In today’s unpredictable world, one certainty remains: uncertainties can strike at any moment, on any day. The key is to equip ourselves as best as possible and ensure we’re laying the groundwork for a brighter future for ourselves and our loved ones. This is precisely the approach taken by Maureen Schrijvers, a Filipino-Belgian athlete and TV personality.
At the age of 28, Maureen gifted herself the best present she could: peace of mind, through her first insurance policy with EastWest Ageas. “Insurance serves as a safety net in my life – something I never had growing up. We didn’t have the privilege of a safety net or financial security. Therefore, I always viewed insurance as either expensive or only for the affluent. To have that sense of security is an unparalleled feeling of safety,” shares Schrijvers.
As a multi-faceted individual, Maureen dedicates her time to various passions. She represents the Philippine national athletics team, clinching two bronze medals in the Southeast Asian Games of 2019 and 2021. Beyond sports, she advocates for animal welfare and serves as a GMA Sparkle artist, co-hosting the morning show Kada Umaga on NET 25.
Having peace of mind allows Maureen to remain focused on her diverse roles. With a financial advisor by her side, she navigates financial planning tailored to her current needs and future aspirations.
For those still chasing their myriad dreams, Maureen advises, “Start now. There’s no perfect time, salary amount, or moment to wait for. Beginning now, with what you already possess, is the optimal way to construct a better tomorrow. EastWest Ageas can assist you in identifying what suits your requirements, so don’t fret about not having enough to commence.”
