Happy Father’s Day to @markruiz, dada of the Burrito and Baby Rafa (on the way!)!!! . You are the bestest dad for all the conventional reasons but also because of the things you do and values you have that make our lives so meaningful. . You say I love you every single chance you get, every single day. You fill our lives with love that is heard and felt. . You show affection without reservations, making Miguel so secure that he is loved and encouraging him that there is profound strength in showing love and affection. . You are strong, honest, vulnerable, loyal, clingy in the best way possible, and you don’t just “help out” with Miguel, you are a co-parent through and through, with no hang ups on those toxic traditional gender roles. . If all fathers love their sons the way you do, the world will be filled with better men who are loving, compassionate, excellent, affectionate, vulnerable, and strong. Thank you for being you!:) I’ll always be here for you! Happy Father’s Day love!!!:)

done packing and excited to go home tomorrow!!!:) But before I turn in, I just want to share this sneak peek of our upcoming @rags2richesinc product that will launch this August @artefinoph :) Took it for a spin today for the Rolex Awards ceremony and I got stopped so many times by people who are so ready to buy it off my hands already! 😂 Maybe we will make this available online or even distribute it (and many more new designs we are weaving for you) through stockists from around the world after ArteFino! What do you think?

5 months pregnant and going through the week with so much good food, great friends, lots of learning, and a renewed hope for the world :) We still have a LOT of work to do to get this world to sustainability, but it is absolutely heartening to know that many brilliant minds and kind hearts are already working on the biggest problems of the world. There is just one important ingredient missing: all of us doing our parts in small or big, but consistent ways.

First full day in DC :) reconnected with friends and attended the @natgeo awards ceremony where I got to know some of the world’s best scientists and explorers who are solving the world’s most urgent problem: climate change. My hope for the world gets depleted almost every day but events like this one remind me that there are still so many people quietly but significantly working towards making this world a viable place for our future generations.

21% off for a few questions!:) In @rags2richesinc, we are always excited to learn from our advocates and create meaningful and sustainable products with you! So to celebrate our 121 years of Philippine Independence, we are taking 21% off R2R items (you know, for THAT R2R bag you have been saving up for!) for advocates who will participate in a short survey that will help give us insights to create uniquely Filipino designs! . Link in Bio:) I’m so excited to read through your answers and learn from you! And yes, it is okay to be excited for your discount too :)

Philippine Wacoal Corporation has given me the honor of being called a Woman of the World! I am so grateful, honored, and humbled. But mostly humbled. The best gift of years of hard-earned experience is the gift of recognizing that we can always do better and be better. . An excerpt from their write-up: “Reese dreams of growing Rags2Riches beyond sustainability. She wants to engage companies who want to upcycle their waste, and she wants to expand internationally. Despite seemingly daunting challenges, Reese isn’t afraid. “It’s easy to become bitter and jaded. But I emerged kinder and humbler, and that’s the route we should take, even if it’s the harder route.” . Thank you @wacoalph for spearheading this campaign to recognize women who help inspire change in our country and the world, even in our own ways. .
