Kakai Bautista has some words to ponder for her fellow breadwinners of the family.
In the latest episode of "Your Honor" hosted by Tuesday Vargas and Buboy Villar, the Kapuso comedienne reminded breadwinners to put themselves first.
"Lahat tayong mga breadwinner sobrang mahal natin ang pamilya natin, pero nakakalimutan talaga natin mga sarili natin. Kaya lagi ko sinasabi sa mga post ko na, 'pag bread winner ka, sarili mo muna," Kakai said.
According to her, breadwinners should take care of themselves first because being the provider for your family is hard.
"Kailangan mo intindihin ang sarili mo, kailangan pasayahin ang sarili mo. Bakit? Napakahirap maging breadwinner. Kapag hindi ka masaya, mauubos ka, bes!" she said.
Kakai said it's also OK to reward and make themselves happy from time to time.
"Kailangan may reward ka, kahit siopao lang 'yan. Kailangan mo pasayahin ang sarili mo," she said.
Kakai also looked back to her experience of being the breadwinner of her family.
"One time kasi sa buhay ko hindi na ako masaya sa pagiging breadwinner. Pagod na pagod na ako," she said.
But when gave herself a limit on what she can provide and started to buy and eat whatever she wanted, Kakai said she became happier in providing for her family.
"Mas masarap magbigay, 'pag masaya kang nagbibigay sa sarili mo lalo na ang mga breadwinner. Kaya dapat ang breadwinner talaga intindihin muna ang sarili," she said.
"Your Honor" airs every Saturday at 8:15 p.m. after "Pepito Manaloto." It is also streamed live on YouLol's YouTube page and is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcast.
