- Starting a company from scratch isn’t easy. Doing it multiple times seems downright impossible.
Eric Ryan is one of those serial entrepreneurs. Most known as the co-founder of Method soaps, he’s also the founder of Olly vitamins, Welly first aid kits, Cast jewelry, and he has more ventures planned.
I sat down with Eric to ask him about his creative process. What follows is a conversation about serial creativity and why reinvention is the key to repeating creative success.
This…is A Bit of Optimism.

I thoroughly enjoyed this insightful and encouraging conversation.
The dynamic of this conversation was so engaging and fascinating! It was so full of incredible anecdotes. One of your best yet Simon! Thank you
This convo is too casual to have such incredible anecdotes.
Massive respect to both.
Both Simon and Eric are such great speakers. Loved listening to their podcast! 👍
Love it
Gotta love “institutional blind spots”
Did Simon ever say what happened to his arm?
He fought a zombie horde of fanatical Welchian apostles.

SIMON 🤍 THANK YOU... I'M A FORMER COCAINE DEALER & WAS SERVING A 35 YEAR PRISON SENTENCE THE FIRST TIME I HEARD YOU SPEAK. YOUR MINDSET & DELIVERY MADE A PROFOUND IMPACT UPON MY VIEW OF HUMANITY, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY UNLOCKING VARIOUS PATHWAYS WITHIN MY BRAIN... I WAS RELEASED IN 2017 & CONTINUE REWATCHING CERTAIN VIDEOS
NOT YELLING 😁 I ALWAYS WRITE & TYPE IN CAPS
Ummm, IKEA came to the United States in the 1980's, not in 2000.
They invested in Elizabeth Holmes as well. See how that turned out. This feels a little like a circle jerk as well.
BRILLIANT MIND, BUT ERIC SPEAKS AS IF HE JUST INJECTED COCAINE IMMEDIATELY AFTER GUZZLING A BOTTLE OF LIQUOR. RAPID, SLURRED SPEECH, WITH HIS FIST COVERING HIS MOUTH EVERY FEW SECONDS... REWIND, SLOW THE PLAYBACK SPEED, STILL INTELLIGIBLE
MINUTE 20:17 "I DON'T START WITH IDEAS, I START WITH LOOKING FOR..."
