your girl got hacked | the happiest sad person podcast25 Jun 202400:20:50

Episode #39 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast.

Join me, Alessandra, as I explain how on earth I was hacked in the year of our lord, 2024. Yep, you heard that right. I talk about how I'm trying to learn something from this whole experience and how I maybe manifested it by accident. (Whoops:( ) It's really a take on trying to make lemonade from some nasty lemons.

So, take a listen and commiserate if you too are going through it -- or get some relief that you're not in my situation.

As always, it's a choose your own adventure experience.

Also, feel free to report my hacked accounts to help a girl out. They are linked below! :)

High Taste/Low Skill Quote:

“Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know it's normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through."
― Ira Glass

Episode #38 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast.

Join me, Alessandra, as I open up about my desire not to film today and my futile addiction to perfectionism (always to my own detriment). I also give my own spin on the notion that the grass is not greener on the other side and how social media makes me feel behind and depressed.

It's really an ode to the idea that there's nothing more hollow than fulfilling someone else's dreams.

So, listen to this pod -- and then go get those dreams, girl! [or guy, ambition don't discriminate here] !!

I’m back, baby. I know, I know. It’s been a minute. Well, a series of minutes. And I do extend my sincerest apologies.

No really, I do.

And this ep talks about where I’ve been, or lack thereof. What I’m doing now and what’s on the horizon. It’s a rebrand of sorts, and I hope you come along for the ride.

Sometimes absence does make the heart grow fonder, right?

But, seriously, thanks for sticking around or welcome if you are new.

Hope you like the ep!

A solo episode on film, who would have ever thought? I hit the depression that can come with birthdays, the power in getting older and what exactly (or inexactly) is my purpose. It's meta, it's honest. And hopefully it's coherent. :)

Also this episode ended early, but stay tuned for a nice long episode coming your way soon. In the meantime, here is me being raw and honest and authentic with you as my life on this day was a bit chaotic. Who knows, maybe you will relate a bit to the struggle. Because, as they say, (and honestly who is “they”?) the struggle is real.

Episode #36 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast.

Join me, Alessandra, as I embrace the unemployed yet somehow constantly busy life of a creative. I also muse on Harrison Butker's commencement speech and how repulsive I find that way of thinking and how to potentially use existentialism as the salve -- spoiler alert, it always comes back to existentialism.

"You just get there..." | The Happiest Sad Person Podcast 0919 Sep 202001:07:10

Send us a text

My guest today is Kalí Alfaro, a Perth-based psychologist and hypnotherapist.

We discuss her beginnings in psychology and the impetus for her starting clinical hypnotherapy, the process of hypnosis and it’s benefits for all stages of a human being’s life, and delve into the importance of a holistic, well-rounded and ever-evolving wellness practice.

This conversation was so fascinating, and I love discussing ways to improve oneself in healing and cathartic ways — I'm now so motivated to engage in a hypnosis practice ASAP!

Her book, Empowered Minds, is out NOW! Links are below.

Episode #8 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast.

Another solo episode unpacking the absurdity that is making a podcast, noting the start of my intermittent fasting and discussing the seasons of friendships. Some people come into your life not for a long time, but for a good time -- and often that opens up your life for the next best thing or the actual better thing.

Episode #7 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast.

Recorded on 5/31 during the George Floyd protests; there's no introduction as my brother Nate and I got right into a discussion of racial injustice and what in the hell is going on in America right now. We also questioned the two party system, critiqued my script and delved into the need for humans to tell stories. A lovely juxtaposition of frivolous and deep -- and that's why we call it the happiest sad person podcast, kids.

Bit the bullet and am finally uploading solo episode #2 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast. In this episode I wax poetic about getting into the solo recording groove, discuss the ever-present quarantine and get into the nitty-gritty of a pilot script I wrote during lock-down (I tried to pull a very mediocre Shakespeare). It's all over the place, but in a fun way -- I promise:)

"I'm glad I had that moment of being lost..." | The Happiest Sad Person Podcast 0419 Sep 202000:24:21

Here's to the first solo episode of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast. It was a process, but I'll get better at them -- Scout's Honor.

It was a major hurdle to jump through -- being honest about why I started the podcast and embracing my vulnerable side. I know, so cringey to say, but it is better than it sounds -- hopefully. But it felt cathartic to be honest and just talk about things without trying to over-correct or sensor myself. If I'm not there yet-- hey, at at least I gave it the old college try, right? There's always next episode.
