Driven by ambition and shaped by the realities of working abroad, John Carlo Yabut is one of the inspiring Filipinos recognized in the 100 Global Entrepreneurs: OFW Edition.
Originally an engineering graduate from the Philippines, John Carlo Yabut came to Dubai with dreams of moving to the US. When those plans did not unfold, he chose a different path, one that led him to discover his purpose in wellness and service. During the pandemic, he took a bold step and built his business from the ground up, starting with home services and growing it into a trusted therapy center with thousands of loyal clients.
Through Kabayan Natural Therapy Centre, he provides accessible, high-quality wellness services while also creating opportunities for fellow Filipinos by training and employing them. His decision to prioritize community over personal success reflects his mission to uplift others.
His journey is a powerful reminder that redirection can lead to something greater. John Carlo continues to inspire OFWs to embrace change, take risks, and build something meaningful beyond borders.
