The Creator Life

For the month of May, I decided to just talk to some of the people I had on the podcast before about how they’re dealing with the whole COVID-19 situation. The last time I talked to Charmaine de Leon, we were talking about her businesses. (Mainly Sugbo Mercado and Pop District Bazaar) Now, we talked about how she spends her time during the whole quarantine. We even got into how people save money o...

I was very fortunate to able to interview Anthony So, Community Manager of realme Philippines!  We talked about how he started out with realme, how the brand values its community to the point that it affected some decisions that were made. There was even some tech talk mixed in there because of our shared passion of technology. Hehe.  Hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoy making...

For the month of May, I decided to just talk to some of the people I had on the podcast before about how they’re dealing with the whole COVID-19 situation. I talk to Kristiana Rule of Thirdworldbooknerd for this episode. It was fun catching up with Tiana and talk about how she got back into reading a lot of books and do some creative writing thanks to just being at home. We also talk about what ki...

For the month of May, I decided to just talk to some of the people I had on the podcast before about how they’re dealing with the whole COVID-19 situation. In this episode, I talk to Christianne Louise Tampos and David Louise Ouano of Pleight Studio, a full-service creative digital agency. Before the quarantine happened, they had a lot of plans for 2020 as a whole. We talked about the difficulty o...

This is the last episode I recorded back in Japan. Unlike the others though, I did this recording in person! I was super excited to meet Ayano Tominaga, a tech journalist in Japan! She got into my radar thanks to Isa Rodriguez, and her expertise when it comes to selfies is a big wow to me! We talk about that, how she got into being a tech journalist, and being a fan of a beauty-focused tech compan...

It’s weird when you get to meet someone you knew from before in a different setting. The feeling is weird but it’s fun because you know it would be an interesting conversation. My guest for this episode is Donna Marie Bacalso! She mainly does “flipping”! You’re probably wondering what that means right now. It basically means that you buy a house or a property then renovating it before it can be fo...

I know this is probably one of the worst times to be talking about startups and all. Hope all of you are doing okay despite this whole situation we have right now. Nevertheless, I wanted to have Ashley Uy back on the podcast because I haven’t really covered anything startup-related lately. It got me to thinking what it would take to have a better startup ecosystem in Cebu for 2020 (and beyond). We...

It’s not everyday you get to collaborate with another podcaster. I got so excited in doing this collab since this person’s been on this very podcast before! Returning to the podcast is Issaplease! She recently got back into podcasting and I just had to take the opportunity to talk to her. Due to the whole COVID-19 situation, most of us are in our homes. Because of that, Issa and I decided to do a...

In this episode of The Creator Life, I talk to Gia Macrohon. She mainly does freelance marketing for SMEs here in Cebu! I wanted to talk to her about how she got into it and her experiences on the job. We also talk about our habits when doing online and social media work to the point that we get insomnia spells! (Not good.) Good thing we did talk about the one thing we have in common: Japan! Hope...

The things you experience early on in your life can someday help you out in the future! This is exactly my takeaway with my guest for this episode, Kathrynn Dawn Sy! She used to do blogging full-time until she took a step back and focused on her architectural design firm, Atelier de Aurora! We talk about her journey from blogging (including being part of Cebu Fashion Bloggers) to starting out with...

Hey guys. Dropping this bonus episode for you all. Since people are increasingly working from home or even forced to leave, I'm here to tackle how we can stay creative despite all the COVID-19 news out there.  Sorry if I seem like I rambled on but even getting anything out for this was quite difficult. I'm currently still in Japan and constantly worried myself, but this seemed like a good way...

I really feel grateful when I see thee impact that this very podcast has, and my guest for this episode really showed me that. I have OJ Lopez back on the podcast! This time, we talk about his experience in the CNN Philippines show The Final Pitch! The show is on its 5th season and it puts a bigger focus on real estate startups! OJ shares what the journey was like from the point he pitched to get...

Season 3 is rolling along and I’m starting the string of episodes I recorded before I came to Japan!  First up is this lovely conversation with Cleo Credo! She’s a full stack web developer and recently does web design including UI and UX stuff. Her tagline literally says “I create awesome stuff on the web”. She recently got the chance to be one of the representatives for the Facebook Develope...

WE'RE BACK for SEASON 3! My guest for the premiere episode is Joshua Vergara! You might know him for his time at Android Authority, but he’s been doing his own thing on his YouTube channel for around 2 years now. He’s also doing freelance work over at Pocketnow, most notably hosting the Pocketnow Weekly Podcast. We talk about his journey on being a solo creator so far, how hard it is to get into Y...

Hey! Jullian here! Yes, you're still in The Creator Life Podcast feed. But what on earth is this? This is one of the episodes of what ended up being an episode of an unreleased podcast called "Kape Ta Na!". I did manage to put this episode out but to a less-than-stellar affair. I figured that I could put all the episodes I recorded for that right here! I was really fortunate to have a conversation...

This is officially the SEASON 2 FINALE! (Maybe?) I talk to Iggy Go in this episode and we basically catch up on a lot of stuff! We talked about his recent win at the Globe Media Excellence Awards (GMEA) 2019! We also got to talk about more content creation stuff, even referring to his idol, Gary Vaynerchuk! Besides that, we got into a lot of random topics that I could not remember half of them! Ha...

Loving this theme I’m getting with these December episodes. They’re mostly just about topics about the life of a content creator and everything around it. This episode will surely be one for the books as Issa Perez of Issaplease and I catch up. We even talk about our feelings and love of being a content creator! It’s basically no holds barred in this episode! Everything we say here comes from a pl...

As 2019 ends, I wanted to do an episode about what we’re thankful for. Not just as creators, but as people. It’s nice to focus on the life aspect for once! One of the best conversations I had on this podcast was with Ashley Uy, so I decided to bring her back on for this one! It has been a while since we saw each other in an event, so we did a little (or a lot of) catching up! We tended to get too...

If you’ve noticed for a while, then you know I’ve been doing episodes about Postcards from Elsewhere! It’s a book written by Rachel Arandilla that talks about the stories that she gathered through her travels. My guest for this episode does all the art for Postcards From Elsewhere! Her name is Celina Paredes, and her art really shines all over the book! We talk about the art she did for the book,...

It’s not everyday that I get to speak Tagalog on the podcast, but this episode changes all of that! My guest for this episode is the one and only Tech Girl Mary Bautista! She started out on YouTube doing lifestyle videos until she got her hands on an iPhone XS Max and did an unboxing. Since then, she mostly does tech videos and now has 500K subscribers on YouTube! We talk about her journey and bas...

There aren’t a lot of new bloggers that really take the time and do the work. It’s a good thing I found one and he happens to be my guest on this episode! Marco Yambao started out on Instagram. Then he really wanted to start a blog! So he did all the work, but he also needed help. He met a lot of people along the way. His efforts paid off in the form of being a finalist of Best Cebu Blogs Awards 2...
