I recently received my long coveted invitation to Clubhouse and I must admit that yes, I am fascinatingly addicted. It’s vast diversity includes talented intellectuals, highly motivated individuals and emotionally available/vulnerable souls who openly share information, thoughts, experiences and feelings. It’s like tuning into your own topic designated pod cast, radio channel or speaking engagement. You can just listen or, choose to interact, reference the bio of the speaker/s or other like minded individuals in the room. And, your encouraged to personally connect in order to develop relationships. The best part, you can easily exit when your ready to move on. With it’s multi-faceted approach, it may just have the potentiality of stage for connection and healing to many.
Engaging on Clubhouse is like being exported to a collective modern day wisdom realm and you’re not only welcomed there, your accepted and embraced for all your talents, faults and flaws. Its like having your mentor, peer, best friend, sibling, child, parent or grandparent all wrapped into one. There is something about the combination of acceptance and giving, that promotes wellness and while separate from our physically close friends, this platform seems to envelope you like a weighted blanket inviting you to reach your fullest potential as you go deeper and deeper into the security with others.
Now, I haven’t been a super active person with social media, but It’s thought provoking to wonder what our overall societal hunger is now and will be in relation to social media amid and post-COVID. We certainty know that this pandemic has helped many individuals and families find deeper meanings and a deeper sense of responsibility to what actually matters, so perhaps what we need now is something less impulse related, less immediate gratification, less shallow. A topic worth ruminating over. A satiation to our own curiosity, knowledge or emotional needs that we can then share with others in a way that actually facilitates positive change for everyone involved. Something – more real. Who knows, It might be the beginning of an epitaph to our social media structure as we know it today.
