This week on Pretty Basic, we spiral from favorite seasons and serotonin levels to the very real fears of living life online. 🌷☀️🍂 And yes, we’re breaking down the internet theory connecting your favorite season to your nervous system. Then, Alisha takes us through the emotional rollercoaster of thinking she found her first gray hair… only to discover it was actually something much worse. Can you guess what? 👀

The conversation takes a deeper turn as we chat about the scary reality of parasocial relationships online, influencer safety, the horror stories that come from posting in real time, and the fine line between sharing your life and protecting your peace in today’s internet culture.
