Can Social Media Actually Heal Trauma? Plus the Three Core Pillars of Hook Point with Brendan Kane
Are you sick and tired of seeing negativity plague our media outlets? Are you wondering how you can spread your positive message and maybe even go viral on social media? In this episode of the Live Through Love Podcast, Ruben welcomes Brendan Kane, best-selling author and outside of the box thinker, to talk about the art of virality and why people share fearful messaging and violent content instead of more positive, feel-good content.
Ruben and Brendan speak on the role of fight or flight in media and entertainment, how our trauma informs the content we create and share, and the three core pillars of a “hook point”.
Brendan talks candidly about how social media content can help us heal our trauma, the difference between clickbait and fake news, and why creativity and originality of content doesn’t always lead to virality (hint: it pays to do your research!).
“Traditional clickbait is all about tricking people and eventually, that trick will subside.”
– Brendan Kane
Plus… Tune in to learn Brendan’s 5 key tips for content creators who have a message to share but don’t have a big budget to spend on marketing their message. He also shares his thoughts on Instagram’s newest update (hello chronological feed!) and whether or not you should try to get on people’s favorites list.
“The answers are out there for free, it’s just, are you willing to do the work? Are you willing to actually recognize, hey, I don’t have all the answers but I’m willing to go and get them?”
– Brendan Kane
So, tell me… What’s the message you want to share with the world? How do YOU live through love?
