It’s often a difficult road to produce a podcast and Alli Simpson is experiencing it firsthand. Opening up her honest thoughts, she revealed the intense emotions of her one-woman show, ‘So Alli’. The whole adventure was “bittersweet” for her, extreme exhaustion mixed with a very deep feeling of personal power. She continually faced difficult and unforeseen obstacles, but felt completely victorious because the entire project was carried out according to her style, without a single deviation. She spoke of “betting on herself for the long haul, we’ve only just begun,” as this is just the first step in her free-spirited creative journey.
Her statement resonated with her fans, a large part of whom have accompanied her throughout her entire career. One of the long-time fans compared this development and said: ‘Alli, I’ve been with you since you were a little girl in America. From Disney radio to watching your broadcast “That’s Why I’m Single,” I’m amazed by your growth. I love your podcast and how you continue to do amazing things.’ This sentiment reflects a 10-year-long adventure from a Disney star to a businesswoman who decides her own destiny.

Other creators were the first to provide support and are well aware of the amount of time and effort required in the process. One user had a somewhat similar point of view, saying: ‘I totally understand you girl. I’m just a woman who does everything and runs two Instagram accounts, and I also start a small business, trying to market myself so that people care, that’s hard! But don’t forget about yourself because burnout is real! Have whole days to yourself, it’s okay if a podcast is a little late because the world won’t stop turning!’ This message illustrates that all independent creators face the same challenges, which makes it even more important to take care of yourself while working on big projects.
The support of family members was another factor to highlight. Cody Simpson, her brother, shared a basic but impactful confirmation message: ‘You’re doing great. I’m very proud of you. This family support adds a bit of warmth to your professional achievement. Another enthusiastic follower made his praise even higher by saying: ‘You missed killing such an important word… because that’s what YOU do on a daily basis, wishing you an amazing week, happy Sunday night my beautiful, magnificent angel.’
The topic of the podcast was also discussed when a very enthusiastic and loyal listener was already predicting what the topic of the upcoming episodes would be. ‘I think I’ve guessed what the next episode of @soallipodcast is about, I think it’s your return from your neck injury, I’m dying to hear that whole story elaborated in detail,’ wrote the user, who exhibited his strong interest in Simpson’s personal accounts and the close connection he has with her through the audience. His explosive podcast episodes often delve into such personal stories.
There was jubilation, but with the celebrations came a word of caution. One more commenter gave the following advice: ‘Don’t overdo it. Don’t rush, take your time.’ This would be a good reminder of the delicate and difficult balance that is required when one is pouring all of one’s personal energy into a passion project, a problem that Simpson herself had when she described the work as exhausting and empowering.
