Natasha Rothwell created, executive produced, and stars in the highly anticipated series How To Die Alone.

Natasha is best known for her Emmy Nominated performance in HBO's The White Lotus and is set to reprise her role as Belinda Lindsey in the third season of the series currently in production.


She is also known for her critically acclaimed work as a series regular, writer, director, and producer on HBO's Insecure, for which she has won a Peabody Award and received the 2022 NAACP Image Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy.

Having previously written for Saturday Night Live, and after penning screenplays for Netflix, Paramount, and HBO Max— Natasha's original screenplay Black Comic-Con was selected for the 2021 Sundance Screenwriters Lab.

Her genre-bending feature, along with several other projects, are in development at her production company, Big Hattie Productions—founded in 2020 to focus on creating, producing, and developing projects that champion marginalized voices in subversive ways.


In this episode we talk about:

  • Being alone vs being lonely
  • How she handles her own tendencies toward people-pleasing and burnout
  • Working with doubt, faith and the venerable cliche of "trusting in the universe"
  • Envy (and how it's a partner to the scarcity mindset)
  • Therapy
  • Meditation
  • Why she loves RomComs — and her issues with them
  • And we go Behind the scenes in a TV writer's room — and why it's even tougher when the character is you
