What does a non-traditional career path in the music industry really look like?

In this episode of Media Mindset, we talk with Gavin Carroll, Vice President of Creative Licensing at Warner Chappell Music, about his journey from babysitting and receptionist roles to producing major projects and working at the highest levels of music publishing.

Gavin shares insights into: • How sync licensing works in ads, film, and television • Why most music never makes it into commercial projects • The mindset traits that matter more than formal education • How creatives can find opportunity without being musicians

This episode is for anyone navigating uncertainty, career transitions, or creative ambition — inside or outside the music industry.
