“Do something today that your future self will thank you for.”
The countdown is on to ImpactHer book online book launch 12.11.26 – When inspiration leads to action
- 10 days to go!
We’re excited to introduce Dhing Frances Dato-on, one of the inspiring authors sharing her story in ImpactHer.
Frances is a two-time award-winning Filipino-New Zealand custom couture designer, transformational speaker, identity coach and author based in Auckland, New Zealand. Born in the Philippines, her journey has been shaped by resilience, responsibility and courage. After losing her father at eighteen, she became the primary breadwinner for her mother and seven younger siblings. Today, she inspires women to reconnect with their identity, recognise their worth and embrace who they truly are.
Chapter: Remember Who You Are
“Identity is not found. Identity is remembered—and remembrance is the beginning of every woman’s rise.”
For years, I was everything for everyone until I became nothing for myself. On 26 June 2022, one question shattered the silence: “Frances… do you love yourself?” My answer was immediate: “No. I hate myself.” That moment became the beginning of my awakening not because I became stronger, but because I finally became honest with myself. “Identity is not found. Identity is remembered and remembrance is the beginning of every woman's rise.”
👉 Grab ImpactHer to discover Frances’s powerful journey of rediscovering her identity, finding the courage to be honest with herself and learning that true transformation begins when we remember who we are.
