All dads are not the same. Some lead with quiet strength, others with humor and warmth. Some step into the role by blood, others by bond, circumstance, or choice. But no matter the path, one thing remains constant: they show up. And showing up isn’t just about being physically present—it’s about being there in the ways that matter most: offering support, guidance, provision, and encouragement.
This Father’s Day, LAC Philippines honors the everyday resilience, presence, and heart of Filipino fathers. Behind every quiet ride home, “hold the flashlight” moment, and silent passing of the remote on movie nights is a story of a man choosing to be there. Fatherhood is not a one-size-fits-all journey; it’s a lifelong promise shaped by love, grounded in purpose. LAC Philippines believes that every father’s journey deserves to be seen, supported, and celebrated.
Ryan Araña, a former PBA athlete with his wife and children
For Ryan Araña, fatherhood is the most fulfilling role he’s embraced, far greater than any championship or title from his years on the court. A former pro basketball player, Ryan now pours his energy into the everyday wins of family life with his wife, son, and daughter. Off the court, he stays active and involved, showing up not just as a provider but as a present and intentional dad, especially in the small, meaningful moments like family trips. “I want to age with my kids, not behind them,” Ryan shares. “That’s why I train for the future that I want to live with them,” a future powered by routine, rest, and the right wellness support.
For Sphenzer Haskins, ”fatherhood” came through love and necessity. After college, he naturally stepped into the role of a guiding presence for his siblings, supporting his single mom while building his career as a financial advisor and content creator. Embracing life’s responsibilities with quiet strength and optimism, he leads with purpose and balance—whether offering advice or making memories on trips with them. “It’s always better to enjoy your blessings with your family,” he reflects. “But you have to make sure you’re saving a little care for yourself, too.” Through it all, he stays grounded by self-care, knowing that nurturing others begins with nurturing oneself.
DJ Perez with Boochie and Dior
Then there’s DJ Perez, whose story shows that fatherhood isn’t defined by who you raise, but how you love. As a Sales Director, DJ balances a dynamic career with life shared with his partner, Wisely, and their two dogs—Boochie the French Bulldog and Dior the Pomeranian. From global travels to late-night festivals, DJ’s lifestyle is fast and full of movement. “Staying healthy isn’t just a goal for me, it’s how I show up for the ones I love,” he shares. As a fur dad, DJ lives out fatherhood through everyday presence—daily walks, shared adventures, and quiet companionship. For him, showing up is love in motion.
Fueling the Strength Behind Every Role
Because fatherhood requires strength in every form, LAC Philippines supports men with science-backed wellness tools that meet them where they are—on the court, in the office, at home, or on the trail.
LAC Wild O Maca is a vegetarian supplement formulated to support stamina, energy, and male vitality. Powered by Maca, Green Oats, and Sea Buckthorn, it helps dads stay physically sharp and emotionally steady. Taken once or twice a day, it supports endurance, mental focus, and stress resilience, so they can lead with strength and stay present for the ones they love.
LAC Activated Zhi® Energy, on the other hand, is a caffeine-free, on-the-go energy shot powered by Cordyceps, Lingzhi, and a vitamin-rich blend. Designed to fuel focus and endurance without the crash, it helps dads recharge for their work deadlines, gym sessions, errands, or playtime.
This Father’s Day, let’s celebrate not just what dads do, but who they are, and who they’re becoming. Whether they’re raising kids, mentoring siblings, or caring for pets like family, their presence makes a difference. And their health is worth supporting for all the days they continue to show up.
