Y Speakers

WHO WE ARE

We are a community of Filipino motivational speakers ages 15-30, who inform, inspire, involve and empower the Filipino youth through motivational speaking. With its PAY IT FORWARD principle, its mission is to hone young people to become an inspiration to their fellow youth.

The Society of Young Filipino Speakers is founded by Pocholo “The VoiceMaster” Gonzales – veteran voice artist and radio broadcaster, internationally-awarded youth advocate, author, and a highly sought-after voice coach, motivational speaker and trainer. 

Since the age of 18, Pocholo has been speaking to young people, teaching them skills such as public speaking, communication, personal branding, and inspiring them to live a life of passion and purpose. Pocholo has travelled to more than 50 provinces all over the Philippines to speak in seminars, events, and commencement exercises. 

As the founder of Voice of the Youth Network – the largest volunteer youth media organization in the Philippines – Pocholo’s extensive experience of working with young people enabled him to understand their lifestyle, mindset and behaviors, and develop them to become agents of positive social change.
