We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Brandon Taylor. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Brandon below.
Hi Brandon, thanks for joining us today. We’d love to hear the backstory behind a risk you’ve taken – whether big or small, walk us through what it was like and how it ultimately turned out.
Brandon Taylor took a risk during a time when politics and emotions were at an all-time high, and the world felt shut down. Many of us were stuck at home, uncertain about what the future held, and I was no exception. In that moment of isolation and tension, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and post content about what was happening around us—the heated social issues, the climate of the times, and the feelings so many were bottling up.
But I didn’t stop there. I added my own twist, sharing comical posts about my fraternity life, mixing humor with honesty. The combination caught people’s attention—my perspective, my experiences, and my ability to find lightness during difficult moments began to resonate with audiences on TikTok and Instagram. I dove into understanding analytics, learning what content connected most with viewers, and how to present myself authentically. To my surprise, my personality and insights started to spark engagement and grow my following faster than I anticipated.
Of course, not everyone cheered me on. Some who I thought would support me became critics, questioning my approach or doubting my intentions. Despite that, I kept going, focusing on bringing smiles to faces and reminding people—myself included—that even in challenging times, laughter and honesty matter. Through comedy and candid daily reflections, I dedicated myself to giving people a reason to show up for themselves, just as I was trying to keep showing up for me.
That risk, that leap of faith during a difficult era became the foundation for everything I’ve built. I’m still striving, not just for success, but to use my platform to encourage others, foster connection, and provide a little relief for anyone navigating the challenges of life.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
I am a young creator who found my voice during a time of global uncertainty, when politics and emotions were running high and many of us were confined to our homes. Feeling the weight of the world, I decided to take a risk and begin posting content that spoke directly to current events, social issues, and honest emotions, alongside comedic reflections on my fraternity experiences. This blend of relevance and humor quickly caught people’s attention on TikTok and Instagram, allowing me to build a growing, engaged community.
My Path Into Content Creation
I started sharing my perspectives and experiences on social media because I wanted to connect with others and lighten the mood during a tough period for everyone. Through authentic posts and understanding audience analytics, my reach increased, and I realized that my unique mix of honesty, comedy, and relatability had real impact.

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
The most rewarding aspect of being a creative for me is truly the joy I feel when I am able to bring a genuine smile to someone’s face, even as they navigate the hardships and responsibilities of daily life. In a world full of tension and uncertainty, knowing that my content can offer a moment of laughter or relief for someone who is struggling makes every risk and challenge worthwhile.
Joy in Uplifting Others
There’s something special about using comedy and honest expression to connect with people, letting them know they’re not alone in what they’re feeling. Seeing comments or messages from followers telling me that my posts made their day a little brighter gives me a deep sense of purpose and fulfillment.
Making a Real Difference
Being able to turn my own challenges into something positive that uplifts others is what keeps me going. That exchange of joy—helping others find hope or laughter amid their responsibilities—reminds me why I started creating in the first place. If I can give someone a reason to smile and encourage them to keep showing up for themselves, then I know my work has made a meaningful difference.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
Yes, there is a clear mission driving my creative journey: to help people feel seen, bring genuine joy and laughter to their everyday lives, and remind them to keep showing up for themselves no matter what challenges they face. My work is not just about entertaining—it’s about creating a community where authenticity and positivity can thrive, even during the most difficult moments.
