Shadow Corner

Sayen Gates

Welcome to Shadow Corner Podcast, a reflective space for those ready to meet themselves honestly and do the inner work that leads to real transformation. This podcast is for anyone navigating self-discovery, emotional growth, and the process of unlearning patterns that no longer serve them. We explore the unseen layers of the self — the beliefs, habits, emotional wounds, and inherited narratives that quietly shape our lives. Through thoughtful conversations, solo reflections, and grounded insight, each episode invites you to deconstruct old foundations so you can rebuild with intention, clarity, and self-trust. This is not about perfection or quick fixes. It’s about accountability, awareness, and learning how to sit with yourself without judgment. We talk about personal growth, emotional intelligence, boundaries, identity, healing cycles, and what it truly means to live authentically in a world that often rewards disconnection. Shadow Corner is a space where truth is honored, curiosity is encouraged, and growth is allowed to be messy, honest, and human. If you’re ready to reflect, challenge what you’ve been taught, and create a life that aligns with who you actually are — you’re in the right place. Let’s do the work, together.
