Dylan Huey’s journey in social media began in 2016 on Musical.ly, where he quickly built a loyal following by focusing on creating a supportive community rather than chasing viral content. His dedication to authenticity and using his platform to combat bullying resonated with his audience, setting him apart from other influencers. As his reach grew, Dylan shifted from content creation to managing other creators, including prominent names like Little Huddy, helping them navigate the evolving influencer marketing landscape.

Through his experiences, Dylan noticed the rise of mid-sized influencers—those with 50,000 to 150,000 followers—who were increasingly trusted by Gen Z for their relatability and authenticity. He also saw college students emerging as powerful influencers, with unique access to campus communities and the ability to shape trends. Dylan stressed that successful brand partnerships were built on alignment with creators’ values, emphasizing the importance of genuine connections over simply leveraging big followings.

Looking ahead, Dylan believes that AI tools will continue to enhance content creation, allowing influencers to produce high-quality material more efficiently while fostering deeper engagement.

Transformation often arises from our most challenging moments, as illustrated by Paul Glover in a journey from a promising federal trial lawyer to a man confronting the consequences of his actions. Initially captivated by the thrill of courtroom victories, Paul’s ambition led him into the gray areas of the law, where he eventually faced an astonishing indictment on 33 counts of white-collar crimes. The consequences were severe: a seven-year prison sentence that shattered his once-promising career. Yet, within the confines of his incarceration, Paul began a profound journey of redemption, revealing the resilience of the human spirit and the profound shifts that can occur when one confronts their deepest flaws and seeks to rebuild their life.

Paul's time in prison became an unexpected catalyst for change. Initially filled with self-pity and revenge fantasies, he soon began to recognize the struggles of those around him, particularly the high rates of recidivism among inmates. This realization sparked a desire to foster change, leading him to teach GED classes and engage in meaningful conversations that reshaped his perspective. Through these experiences, he discovered the transformative power of empathy and education, igniting a new sense of purpose focused on helping others find hope and healing.

Now, Paul is on a mission to share his story and insights with leaders navigating their own journeys. His revolutionary coaching philosophy emphasizes accountability and the importance of legacy over mere profit.
