https://t.me/+UCG_HohWDGj15hLs Here's the second part of this episode with Joe Bonifacio!

TELEGRAM GROUP: https://t.me/joinchat/HcnWXVAhvx7UgidQ9eYS7A Welcome to the first episode of Impostors!

Hey! I’m Nate Punzalan, I love coffee, film photography, indie music, and my wife Pauline. 🤍 On this YouTube channel, I aim to make inspirational and faith-based content about marriage, career, adulting, love, and life. My goal is for every video I post to add real value to your life, whether you’re a student or a young professional. Subscribe for …

Instagram has a new feature where you can turn off your like counts, both on your feed and on your posts as a creator. Pauline and i talk about our thoughts on the possible implications of this feature, and evolve the conversation toward the topic of online validation.

I got an email about how the development of the vaccine had something to do with aborted fetuses. In this episode, i respond and share my thoughts on the ethics and morality of this new finding, from a Christian perspective.

In this episode of #CoffeeConversations, Pauline and I talk about a question that’s being asked around some Christian communities. Should a Christian take the COVID-19 vaccine? This discussion is full of our opinions, so I’m just throwing out a disclaimer that (1) our opinions are subject to change based on the information we receive, and that (2) …

If you’re constantly telling yourself, “I’m tired of being tired,” and experience things like unwillingness to get out of bed, lack of motivation to do simple tasks, regretful or sorrowful comparison to others living “better” lives, pining for how it used to be, panicking because of all the uncertainty, or unjustly channeling your anger onto others…

If you’ve been a subscriber for a long time, you’ll know that in 2019, I lost my drive to create content. I wasn’t so proud of the content I was creating, and in some ways felt like a slave to my subscribers, because I felt like I only got views and likes when the video was about certain mainstream topics, even though I wasn’t in the mood to make c…

We're back from the States, after a 5-month trip. Pauline and I talk about regrets, "sayang", and seizing every moment.

In our trip to Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur here in California, Pauline and I decide to stop by the beach and talk a bit about what it's like to have a romantic relationship lose its "spark". What do you do when things start to feel "normal"?

Pauline and I talk about our life here in the USA after temporarily moving to California last October. If all goes well, we'll be back in Manila by March! But for now, here are a few learnings and stories of our experiences and travels here. :)

Adulting is hard. In my experience, the transition to twenty-something years old has a lot to do with developing independence. And while independence is mostly a good thing, there are two traps that can eventually lead to burnout: 1. Self-sufficiency: Convincing yourself that you have all the strength and ability within you to make it on your own 2…

For over a decade now, I've been starting the year with a 5-day fast alongside the rest of my church community. Here are 5 reasons why fasting is such a great spiritual discipline: 1. Jesus fasted. Before he started his formal ministry, he fasted because he knew fasting gives spiritual strength and prepares one for God's work. 2. Fasting makes us m…

How to Start the Year Right https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RimsBFZ96Us I'm not a guru, but I've been doing this for over 10 years now and it's been great for my mental health, emotional health, spiritual health, and sometimes even my physical health! (Hopefully this year I can shed the weight I gained here in the States 🥲) 1. Gratitude I like to p…

This is a student interview conducted by three Grade 12 students from Philippine Science High School. I answer their questions about being a content creator, and what it's like in the industry.

Three applicable and serious tips if you're looking to start a YouTube channel, an Instagram account, a TikTok, whatever

No outline, no notes, just me talking for 24 minutes straight. Kudos to you if you make it all the way through. No worries if you don't.

We touch on journaling, having the right friends and perspective on other people, and processing emotions.…

Interview with Janina Vela on the Philippine political situation regarding the Anti-Terrorism Bill. Be sure to do your own research too :)

I talk about ELEMENTAL RANKINGS that help you determine how good you are at work. No matter your field, no matter your position, rating yourself according to this system should help you get a comprehensive understanding of the quality of work you can bring to the table. The most important part is realizing that you're good, but not that good. We al…

We talk a lot about what it is to be creative, what helps nurture your creativity, and how to foster a creative mindset, especially as a Christian.

A refreshing conversation with model and online creator LA Aguinaldo on finding your north. We also talk about his fashion line, All Day Industries.

Wosh and I talk about what it means to speak out on social media and be critical of the government, especially as Christians. Are we supposed to call out incompetence and corruption, or stay silent and just pray?

In this one I talk about adulting from a faith perspective. Thanks to CCD St. Scholastica's College for having me!

Students like to email me interview questions for their projects. I usually answer in voicenotes since it's easier for me, so I thought why not share with you guys. Love you all.

I'm back! Here's the inspirational talk I usually give at schools. I'm about to change it come 2020, so I figured I'd show you guys the 2019 one. Love you all.
