That Sounds Holy!: Recent Episodes
The Abundance Network
We are a bunch of friends trying to navigate through the different seasons in our lives, as we try to merge all the spaces we move around in: faith, ministry, career, relationships, and everyday life.
No, we’re not here because we’re holy; but we’re trying to be, and we’d love for you to journey with us and join our awkward and random conversations every Tuesday! Now that sounds holy. 😉
What does it look like when we really embrace the gifts that God has given to us? It can sometimes be so scary because we don’t know what it’ll look like or if we’ll like it at all. But, in this conversation, we discover how this journey to embracing what God has given us is so full of many good things, the biggest good of them all being finding traces of God every step of the way.

**SORRY FOR BEING MIA! We had technical (and scheduling) difficulties.
In this episode, we talk about our ~insecurities~, our triggers, and how we deal with them. This was quite a difficult thing to talk about, cause it felt like we had to be so so so vulnerable and admit these things that we normally keep to ourselves. But it was also very freeing because we realized that we’re not alone in this and that God still very much delights in what we give and who we are.
It seems like everyone has been feeling the ‘sad’ lately because everything that could happen seems to be happening all at the same time and, honestly, it all just seems too much. So we thought we’d do a vulnerable conversation and really dig out something we can hold on to for now. We hope you get something from this too.Follow us:

Here’s part 2 of our conversation with Sam and Mira Pangkey of LOJ Indonesia where we talk about what it’s like to be Catholics in their country and how different (or similar!) our cultures are. This was such an interesting conversation and a very timely reminder for us that we are so privileged that we have access to this very beautiful Catholic faith! Now… how do we live that out?

We did a bit of girl talk with our friends from Light of Jesus Family Indonesia, Sam Pangkey and Mira Pangkey! They got to attend the Feast Conference so we ended up sharing our own experiences and takeaways from the conference. And wow it was just beautiful.
Watch out for part 2!
Fresh from singing at the Feast of the Nazarene when we recorded this, we found it just right to talk about how in awe we were about how the whole experience was, reflections and bloopers included. Haha!Follow us on our socials:

It’s 2024! Eyyy! We’re so glad to finally be back! 2023 was a blur (unlike last January that felt longer than the whole of 2023). This episode, we kinda summed up our 2023, sharing some highlights and reflections para may pa-life update din kami sa inyo haha! Also since it’s the start of a new year, we shared about what we’re looking forward to the most; and one thing we look forward to is uploading more episodes faithfully! Soooo G! let’s journey again together this 2024. Eyyy!

For this episode, we had the chance to chat with The Catholic Comedian and Social Media Missionary, Mr. Romar Chuca. We know him mostly for his content on TikTok (and he is quite literally one of the wittiest people we’ve met!), but it’s so interesting to know his story and how much he loves our Catholic faith. Listen to this episode (and try not to laugh). 😂

Feast Worship Night 2023 is just around the corner! And because of that, we’ve got our friends, Kuya Mike Viñas, Kim Paguio, and Hannah Dela Rosa of Feast Worship to share with us a sneak peak of what’s to come this coming Worship Night. Plus we got to hear some stories from our friends that are related to this Saturday’s theme… Believe Again.See you at the Worship Night! Wooo!
We love using this podcast as an excuse to make new friends with people who inspire us with what they do! Haha! So we’ve invited Meg Ramoso from Allora Manila to talk about her simple yet radical business mission.
At a time where it seems to make more sense to cling to a sense of stability through our careers in order to safeguard our resources for the future, we talk about how making crazy God-led decisions can be the best thing for provision and purpose to overflow.

We’re glad to have our dear friend, coffee connoisseur, and resident bible scholar, Bene back again on our show. For this episode we talked about how it seems so easy to get lost in the crowd in today’s society. BUT... there’s always a way to navigate through it. You are loved, seen, and heard by just being YOU.
Our favorite / most kaladkarin guest is back! We loved listening to the stories Father Albert had for us from his pilgrimage to the Holy Land. We dream of taking you guys there someday, but for now, we invite you to enter this adventure through Father’s stories. 🗺️

Haranas? Friendster testimonials? NGL messages? What does love look like for you? How do you show your love to others? In this third part of our 5-episode series on LOVE, we discuss how love that is given comes in many forms, shapes, and sizes, alongside the many causes and effects that receiving those kinds of love may possibly bring (a.k.a. LOVEuage Barriers)
Aio is back! And we're back in Booya Bagels for this episode because we had to let him try it out. 😅 We're on the second part of our 5-episode series on LOVE and for this episode, we jump off of an excerpt from the book: "You're Not Enough, And That's Okay" by Allie Beth Stuckley. We talk about the importance of giving AND receiving love, and of course, the model of perfect love.
We’re talking about self love to kick off this 5-part series on love! We’ve also invited Teppy, a very special friend of ours, to join this conversation on creating, nurturing, and holding a safe space for ourselves where our own hearts can be free to bloom and grow.Join us, Donuts! 🍩
In our first episode of 2023, we talk about our words of the year and we /attempt/ to figure out what they mean. SPOILER ALERT: we didn’t really come up with a conclusion. But we do know that this is just the first of many revelations and surprises that God has in store for us and we are sooo excited (and scared, and nervous, and anxious, but mostly excited)!
Let us know what you got and how you feel about it!

During the height of the pandemic, it was an understood thing when plans from work and personal life got canceled at the last minute. It became more acceptable to “flake”. Now that things are starting to go back to normal though, it’s still an obvious struggle for us to show up and really commit to the plans we’ve made with friends, family, work and ministry.
What can we do about this? In the big picture, does commitment really still matter? We talk about that in this episode!

The humdrum of everyday life and tasks can easily overwhelm and dull the gift that’s actually in front of us. In this episode, we talk about welcoming events in our life that refresh how we see things we’ve gotten so used to.

Is it possible to have the best of both worlds in ministry and in our careers outside of church? Or does one always have to be at the expense of the other?

Our last episode with Ben (for now)!! This long conversation closed pretty nicely. Whether you have a full blown plan on going after your dreams and are having a hard time making it happen, or if you’re parking it for now because of the circumstances, we want you to know that we see you.
You are not in this alone so we hope these VERY candid and obviously sabaw conversations help in making you feel that.

This episode doubles as a popcorn ASMR. But aside from that, we
spend some time talking about how we discovered our gifts or how people around us have helped in speaking life over us and these gifts. While we are somehow making use of these talents now, we still struggle and continue to learn to embrace them everyday.
P.S. We have nothing against people who love crocheting.
You guys are the coolest, really.

Bene wanted to be a cowboy. Aio wanted to be a basketball player. We wanted to be different things when we were much younger. With strong influences from family and expectations from people surrounding us, how do we get to be our own person?

“But we can’t love him (God) with our whole hearts when our hearts are asleep. To love Jesus means to risk coming awake, to risk wanting and desiring.” Stasi Eldredge
Is there any way that we could miss the dreams that have been planted in our hearts? In our determination to go after what we desire, do we end up limiting ourselves? These are some of the questions we ended up answering with Fr. Albert Garong! We bounce off from an excerpt that we read in the book “Becoming Myself”, and talk about the desires, the doubts and detours that come with dreams and plans. We really enjoyed this one, really.

This is ½ of the recordings in Baguio that we really enjoyed doing! For this one, we’re answering the questions that were sent by one of our donuts about the songwriting process. More than where we are now in our songwriting journeys though, what we found really nice was the fact that we were able to look back at our humble, playful and innocent songwriting beginnings.
Some very fascinating connections were made… so yeah, join us here by the morning campfire! HAHA

A bit late to the party but for this episode, we (ehem Issa) passionately talk about cancel culture and the pride culture that has grown so much in our world today. Thanks to the Kuya Donut who suggested these topics! And since there are a lot of things we still don’t know about the topics we talked about, we would appreciate hearing your take on them too. We’ll be waiting for those DMs! ;)

Welcome to our post-elections kamustahan! No matter what color you have decided to support, it’s been clear that no one’s excluded from the strong emotions that were felt along with the counting of the partial unofficial votes. So how do we go about this? Where do we start? These are the things we talk a bit about in this episode.

For our 20th episode, we’re talking about a topic that was suggested by one of the Donuts! It’s such a vast topic but we did our best to answer it the best we could. If you’re the type to welcome just about anybody into your life, or if you’re one to put them on mental shelves with labels, categories and all - we realize that there’s really no one hard rule to this.

Eitherway, we’re just happy to find our steps directed by God in obvious, sneaky ways.

“I remember looking at everybody and just God speaking to my heart, saying: “this is my gift to you, I’m giving you front row seats to see what you are made for - you are made to worship.”
A lot of us automatically think of white fluffy clouds, angels in pure white robes, and trumpets blowing when we think of holiness. But what does it really mean to be holy? And how can we live that out in our careers, relationships, or anywhere else outside the Church? Join us in this laughter-filled conversation as we talk about our journey towards holiness (and all the struggles that come with it).

“It’s a struggle for some who want to have a relationship with God, but they feel or they think that they have to be a certain person, or they have to reach a level of maturity to get into that; not knowing that you can just be who you are and have a relationship with God.” - Aio Barcelona
Hello, nice to meet you! For this episode we share with you a little bit about our friendship dynamic, how we met and why we have come together to do this podcast. If it were up to us, we would not have planned our friendship to grow in this way, but we’re definitely grateful for this gift and this is something we hope to share with you as we go along.

We are a bunch of friends trying to navigate through the different seasons in our lives, as we try to merge all the spaces we move around in-- faith, ministry, career, relationships, and everyday life.
No, we’re not here because we’re holy; but we’re trying to be, and we’d love for you to journey with us and join our awkward and random conversations every Tuesday! Now that sounds holy.
