Video isn’t just about showing up—it’s about showing who you really are.

I had the opportunity to sit down with Chris Bogue, improv performer, video coach, and creator of The Pattern Breaker. Chris brings a fresh, comedic edge to business videos on LinkedIn, helping people ditch stiff scripts and start making real, human connections through short, engaging content. We talk about how improv shapes authentic messaging, why so many people overthink their videos, and how asking your audience one simple question can spark a whole wave of meaningful content.

Chris shares smart, low-pressure strategies to stop the scroll, build trust, and create videos that feel like conversations—not commercials. If video content feels overwhelming or fake to you, this episode might just change the way you think about showing up online.

Highlights:

• A simple 3-part framework to create videos that feel real and engaging.
• How to “yes, and” your audience to co-create more authentic content.
• Why your video hook matters more than your background or camera gear.
• The improv mindset that helps you relax and connect with your audience.
• What it really means to blend value (the broccoli) with entertainment (the cheese).
