“Trust Your Gut”
Trust your gut and use discernment.
I’ve been part of a live stream community centered on fostering deep connections, self-reflection, and meaningful experiences. Recently, a commentary video emerged about the creator of this community, suggesting they are not who they portrayed, prompting me to do some digging, as I had sensed something off about them, though I initially attributed it to their personality. Although I’ve been a subscriber for a long time, I’m uncertain if the creator was consistently active throughout, as I only watched a handful of their videos until their live streams caught my attention.
In the latest live stream, which I joined to bid farewell to those I’ve connected with, I hoped the creator would share their side on this matter. I typically weigh both sides before deciding, but I sensed something off with their demeanor, which suggested to me that they were made aware of the allegations (I believe I should express my views since I introduced them to my audience).
I understand that every story has three sides, and I possess only one side. However, my experience with someone who misrepresented themselves seems similar to this situation. Initially, I ignored my instincts during their live streams because I formed real connections, but I can’t ignore my gut any…
