Finding something relatable from the characters they portray is nothing new for award-winning actresses Iza Calzado and Shamaine Buencamino. But their upcoming episode for long-running drama anthology "MMK" hits even closer to home what with an advocacy they both hold dear - mental health awareness.

On July 24, the audience will meet Julie (Heaven Peralejo) who sees her mother, Caridad (Calzado), as her protector from her abusive father. But her life gets upturned when her mother develops Schizophrenia. Because of the responsibilities suddenly left to her, Julie begins to resent Caridad. As Esther (Buencamino) enters Julie's life, she finds the love she has for her biological mother.
