We Gotta Talk: News, Issues, and Beauty for Women

283: Navigating Hollywood, Motherhood and Bipolar, with Alessandra Torresani


Listen Later

This week’s guest is an actress who you may recognize from her runs on huge shows like The Big Bang Theory, American Horror Story, Batwoman, Two and a Half Men, and more.

She’s also the host of the EmotionAL Support podcast, which aims to address mental health stigma.

Today I'm talking with Alessandra Torresani about growing up with bipolar and what it looked like as a kid; how she managed it unmedicated during her pregnancy; and why she's committed to opening up conversations about mental health on her own podcast.


We also talk:

+ Her “aha” moment with motherhood

+ The benefit of hypnotherapy and inner child work

+ The healing modalities that have worked for her to help with mental health

+ What it was like going through pregnancy with bipolar

+ Growing up acting

+ What Britney Spears taught her about how we view mental health

...and more!
