The popular quote rings true for moms, even when they don’t see it themselves. A mom might be swimming through a perpetually hectic work schedule or overwhelming uncertainties. But more often than not, what her family sees is a strong, beautiful woman who sets her personal challenges aside to put them first, being a loving wife and an inspiring role model to her children.
Two moms who surely embody this definition of motherhood are mother-daughter tandem Josephine Gotianun-Yap, who is at the helm of the Filinvest conglomerate, and Isabelle Gotianun Yap, who is part of the leadership team of universal bank EastWest. Josephine and Issa are hardworking moms whose naturally maternal qualities have enriched their own families as well as their relationship with each other.
