In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, host Rachel Ostro sits down with Alexa Tepperman and Aja Zylberberg, the creative force behind some of Creator Method’s most impactful summits and in-person experiences. As the founders of Duet Events, Alexa and Aja bring years of experience designing events that blend strategy, creativity, and human connection to build rooms that actually drive growth. Together, Rachel, Alexa, and Aja unpack why events are one of the most underrated growth tools for creators and founders today. They break down why events are often overcomplicated, what creators get wrong about scale and budget, and how starting small with intention can lead to outsized impact. The conversation examines the distinction between events that merely appear impressive and those that genuinely foster trust, community, and lasting business value. Alexa and Aja pull back the curtain on what really goes into planning high-impact experiences, from guest curation and staffing to timelines, budgets, and brand perception. They explain how events can open doors to partnerships, shift how brands view creators, and serve as powerful content engines that fuel growth long after the event ends. The episode also explores entrepreneurship, motherhood, balance, and how life experiences shape the way Alexa and Aja approach both business and creativity. If you’re a creator or founder thinking about bringing your community offline, this conversation offers a clear, strategic framework for doing it with confidence and intention.
