Lexy Panterra has spent years building a following as a singer, dancer, and content creator, and then watched hackers erase almost all of it overnight. She joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to talk about what happened when her million-view YouTube channel was wiped out, and what she has done since.
The conversation moves from the shock of that loss into a broader look at what it actually takes to stay a working creator today, from platform restrictions to staying authentic in an increasingly corporate industry.
