Apologies 😅 #TVPatrol,&quot; Karen posted on social media platform X, reacting to it. Karen is one of the anchors of TV Patrol. She is also /part of Headstart, the morning news program of ANC. She has been working on television for three decades now. Last year, Karen spoke to Karmina Constantino on the KC After Hours podcast on how her parents were instrumental in shaping her work ethic and mindset.&quot;My dad told me noon nung papunta na ako ng college, &#x27;Alam mo Karen, the only barrier to you and success is you. You cannot blame anybody. Kapag ikaw if you fail, you can&#x27;t look at other things, you just have to look at what your role is in that,&#x27;&quot; she recounted.She added: &quot;Number 2, my mother told me: &#x27;Karen wala akong mapapamana sa &#x27;yong alahas, pera, lupa, pero if you finish your schooling, you can be anything you want to be but nothing will be served to you on a silver platter. So parang I knew I wasn&#x27;t entitled to anything. I think that was the mental resilience that I had when I started my career which was in GMA 7 by the way, then eventually I moved to [ABS-CBN].&quot;<div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/2024/9/3/karen-davila-reflects-on-her-youtube-journey-for-the-past-three-years-1239" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">READ: Karen Davila reflects on her YouTube journey for the past three years</a></div>Karen is also a YouTuber with 2.63 million subscribers to date. She launched her YouTube channel in 2021.In a past interview with Bianca Gonzalez for TFC&#x27;s BRGY, she reflected on why she thinks she gained massive following on YouTube.&quot;The reason it works is because it&#x27;s not about me. My YouTube is an inspirational channel and gives you a glimpse in the lives of other people, mostly celebrities, but it&#x27;s also about other things in their lives,&quot; Karen highlighted.She went on: &quot;In the end, I always believe that there is a co-relation in the bible. The bible gives us so many promises and I always want to be able to connect it that when you have faith, you will overcome whatever hardship you will experience.&quot;
