Harry Paul Davies was still in his early twenties when he built a full-fledged talent management agency inside the fast-growing creator economy. He joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to talk about what it actually takes to run that kind of business day to day, and what it cost him personally to get there.
The conversation touches on family reaction to his career choice, the discipline required to manage a professional agency, and his broader thoughts on how social media image-building can end up working against a business rather than for it.
