Introducing: IC Awards

The IC Awards honor influencers who use their platforms responsibly to make a positive impact. The Lifestyle Inspiration of the Year award recognizes creators who promote positive lifestyle choices and inspire their audiences. The selection process includes nominations, shortlisting, audience voting, and expert judging. Nominees are evaluated on authenticity, social impact, and their ability to spark meaningful conversations.

To earn the Lifestyle Inspiration of the Year title, influencers must demonstrate:

• A commitment to promoting positive lifestyle values.
• An ability to inspire audiences towards sustainable living and self-improvement.
• Effective use of their platform to encourage community engagement and meaningful dialogue.

The judges assess nominees on these criteria, ensuring that the award goes to someone who not only entertains but also educates and inspires.

Ka Mangyan: A Journey of Authenticity and Impact

Mercedes Lasac's rise as a celebrated influencer highlights her passion and resilience. Her vlogs, known as Probinsya Life, offer a genuine look into the vibrant yet simple life of the Mangyan people in Mindoro.

Her viral Sugpo Catch and Cook vlog, with 1.8 million views, and collaboration with Ivana Alawi solidified her status as a leading content creator. Ka Mangyan has built a loyal following and established a deep connection with her audience by creating engaging and relatable content.
