Almost Honest targets Filipinas aged 18–30 who are facing cultural templates, career uncertainty in an artificial intelligence-driven world, and identity struggles amid overstimulation and family obligations. The podcast delivers candid discussions with Kylie and her guests, who share raw stories about success, failure, relationships, and mental health—urging listeners to embrace imperfection and boldly chase their dreams.
Kylie reflects, “My career did not follow the traditional route. From my Baguio roots as a preschool teacher to becoming a beauty queen, actress, and businesswoman, I walked the road less traveled, pursuing what I truly wanted despite the noise. At the end of the day, all I wanted was to be honest with myself.”
Each 60–90 minute episode features deep interviews, rapid-fire segments, dilemma debates, and real-life lessons with guests such as entrepreneurs, therapists, and creatives, offering Filipino-rooted insights on cultural truths, ambition, love, and self-discovery.
Almost Honest aims to become a cultural touchstone for Filipinas seeking connection and courage. For more information, interviews, or to listen, visit www.almosthonest.ph.
