No matter what you post, the haters always seem to show up. Whether you're building a brand, sharing your thoughts, or just having fun online, negativity is inevitable. So how do you handle it without letting it ruin your day? In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, we dive into the world of online criticism, internet trolls, and why negative comments tend to stick with us more than positive ones.
I recently had one of my most viral social media posts yet—and along with the engagement came the usual wave of negativity. Some people were cracking jokes, some were genuinely trying to be helpful, and others? Well, they just wanted to hate for the sake of hating. This got me thinking: Why do people leave negative comments? And more importantly, how should we respond?
In this episode, I explore:
- The psychology of online hate – Why negativity spreads faster than positivity.
- Why people criticize you online – And why most of the time, it has nothing to do with you.
- The power of ignoring vs. engaging – When to clap back and when to move on.
- How to shift your mindset – From taking hate personally to using it as fuel.
Social media is full of quick-hit dopamine spikes, viral moments, and “gotcha” comments that people chase for clout. But at the end of the day, does any of that really matter? Instead of getting caught up in negativity, we can choose to focus on what actually moves us forward.
If you’ve ever let a negative comment ruin your mood or questioned yourself because of online hate, this episode is for you. Tune in and learn how to navigate the noise, stay true to yourself, and keep creating without fear.
Much love, and I’ll catch you next Monday. Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe! 🚀
