In addition to the comparison trap, so much of social media requires going outside of your comfort zone and being vulnerable. We’re posting content, performing videos, filming stories, and sharing insights into our daily life so we connect with our audience. Trends, dances, stories – it’s all a performance and we are doing it in front of a TON of other people who have the opportunity to scrutinize our every move. Every time we post a piece of content, we are opening ourselves up to the opinions of others who are anonymous most of the time, and that can be freaking daunting. And trust me, people aren’t always so nice.
