    Addictive Homes, Lost Childhoods & the Fight to Feel Safe [S2 Ep. 12]

    In this deeply personal episode of The Bare Collective, Larissa and Jasy open up about their experiences growing up with alcoholic parents and how those experiences shaped their understanding of addiction, boundaries, and emotional resilience. This isn’t just a conversation about alcohol... it’s about the ripple effects of addiction through generations. It’s about the invisible emotional labour children of addicts often carry. And it’s about the courage it takes to choose a different path. Together, the hosts explore how cultural norms can mask addictive behaviour, why boundaries are essential (even when it’s hard) and what it means to become a cycle breaker for the next generation. Whether you’ve struggled with addiction yourself or been impacted by someone else’s, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and hope. This is an invitation to reclaim your voice, your values, and your emotional safety. KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Addiction impacts far more people than we talk about • Alcohol culture can normalize dysfunctional patterns • Children of addicts often grow up with blurred emotional boundaries • Boundaries are not cruelty—they’re protection • Self-advocacy is necessary in healing generational trauma • You are allowed to walk away from relationships that harm you • Recovery is possible—and so is breaking the cycle • Healing starts with awareness, compassion, and support You don’t have to repeat the patterns you were raised in. You get to choose differently.

    Intimacy, Algorithms & The Erosion of Standards [S2. Ep. 11]

    In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of The Bare Collective, Jasy and Larissa unpack the deeper layers behind the rise of the Only Fans movement and what it reveals about our culture, our values and our emotional wellbeing.This isn’t a conversation about shame or judgment; it’s about nuance. It’s about asking hard questions around over-sexualization, validation, energetic intimacy, and the long-term impact of choosing attention over alignment.From the silent influence of algorithms to the energetic cost of intimacy, this episode explores the cultural consequences of what we normalize and the responsibility we carry as women in shaping future standards around love, sex, self-worth, and power.This conversation is a mirror—reflective, uncomfortable, and necessary.KEY TAKEAWAYS:• Algorithms shape more than content—they shape consciousness• Intimacy is not just physical—it’s energetic, emotional, and sacred• Over-sexualization has emotional and psychological consequences• Validation at the cost of authenticity is never sustainable• Cultural norms are not neutral—what we normalize, we pass on• The desire to feel empowered must include self-respect and long-term awareness• Women play a pivotal role in redefining relationship standards• You can reclaim your power without selling your soulThis episode invites you to pause, reflect, and consider: What are we really giving away in exchange for attention?
