What I Can Honestly Share About Being On Social Media (Almost) All The Time with Vicky Llerena
True story : I was watching the American Meme on @netflix where it showcased the rise to fame of some of the mega social influencers today .
.
As a content creator and brand builder enthusiast, I’m always super conscious on creative story telling on all my social platforms ( 😬 especially my IG & FB stories). If YOU are a content creator I know YOU can relate to this feeling : the constant brainstorming sessions 👌‼️that occur in our heads . Our creative juices flow and we are obsessed with constantly creating new content for our followers 🙏🙌
.
But the one thing that sickened me the most is that some of these influencers ( not all!) expressed a depressive and lonely life and validation for them only occurred on social media .
It made me think that this mindset can definitely depress anyone to either create online validation or shut out social media completely!!
.
In all honesty, yes social media can become obsessive and vanity metrics can screw with your mind ( if you are a content creator , you can relate )
.
So I will challenge myself to be more conscious with my social platforms . I will challenge myself to promote more conscious driven messages that promote motivation , industry knowledge and brand empowerment . 💯
.
I love that I can connect with people whom I’ve never met when they engage with my posts. It’s the reason why I share pieces of my life with you all . .
But I also accept the reality of social : the trolls, the foolish DMs, the privacy concerns.
Yet,I choose to empower through social ,share my knowledge on the industry, collab with rock star influencers ,create purpose driven messages.
I refuse to adapt that depressive mindset on social media and instead , use platforms to influence purpose 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 #2019goals
