Julianna Pillemer is an assistant professor at NYU Stern School of Business whose research explores creativity, authenticity, and the psychology of online audiences.Why do creators spiral after going viral? Why does reading every comment eventually break people? And is "just be authentic" actually good advice — or is it a trap?Expect to learn what "audience entanglement" is and why it changes everything a creator makes, what a "chamber of despair" feels like and why it's more common than anyone admits, why the algorithm acts like a co-author who keeps hijacking your work, the three strategies creators use to move from dysfunctional to functional entanglement, why the same DM can destroy one creator and inspire another, what rage bait and the manosphere have to do with audience entanglement, the difference between audience capture and audience entanglement, why "just be yourself" is far more complicated than it sounds, what alter egos like Kobe's Mamba Mentality and Beyoncé's Sasha Fierce reveal about authenticity, how to think about authenticity as evolution rather than a fixed state, and what "strategic authenticity" actually means in practice, and much more.00:00 What Is Audience Entanglement? 01:20 When It Starts: The Viral Moment 02:45 Dysfunctional Entanglement05:05 Gaming the Algorithm: Battling Platform Volatility 06:15 The Hate Comment Trap 07:05 Does It Affect All Creators Equally? 14:45 Three Strategies to Escape Dysfunctional Entanglement 19:55 Why Algorithm Changes Reset Your Progress 24:40 Same DM, Two Reactions: The Mindset Difference 37:30 Rage Bait, the Manosphere & Audience Capture 39:40 Audience Capture vs Audience Entanglement 49:25 What "Authenticity" Actually Means 51:25 The Alter Ego Strategy01:05:30 Authenticity as Evolution, Not a Fixed State 01:07:35 Strategic Authenticity: Practical Advice 01:08:40 Where to Find Julianna's Work
