🧡 Episode Overview
Helen’s back (a little hoarse but always showing up!) with her latest Unsponsored By discoveries and a deep-dive on how to run great group Lives on TikTok — from planning to moderating to managing guests with grace.
đź’„ Unsponsored By: Lip Finds of the Week
- CoverGirl Outlast Lip Stain – natural, long-lasting color that feels like your “teenage lips” again.
- LA Girl Sheer Tint Lip Balm – a light, minty tint for everyday wear.
- Bonus: pair with a clear balm like BeautyStat for a fresh, hydrated look.
🎥 Main Topic: Group Lives Etiquette & Strategy
1. Hosting Your Live
- Plan ahead: have notes, recipes, or discussion points ready.
- If you have a guest: review topics before going live.
- For team Lives: assign who covers which parts — treat it like a mini show rundown.
2. Moderators & Boundaries
- Pick moderators you trust and align on tone and rules.
- Moderators reflect you — don’t let them block impulsively.
- Communicate expectations: when to mute, when to block, how to help manage guests.
3. Setting Expectations for Your Community
- Clearly define the topic of the Live and stick to it.
- Gently steer conversations back on track when they drift.
- Stay consistent with your rules — it builds trust and avoids drama.
4. Viewer & Guest Etiquette
- Don’t repeatedly invite yourself into a Live.
- If you’re invited, don’t take over the conversation.
- Respect the host’s topic; don’t self-promote or ask for freebies.
- Never suggest adding guests mid-Live — plan it privately ahead of time.
5. Managing Drama & Protecting Energy
- Think of Lives like a real-life gathering: be polite and respectful.
- Set clear boundaries from the start — how many guests, who can join, what’s off-limits.
- Remember: communication prevents hurt feelings and awkward moments.
🌟 Helen’s Takeaway
Whether you’re the host or a guest, a Live should feel like a friendly dinner party — not a free-for-all. Set expectations, stay gracious, and remember: good boundaries make good broadcasts.
