as posted by the channelHere’s the Real Way to Build a Following on TikTok
Hawk discusses what it really takes to build a following on TikTok, cutting through the endless advice videos and focusing on authenticity. With over one million followers gained across four years, Hawk shares personal experiences of showing up every day, speaking honestly, and staying true to himself despite serious challenges.
He recalls being doxed, harassed, fired from his job, and targeted with campaigns to silence his voice, yet emphasizes that the consistent choice to be authentic is what sustained his growth on TikTok. Hawk also touches on giving his opinions about Joe Biden, Donald Trump, and Taylor Lorenz, and how speaking his mind led to more challenges—but also to a loyal audience who valued honesty.
Throughout this discussion, Hawk reflects on the bumpy road, the friendships lost, the lessons learned, and the appreciation he feels for those who have supported him through years of ups and downs. His story shows that TikTok growth is not about mastering editing tricks or flashy effects, but about speaking your mind, standing by your beliefs, and being present every single day.
