In this engaging episode, host Suzanne Taylor-King has an insightful discussion with community builder Yurii Lazaruk about the power of authentic human connection. Suzanne shares how she aims to connect on a real level in her online interactions rather than using stiff, robotic communication.
Yurii explains his perspective that quality relationships matter more than vanity metrics, relating an experiment where deeper personal posts led to more meaningful conversations despite fewer likes. He advocates for "friendworking" over networking and stresses the value of vulnerability, openness, and truthfulness in building trust.
Suzanne and Yurii explore the difference real conversations can make compared to brief social media interactions. Yurii recounts surprising reactions when calling people rather than merely tagging - showing how a personal touch creates stronger bonds. They discuss how voice messages convey more meaning through tone and emotion.
As a community consultant, Yurii elaborates on how he rapidly empowers businesses to grow their organic communities by sharing knowledge, not prolonging dependence. Suzanne praises this ethos of getting clients results quickly and then setting them up for self-sufficiency.
With insightful observations about human behavior and connections, Yurii and Suzanne deliver an uplifting dose of motivation to nurture authentic relationships - online or off. Tune in for an energizing discussion about the power of genuine personal interactions.
