How Elena Lapid got her groove back

By
OPRAH MOMENT. Elena Lapid Salonga, proudly holding up her “Entreprenuer of the Year” award given to her by the Filipino-American Chamber of Commerce of Orange County, California, last October 2012.

Elena Lapid Salonga remembers the day she was on the phone with her husband, Jun. She wanted to go home, she begged him, forgetting she was home… in a beautiful house that they had bought in the sunny community of Chino Hills, a suburb in Los Angeles, California. Her three children were enrolled in good schools—the eldest and middle child are in high school, and the youngest in elementary. Chino Hills is a good place to raise children. It is recognized as one of America’s 100 Best Communities for Young People. On Saturdays, Elena goes shopping; she has money for that and for household expenses.
