Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. In this episode, we talk with entrepreneur and Byio co-founder C.R. Cochren, who is helping shape a groundbreaking, invite-only social platform for creators based in the Detroit area. Byio is being built to support creators—especially those facing bias—by offering a more equitable, intentional, and empowering digital space.

C.R. shares her deeply personal journey, including surviving being shot earlier in life, and how those early trials shaped her purpose, resilience, and commitment to fighting for voices that often go unheard. Her story is one of transformation, courage, and determination in an America that continues to wrestle with equality and representation.

We explore the vision behind Byio, the challenges of building a new tech platform, what creators truly need today, and how lived experience can fuel meaningful innovation. This is a powerful conversation about entrepreneurship, recovery, and building something bigger than yourself.
