What if the version of you that seems “strong”... is just your most polished protection?
And what if the real path to freedom... is stripping it all off?
In this raw solo kickoff, your host Ala Zwardon takes you into the essence of what it means to be Bare and Aware. From emotional reactivity to spiritual awakening, from heartbreak to unconditional love, she shares her own story of shedding the layers of protection, perfection, and performance that kept her disconnected from her truth.
This episode is a love letter to your heart—the wild, tender, untamed heart that knows how to heal once you stop pretending and start feeling. Expect real talk on vulnerability, ego, somatic healing, and how to unlock the portal to divine bliss… no matter what life throws your way.
Let this be the beginning of your journey inward. The truth is: it’s safe to feel. And even safer to be.
We explore:
Why your “cool girl” persona might be blocking your healing
The hidden difference between true inner peace and the I-don’t-give-a-fuck masked emotional suppression
How to recognize when you’re fueling a mental story instead of feeling your truth
The practice that helped me shift my emotional reactivity and dissolve ego in real time
Why vulnerability is the first portal to spiritual liberation
You’ll also hear the untold backstory of this podcast—and how a wild child, ex-stripper, and bliss-loving mystic found her truth in the heart of chaos.
