LJ Reyes starts a new vlog series titled "Wonder Stories" to help inspire her online viewers with different life stories.

"We want to empower individuals and we want to share stories that will inspire each and every one of us, myself included. We will be sharing stories about ordinary people with extraordinary stories," LJ said.

The Kapuso actress mentioned that the concept of the series stemmed from her business called Wonder Jane.

"When we relaunched Wonder Jane, I really wanted it to be a platform for something much bigger. I truly believe that there's a Wonder Jane in each of us - and we thought of featuring ordinary people with extraordinary stories through a series called #WonderStories," she related.

For its first episode, LJ interviewed Farah Christie, a single mom who shared a beautiful and inspiring story.

LJ futher described her guest, "A devoted single mom of two who has lived a life full of highs and lows. Her strength and resilience reminded me of my own mom - and it's an honor to be able to share her story with all of you!"

According to LJ, Farah messaged her on Instagram requesting a video greeting for her daughter, who is a huge fan of the actress.

In their conversation, LJ found out that one of her daughters, Ricci, is differently-abled. Farah said that her daughter has difficulty remembering things or details in her everyday life.

Farah also related her life as a single mom for 16 years and how she continues to work hard for her two kids.

LJ couldn't help but admire Farah after hearing the story of her love and commitment to give the best for her kids.

"You're a great mother Farah. I feel your love for your kids and I can relate," the actress said.

LJ also agrees to Farah about the struggles of a single mom, "It's not easy, I've been a single mom myself for quite some time."

LJ added that any child would feel lucky to have Farah as a mom, "Ang sarap mo siguro maging nanay. 'Yun lang masasabi ko. I just really admire you for that."
