Benjamin manages to hone in on some incredibly relatable moments in his videos. Most of us have been in the slightly awkward situations he describes, which is why we enjoy the videos so much. That, in turn, makes us want to share them with our family, friends, and colleagues.

Relatability is a vital part of internet content. Without it, you’re relying on pure luck to go viral. However, if you know your audience very well (and post consistently!), you can stand out from the crowd on TikTok and social media by appealing to their personal experiences.

When it comes to dealing with our sense of embarrassment, the healthy thing to do is to feel whatever we feel. That’s far easier said than done, though! Embracing the heck out of our emotions, however uncomfortable they might be, is a skill like any other. We get better at doing it with practice!

The more we embrace our feelings instead of running away from them, the better we become at resolving awkward and embarrassing situations in the future. Not only that but by acknowledging our embarrassment and/or mistakes, we prevent them from turning into shame further down the line.

However, some of our experiences and memories continue to torment us even years later, despite our best efforts to come to terms with them. In these cases, it can really help us if we think about how those situations might have improved us. In short, we want to reframe the narrative. Perhaps by embarrassing ourselves in public, we learned an important lesson or became more emotionally resilient. Or we learned something new about ourselves or even managed to connect to other people despite all the emotional fallout.

The reality is that we tend to focus too much on our personal failures and embarrassment. We believe that everyone in our social circle must be thinking about all the times we messed up. The fact is that most other people are worrying about what others think of them, just like us. In short, all of us are hyper-focused on our own embarrassment. That’s a freeing thought!
