In the last 15 years or so, Suzi Entrata has become a second mom of sorts to all the students and early risers who watch the GMA morning show Unang Hirit. She’s kept us company while were having breakfast with her practical recipes, home tips and feature stories that inspire us.
Off-cam, she’s a devoted to TV host sports enthusiast Paolo Abrera and mom to their children. In fact, she’s known as a supermom, which a lot of women aspire to be and the “Mars” every woman would want to have as a best friend.
With three adolescent children, a couple of TV shows and hosting gigs on the side, Suzi admits balancing work and family continues to be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be a reason to neglect yourself.
“No matter how busy you are, or even if you always have lots of things to do at home, you still have to find some time for yourself. As moms its also our duty to take care of ourselves first kasi if we get sick lalo din mahihirapan ang family natin right?”
Hosting the first gathering of the Power Wives, Suzi was in her element as she gave tips and gladly assisted resource speakers Chiqui Barretto and Mica Fuentes Tuaño in their skill and personality development sessions with the wives of seafarers.
In time for the Christmas season, Chiqui Barretto of Wrap Up taught the Power Wives a thing or two about giftwrapping, as well as some tips on how to make extra money on their newly-acquired skills. Celebrity Make-Up artist Mica on the other hand taught the women how to properly do their eyebrows and gave them some practical advice on how to properly do their make-up.
The creation of the Power Wives is the continuation of GSK’s cervical cancer awareness efforts urging Filipinas to realize that they are empowered—that they can do something to prevent the disease from happening to them, so they can have the wonderful, meaningful and joyful life that they deserve.
The pharmaceutical company has selected the wives of our seafarers as the pioneering members of the Power Wives who underwent a program that includes sessions on personality development, image building, personal resilience, financial management and self-care.
