In this episode of The Creative Genius Podcast, host Kate Shepherd sits down with Cory Allen—author of Brave New You, mindfulness expert, and prolific musician—to explore the journey of breaking free from self-limiting beliefs and reconnecting with the authentic self. Cory shares his own story of overcoming a traumatic childhood, turning inward through Eastern and Western philosophies, and discovering the power of mindfulness as a tool for deep self-awareness.

Together, they discuss:

• How to identify and reframe the negative stories we tell ourselves.
• The difference between the voice of creativity and the voice of fear or conditioning.
• Practical techniques to navigate the inner world and access deeper creativity.
• Why mindfulness is key to unlocking your true potential and breaking free from self-doubt.

This conversation offers profound insights into how we can learn to trust our intuition, listen to our inner voice, and stop allowing old stories to block our creative power. Cory’s wisdom will inspire listeners to start seeing the world as full of possibilities rather than obstacles, and his actionable strategies will help anyone on the path to self-discovery and creative expression
