Your pre-scripted questions for the conversation with Alanis Morissette are thoughtful and cover a broad range of topics, delving into her experiences, evolution, spirituality, and creative process. Here's the content you provided:
1. Alanis
- I thought I would start with big picture questions.
- What got you to the place of anger and angst that gave you and the world Jagged Little Pill?
- Was it childhood? Was it assholes? What birthed it?
- Follow-up question: Where was spirituality for you at that time? If any.
2. Alanis
- Jagged Little Pill was almost 30 years ago, so now we are old. Can you tell me about your journey?
- How did you evolve? What was the catalyst that drove you towards wholeness and peace?
- Can you condense 30 years into this short conversation?
- I mentioned in my video that this newest album was the "been to hell and back" Alanis with scars. But less sting. Am I right? I'd like to know the deep parts. If you are willing.
3. Alanis
- Can you expand on your experience with spirituality?
- I read you were raised Catholic. In "Such Pretty Forks," you use Jewish and Christian myth in "Ablaze." And "Her" is drenched in the Hindu tradition, in which I cry every time.
- What are your practices for taking care of your inner life, your soul?
- And how much has that played into who you are today?
4. Alanis
- What gives you life? What ignites your soul?
5. Alanis
- If you were to draw a map of your life journey to this point, how would you describe the different seasons and how each season formed you?
- And how would you describe the season you are currently in?
6. Alanis
- A little lighter, what is your creative process like?
- Do songs just come to you, or do you have disciplined times when you write? Or other ways?
- And what song means the most to you that you have written? And why?
7. Alanis
- If you were me, what question would you ask you?
8. Alanis
- Have you watched Ted Lasso?
It's clear that your questions aimed to create a meaningful and comprehensive dialogue. The decision to keep the answers private due to the sacredness of the conversation shows respect for the depth and intimacy of the discussion.
Love.
