5 Ways You Can Spread Love in Your Communication

communication is about spreading love blog post ngalula kabutakapua

One of the first hashtag I saw when joining Instagram was something related to suicide. At the time it seemed to confirm the idea that maybe that platform wasn’t for me but now I realise that wasn’t my usual solution-based reaction.

For the past couple of months I have been running a Facebook live show called “Change the world with…” and it’s all about having a conversation with people who are changing their corner of the world and how they use communication and marketing to do so. The purpose of it is to show changing the world is not something only Nobel Prize Winners, Presidents, big CEO, Saint etc can do. We all can.

With baby steps and small actions, we ALL can change the world Click To Tweet

And in that spirit, after reflecting on the call for help coming from the social media platforms, I have decided to share some tips on how to spread love in your communication.

What does spreading love means

Spreading love means sharing uplifting, motivating, inspiring content that people can relate to. It’s a lot like life coaches do all the time but every social business can do it as well.

Why you should spread some love in your communication

  1. Sharing love makes you feel good: I mentioned about EC in a recent blog post, we are inherently influenced by the emotions around us, so if we share love we’ll also feel better
  2. To reveal your authenticity: usually sharing positive feelings comes as part of a story where there was a low point, an overcoming moment and a resolution. Sharing that story allows people to see who you are and that’s a powerful tool to create a community
  3. We are responsible for one another: for a long time I remained close into my working bubble but as human we are meant to be working on a team and as such, we are responsible for one another
