In this episode of One Thousand Gurus, host J.R. Yonocruz sits down with Hao Gagaring, a self-proclaimed 'memory creator' who focuses on crafting and personalizing objects. As an introverted individual who moved to the United States from the Philippines in her late teens, Hao shares her journey of adjusting to a new country, breaking through her introverted nature by working in a mobile dental company, and pursuing her entrepreneurial passions. She discusses her Labubu clothing and crafting business, which she runs with her mom, and offers insight into the challenges and rewards of starting a side business. Hao also touches on the importance of dental health, the cultural shock of moving to a new country, and how her passion for K-pop has helped her adjust to her new surroundings.

Guest bio:
Hao is a friend of J.R.’s: a coffee buddy, introvert, and crafty individual. She is a self-procalimed “simple, law-abiding citizen.” She doesn’t consider herself an influencer or content creator, but more of a memory-creator. Personalizing and customizing things are some of her favorite hobbies.
