Multi-talented performer Sarah Geronimo is inspiring fans in a new way: through her personal financial journey. Beyond expanding her portfolio with insurance and investment products, she’s dabbling in various businesses, including a production house and music label, integrating her creative background with entrepreneurial pursuits.
“I’ve always known how important it is to be financially secure. But when I was younger, I thought saving was the only way to achieve this,” Sarah shares. “It was much later when I realized that I shouldn’t put all my eggs in one basket.”
This misconception is common among Filipinos. Fortunately, with technology making information more accessible, there’s growing awareness about financial tools beyond traditional bank accounts.
Sarah’s financial journey, like her rise to stardom, began with small, consistent steps. “I was eager to learn and thankfully, I was surrounded by people who could guide me, like my husband. Now, I understand that I have to go beyond saving; I also need financial protection,” she says.
Opening up about her financial journey, Sarah hopes to encourage more Filipinos to widen their horizons. “I want to encourage everyone, especially young professionals, to start their financial journey early,” she says. “Don’t be afraid to ask experts. Learn the basics of insurance and investment so you know how it can help you. And most of all, remember that it’s okay to start small.”
Sarah’s evolution from pop sensation to businesswoman aligns perfectly with her role as Sun Life Philippines brand ambassador. For those inspired by Sarah’s story, Sun Life offers solutions like Sun Life Save & Protect.

“It’s a different kind of fulfillment when you know you’re taking a step towards financial security, no matter how small that step may seem,” Sarah says. “Just focus on your goals and be consistent in your financial journey. Soon enough, you will get there!”
