Social media hook:
My journey from

Uses narrative elements to create emotional connection and investment.

Story-Based

Journey stories create investment

"My journey from [point] to [achievement]" works because it tells a story. People think: "They went on a journey. I want to see how it ended." It's engagement wrapped in narrative.

Plus, journeys create relatability. When you say "My journey from struggling to success (and what I learned along the way)," you're showing you understand struggle. People relate to struggle. They click because journey stories feel inspiring—even when the journey is curated.

Journeys are just stories with better investment

It works because it hits three triggers: story, investment, and relatability. The journey creates story. The from-to creates investment. The learning creates relatability. People see "My journey from struggling to success (and what I learned along the way)" and think: "I want to see how they did it. I want to learn from them." They click because journey stories feel engaging—even when the journey is selective. It's not about being clever—it's about making stories feel personal.

About Story-Based

Story-Based hooks work because people love stories. When you share journeys, you create investment. Not because they're smart—because they're human and want to see how stories end. These hooks don't need to be clever. They just need to tell stories. The "my journey from" hook does exactly that—it makes content feel narrative.
