How I Create Me How I Create Me

From the island of Guam , Richard is an engineer/designer and now co-founder at Bettersum. He’s building the marketing tool Supercopy because he believes we should communicate to people in the manner they want to be communicated to.

Richard chatted with us about the mandate of creative outputs and how our quick-to-commercialize economy has perhaps skewed our engagement with the joy of learning and sharing as a community. As a serial entrepreneur, his combination of generosity and boldness have positioned him to repeatedly challenge prevailing assumptions about the bifurcation of “design” and “STEM” through building approachable tech solutions that live at the intersection of code + culture. He’s currently building an AI tool for marketing professionals called SuperCopy. Join us to hear why apprenticeships beat entry-level jobs any day and why a trip to the gym an hour before midnight was the best part of the weekend.

Hello remarkable humans! Your host, Jessica, here, to share a quick show update. How I Create Me is wrapping Season 1 with Episode 17, and we’ll be back with Season 2 on January 12, 2023. For many businesses, Q4 can be an essential time of both intensive retrospective and ambitious planning. For many creatives, the changing seasons and slate of new year holidays can be an essential time of ritualized connection with Nature, community, and self. We’ll give each other space to embrace these moments for all their value, and we’ll reconvene to celebrate more stories of divergent productivity in 2023.

In the meanwhiles, if you want to stay connected, share ideas, ask questions, or generally get amongst it, visit howicreate.me or find us on any of the socials @howicreateme.

A deep and heartfelt thank you to everyone who’s welcomed us into their headspace: it’s a sacred sphere, and we take the invitation seriously. Thank you for listening. Further gratitude to our Season 1 guests: You make me and our world better by sharing so generously of yourself. May your forward payment come back around to you more abundant than when you gave it. Special thanks to our production team at Chat with Leaders Media: Jeff Bond, Quentin Thomas, Catherine Tran, and Georgette Eva and our show sponsor, The Frame Brain. This podcast is the best part of my week.

Wishing you and yours many merry months! Cheers to 2023!

A journalist by trade, Georgette’s excitement for social media happened by chance as she discovered how it combined her love of writing, community connection, visual design, and, yes, puns. Now with 10 years of experience, she’s had the opportunity to work in a range of industries from fashion, food, to Saas startups helping brands get to the next level of content and community. Georgette shares why showing up in social spaces still matters and how the exchange of value isn’t purely fleeting and transactional.
