UNFILTERED:
Life & Awakening

Podcast

Hello and Welcome to the UNFILTERED podcast on all topics of Life, Love, Awakening, and Spirituality!

If you find yourself on a journey, seeking answers to larger questions, or simply find yourself in a confused state of being, this podcast might be right for you.

We started this podcast while being on our own journey of self discovery, awakening, and possibly just simple growth into adult maturity, with the hope that it can act as a catalyst both for ourselves in our progress and also for our listeners to start seeing the commonality between our lives, the journey of self, and awakening as a journey to self love, happiness, and simple knowing.

We take on various topics, including relationships, parenting, spirituality, religion, soul self, trauma, depression, sadness, happiness, and love, all in line with our journey of progression, actualizing, and knowing. With all discussions in mind, our goal is to always frame the podcast to offer more insight into self overcoming obstacles, finding center, grounding, and allowing our true nature to grow and expand.

We hope hearing our own amazing struggles, confusions, revelations, and discoveries of self will help you gain a personal perspective on your own being, open your mind to larger strokes of the universe, and see your life as an amazing canvas of love.

Thank you for being here, taking part in our journey, and being on yours!

Always with Love, Tanya & Elliott

Episode 116: Spiritual Bypassing

December 9, 2025

Hello and Welcome to episode 116 of the UNFILTERED: Life & Awakening Podcast!

In this episode we take on the topic of Spiritual Bypassing when it comes to the path of healing, awakening, drawing awareness, and finding self.

We start by defining the term, the idea, and how the concept of aligning with positive, higher frequency thoughts in the spiritual community contains trappings to avoid and not truly address the trapped undercurrent of our nature.

We start of with generalized examples and later go into a discussion of a particular instance from our experience and the tools and sets of aware thoughts we can use to draw awareness, acceptance, feeling, and ultimately unravel unprocessed shadow/child trauma.

We discuss the trappings that have us short-circuit, taking us away from any real observation outlooks and simply go into a limbic system based respons, and how we can pause and draw awareness to larger interpretations of the system.

We then talk about the completeness of the whole system, the design of energetic and physical expression of our being, and the true observation on experience of our human self.

As always, hope you enjoy listening and find your own truth in the system.

With Love, Tanya & Elliott
