Celebrating Philippine Independence Day with Silicon Valley Founders & Funders 🇵🇭

What drew me to this community was their authenticity

We didn’t introduce ourselves by pitching our latest product or talking about what round we raised

Instead, we went deeper sharing real challenges we’re facing & creating space for one another

We talked about what it feels like to sit in boardrooms where no one looks like you

About untangling imposter syndrome while navigating industries our families never had access to before

That kind of honesty is quite rare

I’m proud to exist at the intersection of Filipino x Tech - helping create opportunities, representation, and community for people who traditionally haven’t had seats at the table

Exciting to witness the growing momentum connecting Filipino founders, investors, and builders across Manila and Silicon Valley 🇵🇭

Thank you San Francisco Federal Credit Unionn for creating spaces for women to succeed in business!

"What do you do when the world tells you you're not enough?

If you're Bernadette Lagman, you step onto a TEDx stage and answer back.

Bernadette is the CEO and Founder of CareerDette and one of the most grounded, gutsy voices in Recruiting and Career Coaching today. Her TEDx talk at Seattle University, ""Perseverance: The Art of Hardship"", isn't a feel-good pep talk. It's an honest reckoning with what it actually takes to keep going when the path gets hard. She doesn't promise that life will get easier. She teaches something far more valuable: how to move through it anyway.

Her coaching philosophy is built on this same foundation, which is helping people get comfortable in uncomfortable spaces, reframe failure as fuel, and spot opportunity even when everything feels uncertain. She brings that same energy to every client she works with, drawing on her experience recruiting at companies like Indeed, Amazon, and Qualtrics to give people real, practical tools alongside the mindset to use them.

Bernadette doesn't just coach resilience. She lives it. And this Women's Empowerment Month, San Francisco Federal Credit Union is proud to celebrate her: A woman who turned hardship into her life's work, and in doing so, has helped countless others find their footing again.

As a proud member of San Francisco Federal Credit Union, Bernadette has found more than a financial institution - she's found a community that believes in building people up, not just accounts.
