Alyson Stoner
New York Times bestselling author and former Disney child star Alyson Stoner joins Anita Sharma for a powerful conversation about the reality behind child stardom and their work advocating for change. Alyson opens up about the "toddler to trainwreck industrial complex," signing contracts before they could write in cursive, and why child entertainers are exempt from federal labor protections. We discuss their book "Semi Well Adjusted Despite Literally Everything," the $8 billion kid influencer industry, their advocacy work on the Kid Fluencer Protection Act, and Movement Genius—the mental health company they co-founded. This episode will make you rethink everything about fame, childhood, and what it means to be "well-adjusted."
