of confidence.
02:40 We just fought, Ma'am.
02:42 And then I was able to rock the music, Ma'am.
02:45 You said that you didn't start because you wanted to be famous.
02:49 You just started because you needed to sing.
02:52 You needed to teach children songs.
02:56 And prior to that, you really needed to earn and support your family.
03:02 Now, I heard that you have 10 siblings.
03:08 Is that right?
03:09 Yes, Ma'am.
03:11 How is the life of a family that big?
03:15 It's hard, Ma'am.
03:16 Sometimes, you can't help but say that you get insecure.
03:21 Because they have things that they can't give or provide to you,
03:26 to your parents, right?
03:27 So I told myself that soon,
03:29 when I finish college, I want to help my parents.
03:34 So, I ended up having 10 siblings.
03:38 I became a teacher.
03:40 I became a professional teacher.
03:43 We call it a first-generation college student.
03:47 Meaning, you didn't set a path for yourself.
03:52 You said that you're the first in your family.
03:56 So, what helped you?
03:58 I told myself that I need to study well.
04:02 So, that's the time that I applied for scholarships.
04:07 I worked every summer job.
04:10 I even gave my mom P300.
04:14 It was so hard.
04:15 And when I told my mom that I want to study,
04:19 she said that I'm very ambitious.
04:21 I told her that I'm in pain and it's hard.
04:26 She asked me why I'm still assuming.
04:28 It came to a point that I borrowed money for my uniform.
04:32 Because my mom said that she didn't want it.
04:34 She said that I should give it to you.
04:37 That's what you wanted.
04:39 But she didn't see that I have a lot of possibilities to study.
04:44 Even in my first year of college,
04:46 I told her that I have the support.
04:49 And in my fourth year, she cried because she was thankful.
04:53 Because I told her that if I stopped or didn't believe in myself,
04:57 I wouldn't be a teacher.
05:00 Why do you want to be a teacher and teach others?
05:03 Because my teachers took care of me.
05:10 They gave me food and clothes.
05:14 I saw the dedication of the teachers for us.
05:17 Because we are a lot in one classroom.
05:20 I saw the teacher's profession.
05:22 I saw how she handles a lot of things.
05:24 I want to be like my teacher.
05:26 To give inspiration.
05:28 That's what I see in my teachers.
05:30 I'm sure that they want to support your family.
05:34 But they don't know how to start.
05:38 How did you experience that?
05:40 You said that you want to help your parents.
05:42 But you want to be a teacher.
05:44 It's not a big amount of money.
05:45 It's a lot of money to be a teacher.
05:46 It's only 300 pesos.
05:49 Even if we are a teacher.
05:51 I need to do a tutorial after class.
05:54 After the tutorial, I will push the entertainment.
06:00 I accept 500 pesos and 300 pesos.
06:03 I will give it to my mom.
06:05 I will keep 100 pesos.
06:07 I will keep it for my passport.
06:09 I will keep it as a reward for myself.
06:11 I will keep it as a souvenir.
06:12 That's my happiness during the time.
06:14 I will give it to my mom.
06:16 I know that I have a lot of siblings who are studying.
06:20 I will give it to my mom as a reward.
06:24 Is there a pressure?
06:26 Because you are the one who finished it.
06:28 You have a professional.
06:30 You have a license.
06:31 I'm sure that you have a lot of pressure.
06:33 I hope that your barangay celebrates.
06:35 Did you have a TARP?
06:37 Yes, ma'am.
06:39 I was the only one who edited it.
06:41 My dad put it on the road.
06:43 So that people will know that someone finished it.
06:47 So, the pressure is there.
06:50 Sometimes, I cry when I'm tired.
06:52 But tomorrow, I will fight.
06:55 Because everything happens for a reason.
06:57 The Lord said that if you are given by the Lord, you can do it.
07:03 That's my motto in life.
07:05 I will cry and rest.
07:07 Tomorrow, I will fight again.
07:09 Do you have a time that you feel like,
07:11 "Wait, I'm having a hard time.
07:13 I can't get what I want."
07:15 Do you have a time that you lost your balance?
07:18 Yes, ma'am.
07:20 Before I was in the peak of my career,
07:25 I was in the first time that I became a boom.
07:27 I had a lot of interviews.
07:29 I joined a lot of shows.
07:31 So, I started a house for my family.
07:36 That's my goal.
07:37 Because we will live in a house, ma'am.
07:39 And our life is hard during that time.
07:41 So, I said that I need to finish this.
07:43 But there came a point that I was in pain.
07:47 Because I was stressed.
07:49 And then, I was happy but at the same time,
07:53 I felt like I need to rest.
07:55 Because I was pressured.
07:57 "Ma'am, you need to do this."
07:59 "Ma'am, my siblings call you this and that."
08:01 So, I said that I have to face whatever they want.
08:09 So, that was the first time that I cried to the highest level.
08:13 Because I was having a hard time.
08:15 Because we are important and we are human.
08:18 We have limitations.
08:19 We get tired and we need to rest and sleep.
08:23 But usually, when we are breadwinners,
08:27 all our savings and income goes to our parents.
08:31 You said that you take care of them.
08:33 Even the house.
08:34 How about having a love life?
08:36 How did you have a love life, Teacher Dan?
08:38 How did you manage to do that?
08:40 Because other breadwinners,
08:42 they don't have time for that.
08:45 Actually, during the pandemic,
08:47 when my account was hacked,
08:49 she helped me.
08:50 So, right after,
08:52 she was the one who visited us.
08:56 She saw the intention that she really likes me.
08:59 She was like, "Ma'am, is that so?"
09:00 So, she managed to do that.
09:03 As of now, even though I'm married,
09:06 it was easy to transition.
09:09 Almost 100% support,
09:12 breadwinner in your family.
09:14 From there,
09:16 you need to prioritize yourself.
09:20 The adjustments were so much, Ma'am.
09:22 Since I got pregnant,
09:23 we were still thinking that
09:25 we should still be there.
09:27 So, everything was okay.
09:28 So, that's where we fought between us.
09:31 Sometimes,
09:32 she said, "You need to think about this and that."
09:36 I understood that for a long time, Ma'am.
09:39 I was still there.
09:40 I was still there in my past.
09:42 It was like that.
09:43 But now, it's easier.
09:46 At the same time,
09:47 they can adjust.
09:49 Sometimes,
09:50 I can't deny.
09:52 I can't say no.
09:54 I should give everything.
09:55 Maybe they can say,
09:57 "I changed. I started this."
10:00 Now, I know how to say,
10:02 "This is how it is.
10:04 You don't have to do anything now."
10:06 So, I can adjust.
10:08 But it's not 100%, Ma'am.
10:10 I still have my pride.
10:13 So, at some point,
10:15 you were thinking,
10:17 "Wait, why is all the pressure on me?"
10:19 I was thinking about that, Ma'am.
10:21 I was thinking.
10:22 Do you know, Ma'am?
10:23 My other siblings also said,
10:26 "This is all I have.
10:28 I don't have anything."
10:29 It's like that.
10:30 It's like that all the time.
10:32 I'm the one who's struggling.
10:34 I said, "We need to contribute."
10:36 This and that.
10:37 They said, "We're just at home."
10:40 It's like that.
10:41 So, I really tried to stop them.
10:44 We'll fight.
10:45 I just tried to stop them.
10:48 I tried to stop them.
10:49 I don't want to fight.
10:53 It's like they forgot
10:55 everything you did.
10:56 Or they don't go to the contest
10:58 and they're like,
10:59 "Wait, this one's pregnant.
11:01 She has a family.
11:02 She has her own expenses."
11:05 And that's it.
11:07 Because you're taking care of your parents.
11:09 It doesn't mean that all of the children
11:11 are your children.
11:13 Maybe they're your grandchildren.
11:14 You should take care of them.
11:16 At that point,
11:17 you'll learn.
11:18 As in.
11:19 As in, Doc.
11:20 We really adjusted.
11:23 We're firm.
11:24 It's a good thing that my husband is there
11:28 to give all of his time.
11:31 Sometimes, the doctor told me
11:34 not to stress the baby too much.
11:37 So, it's a good thing
11:40 that there are programs like this
11:41 to share so they can see.
11:43 We asked the participants
11:45 if they're really struggling
11:48 as a breadwinner.
11:50 One of the participants said,
11:52 "You can do anything.
11:54 You just need to give what your family needs.
11:56 You'll be happy if they're happy."
11:59 And another participant said,
12:01 "You should prioritize your family
12:03 before yourself."
12:04 I'm sure you can relate to this.
12:06 The happiness you feel
12:07 when you see,
12:08 "I made them a house.
12:10 I taught them.
12:12 My siblings."
12:14 What are the joys?
12:16 Because earlier,
12:17 it was like, "Okay, responsibility.
12:18 Be a breadwinner."
12:19 What are the joys of being a breadwinner?
12:22 Even if you're not with them,
12:24 as long as you see them happy,
12:26 that's what you feel.
12:28 So, there's a reward
12:30 when you're a breadwinner.
12:32 Especially when you see
12:34 that they're having fun,
12:35 they're enjoying.
12:36 What's the most memorable outing
12:39 that you gave them?
12:41 On my birthday,
12:42 we went to the pool,
12:44 to the resort,
12:46 and they swam.
12:47 I didn't have the chance to swim with them.
12:49 We're all family.
12:51 We're all adults.
12:52 We have kids and grandchildren.
12:54 So, I brought them there.
12:56 They were so happy.
12:58 I saw that they really didn't want
13:00 to swim in the water.
13:02 It was crazy.
13:03 What were the things you sacrificed
13:05 or put aside first
13:08 because your family
13:09 needs your resources first?
13:11 Actually, the clothes
13:13 that I wanted.
13:15 The lipstick that was expensive.
13:18 Pesos 300 is very expensive for me.
13:20 I couldn't afford to buy it.
13:22 Even if I'm hosting,
13:24 I have to buy it again and again.
13:25 I even went to the market.
13:27 Pesos 500 and 700 are expensive.
13:29 It's too expensive.
13:30 So, I gave it to my mom.
13:33 If I saw someone at the market
13:35 for Pesos 25,
13:37 I was okay with it.
13:39 I could still save money.
13:41 I even bought rice, electricity,
13:46 and my sister's medicine
13:48 for her skin.
13:50 My mom told me that
13:53 I won't have money tomorrow.
13:56 I heard that it's really hard.
13:58 You have to support yourself.
14:00 That's how I really felt.
14:05 Some of our listeners
14:07 talked about the loss of childhood.
14:11 That's why I said,
14:12 "Teacher Dan, you're still lucky."
14:14 Right?
14:15 You were able to stop
14:17 your love life and family life
14:19 before you became 40.
14:21 Right?
14:22 Because some people,
14:23 as Nernia said,
14:25 you're forced to mature
14:28 and think about them first
14:29 before yourself.
14:31 And as Issa said,
14:32 you don't remember
14:34 how you felt when you were 20, 21, 22, 23.
14:38 You felt like you were 50.
14:40 You're old.
14:42 You don't remember how you felt
14:44 when you were young,
14:45 when you were young and hardworking.
14:48 I told you, "Teacher Dan, you're still lucky."
14:52 You're lucky.
14:53 You had space.
14:56 I think that's the mistake
14:57 of other breadwinners.
14:59 It's okay if they don't have love.
15:01 They don't have love for their children
15:03 and their family.
15:04 But if that's what breadwinners want,
15:08 let's not be selfish
15:10 and not be selfish to ourselves.
15:12 Right?
15:13 We should love each other.
15:16 We should take care of each other.
15:17 Right?
15:18 You're right, Teacher Dan.
15:19 You're the one who's taking care of us.
15:22 Because you're the one who's taking care of us.
15:24 Actually, when I was teaching,
15:26 I never looked at the love life
15:28 because I was really busy.
15:31 It was like a pandemic, Mom.
15:33 We had time to explore something new.
15:36 I was just very happy.
15:38 I saw that I was 27 years old
15:41 and I was turning 30.
15:43 It was really hard.
15:44 Our baby was still too young.
15:46 We were getting old.
15:48 We didn't have a source of income.
15:49 I thought, "This is already the right time."
15:52 I thought,
15:54 "Maybe it's time for me to choose also myself."
15:57 I was able to decide that.
16:00 That's very important.
16:03 Because some people feel that
16:04 when they choose themselves
16:06 or their own happiness,
16:08 especially when it comes to a love life,
16:11 having a boyfriend, having a wife,
16:14 some people feel guilty.
16:17 Have you ever felt guilty?
16:18 When you go out,
16:20 I'm sure you spend a lot on dates.
16:23 Yes, Doc.
16:24 As in, I really have that.
16:26 I really hope that you go home
16:28 and love your family.
16:30 I know this is a big help to them.
16:32 But sometimes I say,
16:33 "I'm not experienced in this."
16:36 I have that.
16:37 I'm just comforting myself.
16:40 Sometimes we feel sad,
16:42 but we need to be happy.
16:43 Isn't that right, Doc?
16:44 You can't read that from a breadwinner.
16:47 That's true.
16:48 So, no matter how much you love your parents,
16:50 our families,
16:52 you also need to love yourself.
16:55 And if you're determined to have a good life,
16:58 you should also be determined to have a good life.
17:01 A good life for you
17:02 and for your child.
17:04 Now, when it comes to,
17:06 because you're a mother with a baby,
17:09 do you think,
17:11 will you eventually allow your child
17:14 to be a breadwinner
17:16 when you and your husband are old?
17:20 It depends on him, Ma'am.
17:21 When we're done with our obligations,
17:23 we're okay.
17:24 If he's naughty,
17:25 what do you call it?
17:26 Naughty and naughty.
17:27 What do you call it?
17:28 It's a joy, Ma'am.
17:29 Yes, as long as we're naughty to ourselves.
17:31 But if he helps us,
17:33 that's really a good thing.
17:35 We should be thankful for that.
17:37 But we won't push him.
17:38 "When you grow up,
17:39 when you graduate,
17:40 help us."
17:41 Or something like that.
17:42 That's a big no-no.
17:44 Because the child will be pressured.
17:45 He won't be happy with his life.
17:48 He'll just work because of us.
17:51 I don't want that.
17:52 So, just continue with whatever you want in life.
17:55 As long as we're here.
17:57 What advice or words of encouragement
18:00 can you give to young breadwinners?
18:03 First of all,
18:04 I salute you for your hard work.
18:09 You're very determined.
18:11 My advice to you is
18:13 to forget about yourself.
18:15 There's no problem in helping.
18:17 Just rest and get tired.
18:19 Then, go back to work.
18:20 Just enjoy your life.
18:25 If you have someone you like,
18:27 push that person.
18:29 It doesn't mean that
18:31 you have to give everything to them.
18:36 Remember,
18:37 when you grow up,
18:39 you'll have your own family.
18:41 You and your family
18:42 will have your own family.
18:47 So, you have to understand yourself.
18:50 Breadwinners are very determined.
18:53 You're the one they rely on.
18:57 You're the source of stability
18:59 in your family.
19:00 Now, make sure that
19:02 you're also a human being.
19:04 There are times when you're tired
19:07 and you need to rest.
19:08 Or you're having a hard time.
19:10 So, don't be stubborn.
19:13 Ask for help from your family.
19:16 Even if they can't give you money,
19:19 they can still give you support.
19:22 So, Teacher Dan,
19:24 my wish is that
19:26 you can ask for help
19:29 or support from your family.
19:32 Ask them to help you
19:33 when you're having a hard time.
19:35 Sometimes,
19:36 we think of breadwinners
19:37 as superheroes.
19:39 Like Super Mommy.
19:41 So, sometimes,
19:42 we need to remind them
19:43 that they're also human beings.
19:45 We have needs,
19:46 we have weaknesses,
19:47 and sometimes,
19:48 we're having a hard time.
19:50 It doesn't mean that
19:52 we're being mean to each other.
19:55 It also doesn't mean that
19:57 we're resentful
19:58 because we're happy
19:59 and we're happy to give help.
20:02 And help is help.
20:04 That's what a good family is.
20:06 A family that helps each other.
20:08 Thank you again, Teacher Dan.
20:10 Thank you so much.
20:12 I'm sure our breadwinners
