Description

JT Barnett is the founder and CEO of Creator X, the content agency helping brands think like creators and act like media companies.

JT’s path is anything but traditional. He started out as a professional hockey player, then pivoted into content, building viral platforms like Honey House and helping breakout brands like Poppi win on social by going all in on community and authenticity.

In this episode, JT shares why most brands fail at content, how to actually build emotional connection at scale, and why the future of marketing will be led by creators who deeply understand their audience. He also opens up about quitting hockey with zero dollars, building from scratch, and the exact playbook his wife used to grow her wellness company, Form, into a community-powered rocket ship.
