EPISODE #023 WITH ALORA ROSE
What if letting go wasn’t the end… but exactly what you need for a new beginning?
In this soul-deep episode of Drops of Gold, Jeff Scult flows with Alora Rose—somatic guide, spiritual midwife, and multidimensional mirror for transformation. Together, they dance at the edge of identity, peeling back layers of protection and programming to uncover what’s real, what’s alive, and what’s always been waiting beneath the noise: the truth of who you are.
If you’ve ever felt stuck between versions of yourself…
If you’ve ever whispered, “there’s more to me than this”...
If you’re ready to die to the false so the real can rise—this one’s for you.
In this episode, you’ll explore:
What ego death really means—and why it doesn’t require killing anything
How the body stores identity and how to gently unbind from outdated self-concepts
Why grief is an essential (and beautiful) part of growth
What to do in the “void” between who you were and who you’re becoming
How to come back to your senses—literally—through ritual and embodiment
The interplay between form and formlessness, and how to let life move through you
Tools to refine your ego instead of reject it—and build intimacy with your soul
This episode isn’t about ascension.
It’s about in-scension—coming home, through the body, to the divine within.
✨ For anyone in transition, transformation, or tender reinvention…
This conversation is your soft permission to pause, to empty, and to trust that what remains is holy.
