RE: Content Intention? + Public Vlogging | Vlog #9
"Sorry not sorry" 😭
I got on YouTube some years ago to share my photography passion and also to confront a fear I had of public speaking. Now I get to control my own narrative online. I'm actually quite a private (sometimes secretive) person, but I've learnt to share selectively in a comfortable way.
I still have apprehensions when vlogging publicly - I don't think that will ever go away - but like you I just remind myself that it is probably the first and last time I'd ever come across that person glancing at me, so why should their approval dictate what I do? Easier said that done though 👀
I like your mentally in regards to sharing but in a selective way. I like to share but I want what I share to have value. I think it's important to keep a standard of privacy especially after experiencing something that millions of people ended up seeing.
And definitely easier said then done, the nerves are still there but I just keep telling myself - fuck it! You got this girl. A little pep talk to build up my confidence. I've never been at good public speaking and even in large social groups I remain pretty silent, but I have things I want to say, so I'm trying to work on it.
