Three years later, she released her third album Time for Letting Go under a new recording company Polyeast Records. With this album, Karylle's gifts as a distinctive powerhouse vocalist is showcased in the single, "I'll Never get Over You Getting Over Me". It is a collection of songs that give the definition of moving on and at the same time divides grief in five different stages.

2001- 2004

After releasing her first album, she became a host and performer in GMA-7's now defunct SOP. She ventured into TV acting and soon starred in television series. Karylle's first acting stint was in GMA 7's primetime television drama Twin Hearts as Iris. Her character would appear only for a week but then the production asked her to come back on the show to play another character Jade who looks exactly like Iris due to the chemistry that they have seen between Dingdong Dantes and Karylle. It was followed by Love to Love Season 4 where she played the role of an Ilonga from Guimaras thus requiring her to speak with an Ilongo accent earning her a best actress nomination from Enpress.

2005-2007

Her big break in her acting career came when she did the role of Sang'gre Alena, the keeper of the water gem in the hit fantasy series Encantadia. Due to its success it was followed by a second season which was entitled Etheria and the last season Encantadia: Pag-ibig Hanggang Wakas.

2008-2009

She was one of the hosts, with Raymond Gutierrez and Rhian Ramos, of Pinoy Idol'. But during the last quarter of 2008, she made the biggest changes regarding her career. She changed her management from Genesis to STAGES, her recording company from Universal Records to Polyeast EMI, from her home grown station, GMA to its rival station ABS-CBN and it came as a surprise to everyone when she became an endorser for Bench Body, with her billboards seen all over the metro for the ad "Single is Sexy!" indicating that she is also changing her image. Controversies that had spark over her break-up with former co-star and boyfriend Dingdong Dantes are speculated to what had driven her to make the move. Her last stint in GMA is her appearance in the Manny Pacquiao-Oscar de la Hoya boxing match in Las Vegas, Nevada, singing the Philippine national anthem, held last December 6, 2008. After the event, she signed a contract with ABS-CBN and became an official Kapamilya, with ASAP'08 giving her a grand welcome on December 14, 2008. After joining the ABS-CBN family her star is shining even more brighter and in Tim Yap's column in Philippine Star she was included in one of the 29 people to watch out for in 2009. She eventually guested in the Season 2 of top rating show Betty La Fea as Olivia. ABS-CBN has given her a show Nasaan ka Maruja? After her successful stint in the Saturday series, Karylle took on a challenging role as Denise Alferos in the 2010 International Emmy nominee for Telenovela category, Dahil May Isang Ikaw.

2010-2011

After being busy in the concert scene for a while, she returned on the small screen as she was introduced as the new character in the daily afternoon drama Magkano Ang Iyong Dangal?.
