Bio
Kristina Corpin-Moser is the Executive Director of Filipino BC.
Cultural Background
Kristina is of FIlipino, Canadian, Austrian and Jewish descent.
Favorite Self Confidence Quote
Transitions, big or small, are rarely straightforward. They require abandoning the parts of ourselves that feel safe and familiar. It is a massive task to intentionally choose change over comfort. But it taught me to trust myself more and embrace the shifts.
Definition of Self Confidence
Self-confidence is having the knowledge or assurance of your ability mixed with humility and curiousity.
Her Life Before the Discovery of Self Confidence
Kristina mentioned that ignorance can be bliss—it’s easier to ignore being told you don’t belong when you don’t know any better or aren’t aware that you’ve been excluded from those spaces.
The “AHA” Moment
Kristina had more than one AHA moment. The first one was when she had the first Lapu Lapu festival in Vancouver and it became a success. This was proof of how capable she was in creating something and turning it into a success. The second AHA moment was when a tragedy happened during the 2nd Lapu Lapu Festival. This gave another kind of confidence and it also showed her that through her struggles from this tragic event, she was able to stumble into her strength.
Her Life After the Discovery of Self Confidence
Kristina still feels some hardships from the tragic event but she also felt the Filipino term Kapwa which means shared identity, oneness with others, and fellow humanity. She witness people taking care of each other and making sure that everyone was okay after the tragedy. Kristina is also more vulnerable and more principled as well.
The One Self Confidence Tip for the Listener
You are enough.
Borrow courage: join rooms that stretch you; mentors and peers are force multipliers.
Do one brave thing daily: a pitch, a boundary, a request. Confidence compounds.
Own your lens: your background is not a detour; it’s your differentiation.
Regulate your body: sleep, hydration, and whole foods make courage sustainable.
