Andre and Alicja close out Halloweek with the most haunting topic of all — love.

They explore why intimacy feels unsafe, how childhood wounds shape attraction, and what “ego death” in relationships really means. Between laughter, heartbreak, and raw honesty, they examine why we chase connection but fear being truly seen.

From trauma bonds to spiritual surrender, this episode is both therapeutic and terrifying — because love asks us to die to our defenses and be reborn as someone capable of truth.

In the third chapter of Halloweek, Andre and Alicja uncover the story of Dorothy Eady, better known as Om Seti — the woman who claimed she lived as an ancient Egyptian priestess.
What starts as a mystery turns into a profound conversation about faith, reincarnation, and the mechanics of the soul.

They explore whether consciousness survives death, how organized religion rewrote our beliefs about rebirth, and what it means if memories — or even souls — can return.
Along the way, they react to AI explainers, ancient Egyptian legends, and viral clips about past-life memories, alien origins, and the physics of eternity.

Between skepticism, humor, and revelation, this episode dives deep into one question humanity can’t stop asking:
Do we ever really die — or just wake up somewhere else?

Andre and Alicja discuss what it’s like to die and come back. From real near-death stories to the science of consciousness, they explore time, energy, and the possibility that our souls never really die. Equal parts scientific and spiritual — this episode invites you to look at death not as an end, but a return to something infinite.

Andre and Alicja explore the psychology of outrage, forgiveness, and performative morality in a Halloween-themed special. From viral clips to AI intimacy and social media addiction, the conversation dives into how outrage culture rewires our empathy and what it means to find truth in an age of noise.

In this heartfelt new episode, Alicja and Andre open up about the recent days of their walk across America and the emotional discoveries it’s sparked. From avoiding discomfort to questioning purpose and free will, they explore why it’s so difficult to simply be still — and what happens when we stop distracting ourselves long enough to listen.

This raw, introspective conversation dives into fear, identity, love, and the paradox of seeking purpose in an already meaningful life.

As the cross-country walk continues, Alicja and the team reflect on what’s really happening beneath the surface.
What began as a bold mission to reconnect with the country has turned into something far more personal — an honest reckoning with avoidance, burnout, and self-betrayal.

In this raw conversation, Alicja opens up about using big projects to escape heartbreak, the fear of disappointing others, and the pressure to perform authenticity while streaming. Andre challenges her to see the difference between cooperation and submission, and the team explores what it truly means to be honest — with others and with ourselves.

The first two days of the pilgrimage brought sore feet, surprising moments of beauty, and deep reflection.
Andre and Alicja talk about the challenges of slowing down, learning to listen, and facing the discomfort that comes with growth. From finding an authentic voice to rediscovering gratitude in the smallest encounters, this episode explores what happens when you stop running from silence and start walking toward yourself.

In this episode of the Naked Truth Therapy Podcast, Andre sits down with Rocío Aquino and Ángel Orengo, co-authors of The Orchid: The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses. Together they explore the five “codes” of awareness, gratitude, forgiveness, acceptance, and intention — a framework for breaking cycles of trauma and reclaiming personal power.

You’ll hear Rocío’s moving story of loss and renewal, Ángel’s insights on supporting feminine healing spaces as a man, and practical ways to apply the codes in daily life. They also discuss the tension between empowerment and social media, body sovereignty in today’s health culture, and how community can be built beyond algorithms.

Perfect for anyone curious about inner work, self-leadership, or the balance of masculine and feminine energies in a hyper-digital world.
