 Welcome to TFAW Letters, the holiday edition, from The Filipino American Woman Project. I’m your host, Jen Amos. Each episode, I will read a fictionalized letter—my creative interpretation of real conversations with you! These letters have been woven with heart, reflection, and truth—to honor your stories while protecting your privacy. It all begins with one line: “If I could say one thing…” Because sometimes, one thing is all we need to take up a little more space.

    183: "Being bullied sucked." — A Filipina Who Just Wanted to Survive Her Childhood
    2025/12/19

    If you could reflect on one thing, it’s this:

    Which memories define you, or don’t define you anymore?

    This letter is for anyone who simply wants to feel safe, secure, and stable in her friendships.

    Through a flashback sparked by a new friend around a bonfire, the writer recalls a time when she was bullied, labeled “lesser than,” and ambushed by a group of girls who she thought were her people.

    If you ever struggled to defend yourself for something you didn’t do, this one’s for you.

    Join us for our FINAL Family Potluck: Vision Board Workshop this Monday, December 22nd!

    182: "There's a time and place for gossip." — A Filipina Learning to Communicate Differently at Work
    2025/12/08

    If you could reflect on one thing, it’s this:

    How do you communicate with your family versus in the workplace?

    This letter is for anyone who grew up in a home where tsismis (a.k.a. gossip) was connection, love, and entertainment, only to discover how it lands differently in the workplace.

    The writer examines the differences between indirect communication at home and direct communication at work, and how a well-meaning effort to bond with colleagues nearly cost her her job.

    If you ever felt torn between how you communicate at home versus at work, this one’s for you.

  • 181: "Are you going home for the holidays?" — A Filipina Redefining Family

    181: "Are you going home for the holidays?" — A Filipina Redefining Family
    2025/11/24

    If you could reflect on one thing, it’s this:

    Are you going home for the holidays—or are you already home?

    This letter is for anyone tired of being asked if they’re going home to their blood family and relatives for the holidays.

    Through faith, conviction, and clarity, the writer shares why she’s choosing not to return to her family this year. She reflects on how familial and cultural expectations justified years of abuse, how she made an idol out of family, and what ‘going home’ means to her today.

    If you’ve ever said, “But they’re family…” just to survive the holidays—this letter is for you.
