Why Your Hooks Aren’t Working (And How to Fix Them) | The Social Circle | Ep 37

Описание: Most hooks don’t fail because they’re bad, they fail because they’re trying too hard.

In this episode of The Social Circle, Candace and Jennifer break down how to write hooks that actually work without sounding clickbaity, salesy, or fake. We talk about why most hooks miss the mark, how overthinking kills connection, and why honesty has become the real pattern interrupt on social media.

We walk you through a practical Circle Hack where you’ll rewrite old hooks using simple, human frameworks like confessions, realizations, contrasts, and shared experiences. You’ll learn how to talk with your audience instead of at them, how to test hooks without spiraling over views, and why retention matters more than virality.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, awkward, or unsure how to open your videos — this episode will help you simplify your approach and reconnect with your audience in a way that feels natural and sustainable.
