Alec and Ross commiserate over their mothers’ deaths while Matthew adds his wisdom to the conversation. They share how they’ve coped with the horrible reality that death is final and harsh, but also agree that at point accepting it and finding some value in the loss is critical to your mental wellness. The comic misses his mother deeply. She taught her son to value himself and go after whatever he wanted. When Ross expressed interest in show business, she supported him wholeheartedly. His deep bond with her now plays out sweetly on his Instagram cooking posts, where he practices the lessons learned long ago in her kitchen. Ross also reveals the challenges he faced when as the Intern on “The Tonight Show.” He recalls how Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc, then at the height of NBC’s “Friends,” were cruel to him on camera and how it eventually came full circle, explaining that ten years later, Matt found Ross and apologized for his diva behavior. He ends the anecdote by saying, “I’m still waiting to hear from Matthew Perry.” If you’re going through any kind of grief, you will find comfort in listening to this poignant podcast, as you can learn the process of healing, through acceptance and hope, and how it can actually add something to your life.

Alec Mapa: Hot Mess with Matthew Dempsey Psychotherapist

In this episode, Filipino-American actor and comic, Nico Santos, joins Alec for a no-holds-barred discussion of Imposter Syndrome, the feeling almost everyone has of not being good enough. It’s only when Alec is doing standup that he’s free of his overwhelming anxiety because he’s in control. Nico reveals the paralyzing fear he experiences auditioning for big roles, like the mega hit romantic comedy Crazy Rich Asians and NBC’s “Superstore ”, something he has never talked about before. The comedic actor says he is scared to fail and scared to succeed. When he does win a part, he is sure he’ll get fired. Another story Nico hasn’t told is the horrifying experience of losing his eyesight while just beginning to work on an Off-Broadway play. What started with haziness in one eye, got worse as rehearsals went on. He would eventually go blind during one performance. Luckily he was treated and has regained much of his sight, but it fed into his anxieties about not being good enough to do the work he loved. Psychotherapist and co-host, Matthew Dempsey says the feeling of not being good enough, or of being a fraud, is common. He jumps in with good advice for all of us: “Your fear is not you. It’s a part of you. Think of success as an island and enjoy it. You deserve it.” If you’ve ever felt inadequate to the task at hand, this is the show you should hear and take to heart.
