“Late Night Thoughts: Adulting Problems, Self-Motivation”
Late at night, when everything is quiet, that’s when the loudest thoughts come in. 🌙 In this episode of Mic on the Go, I share my unfiltered reflections — from feeling unproductive, to the struggles of life in Dubai, my battles with health and motivation, and even my insecurities about not being fluent in Arabic. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s me — figuring out life one late night thought at a time.
“Balikbayan Diaries: Food, Faces, Places”
This episode is all about my stay in the Philippines—catching up with family, eating all the food I missed, and visiting the places that feel like home. From street food cravings to the joy of being surrounded by people I grew up with, this is a slice of balikbayan life: simple, heartwarming, and unforgettable.
“Singapore & Malaysia: Family Adventure”
Our first-ever family trip abroad — and we went big with Singapore and Malaysia! In this episode, I share what it’s like traveling in a group for the first time, from the laughter and shared adventures to the little challenges (hello, airport hassles 🙋‍♀️). Join me as we explore stunning sights, taste amazing food, and navigate the chaos of moving as one big happy crew. It’s a mix of travel fun, family bonding, and lessons we’ll never forget.
“Balik Bisdak: Nakauli na Gyud Ta!”
After years of working abroad, we’re finally back in the Philippines — sa atong yutang natawhan. In this special episode, I sit down with my cousin Kate (fresh from Germany) as we soak in the feeling of being home again. We talk about the OFW life, the struggles and longings we’ve carried, and the warmth of reconnecting with our Aaila — our family. No script, just real talk. Bisdak style.
“Padulong na ko!” - The Journey Home
“Padulong Na Ko, Bai!” “I’m on my way, friend!” — a Bisaya twist with excitement After years of working abroad, I’m finally heading back home to the Philippines—and this episode captures every bit of that emotional journey. From airport jitters to suitcase overload, immigration anxiety to that deep longing for home-cooked food, samahan niyo ako as I recount the byahe pabalik sa pinangga kong yuta. But wait… may surprise ako! Hindi lang ako ang uuwi—kasama ko ang pinsan kong si Kate from Germany, and we planned a heartwarming family surprise na siguradong core memory unlocked! We’ll talk about OFW life, faith transitions, kinilaw cravings, and the bittersweet beauty of returning home with a new version of yourself.
“Layered: Between Who I Was and Who I’ve Become”
In this episode of Mic on the Go, I reflect on the feeling of missing home — but also realizing that home has changed… or maybe, I’ve changed. I grew up in the Philippines, but now I’m here in the UAE. I still speak Bisaya, I still crave the food, I still remember the streets — but when I go back, something feels different. Maybe it’s me. Because I’m not just that girl from before… I’m layered now. I carry different languages, different beliefs, different dreams. I am Bisaya, but also Emirati. I was Christian, now I’m Muslim. I’m here, but also still there — in memory. This episode is for anyone who ever felt caught between homes, between versions of themselves, between past and present. Let’s talk about what it means to miss a place that no longer fits you the same way.
“Mic On, World Off: My Journey Begins”
Welcome to the very first episode of Mic on the Go with Emirati Bisdak! 🎙️ This podcast isn’t recorded in a studio — it’s raw, spontaneous, and recorded while I’m literally on the go. Whether I’m in the car, walking through an airport, or sitting quietly in a moment of reflection, I’m here to share stories — mine and others — that speak about identity, belonging, and everything in between. In this pilot episode, I talk about why I started this podcast, what “Emirati Bisdak” means, and how growing up in the Philippines while being Emirati shaped how I see the world. This is more than just talking — this is me unplugging from the world, turning on the mic, and letting things flow. Expect real talk, a mix of English, Bisaya, Tagalog, maybe some Arabic — and a whole lot of heart. Let’s begin.
