  • In a previous video, I shared how I overcame social anxiety and why I quit social media. For me, social media had become very toxic and only led me into comparison and further into consumerism. Today, I’ll share with you the ugly truth about social media and influencing, as someone who has been making UA-cam videos for over 4 years now. These are things most influencers don’t talk about, and traps I’ve fallen into myself. Hopefully this helps you to consume content more intentionally and to avoid comparing your own life to our FAKE highlight reels.

    I like how you said that it's an art form for many creators. That's how I feel about it. 💖

      Yes! It’s helpful to keep that in mind.

    That was refreshing! ❤ You seem like a very kind, real person. It's my second video of yours that I watched. But I loved your honesty and most definitely will be checking your content. Subscribed! Thank you! ⚘️

    Loved the recreation of a 'waking up' shot. You're so funny. Thanks for the video.

      It was so much fun making it. 😄
      I'm glad you liked that part.

    Refreshing video. 😊. When I watch videos where someone is waking up or walking in the front door, I do think about how that person has to set up the camera outside, then inside or waking up in the morning, then resetting the camera after they are up. And then major editing. It’s nice to hear this … it helps the audience realize that everything is not as comfortable or as easy as the videos portray. But once they are done, for us, the videos are so much fun to watch. 😊😊

    I've been watching UA-cam long enough that I've figured out the "tricks". That said, I'm still human and I have to work harder to tell my brain, "this is curated, not reality". I simply do not want to have to work so hard, mentally, to counter the false messages from media. So, if a creator is just "too perfect" in their content or bombarding me with subtle messaging to overspend, I unsubscribe.
    One thing I find interesting is the comments section on UA-cam. So, so many creators only allow comments that are 100% in agreement with their content. Even if someone's criticism is constructive, kind, or just questioning something, it's not shown to the rest of us. I've seen UA-camrs admit this. It gives the illusion that if you do not agree with something the creator said/did, there must be something wrong with your opinion. You are the only one who has a different opinion. I could give so many examples of this where this is very psychologically damaging. It requires incredible discernment and wisdom to understand the why? why? why? of what's being presented to us.

      Oh wow, you dropped some gems with this comment. ✨
      I think cancel culture and social media are very much related. You also make a great point of knowing when a channel/media outlet is too much for us to unsubscribe.
