MindShift Power Podcast

Your posts are writing a story about you—one that colleges, employers, and future collaborators will read. We sat down with entrepreneur and Unleashed Success host Corey Corpodian to unpack how teens and young adults can turn accidental branding into intentional reputation, and how emotional fitness transforms scattered effort into steady progress. This isn’t about being perfect online; it’s about being honest, consistent, and two steps ahead. Corey breaks down a simple system you can use today: define five core values, run every post through a quick “alignment” check, and build a weekly power action list that targets the 20% of work that creates 80% of results. We talk about real consequences of careless content, the difference between curated moments and real life, and why keeping your word is a brand advantage that compounds over time. He shares vivid examples—from viral missteps to courtroom evidence—while offering a practical path to curate your feed without faking your life. We also dive into reinvention. Want to be taken seriously after years of being the class clown? Corey explains how consistency rewires how others see you, why your circle may need to change, and how 90 days of focused habits can reset your identity. He lays out an intensity-first approach to practice—turning one skill sprint into breakthrough momentum—and shows how writing your commitments in ink raises your odds of follow-through. If you’re ready to align your online presence with who you really are and build habits that match your goals, this conversation will give you tools you can use today. Listen, pick your three power actions, and tell us what value will guide your next post.

The numbers are stark, but the story behind them is even more human. We sit down with emotional agility strategist Tricia E. Parido to unpack the layered reality of anorexia and body dysmorphia—how athletic pressure, family praise, and unhealed trauma can knit together into a coping system that looks like control but quietly erodes the body and brain. Trisha shares the moment she felt her cognition slipping and chose a different path: reframing food as fuel, rebuilding self-worth around values, and learning to mute the external noise that kept hijacking her inner voice. Across this raw, thoughtful conversation, we explore why eating disorders rarely have a single cause and why recovery can’t be one-note either. Trisha walks through practical strategies—distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and boundary-setting with the mirror—that interrupt the loop of self-judgment and bring the nervous system back online. She challenges the myth that worth is tied to a size or silhouette and explains how choosing to live is not a feeling but a daily practice. The shift is profound: from controlling food to stewarding your mind; from seeking approval to honoring autonomy; from distorted reflections to values-driven reality. We widen the lens to look at trauma’s many disguises—alcohol, overachievement, compulsive spending, chasing validation—and why ignoring pain only gives it the microphone. Trisha offers direct advice for young people standing where she once stood: turn down the outside commentary, fuel your brain so it can help you heal, and decide how you want to experience living. If you or someone you love is navigating the shadows of disordered eating, this episode offers grounded insight, compassionate tools, and a reminder that reclamation is possible without losing what you’ve built.

What if your words could be the final straw for someone battling suicidal thoughts? With a staggering 41% of LGBTQ+ youth seriously considering suicide last year, this conversation couldn't be more urgent. Miss Lulu, speaking under an alias due to the sensitivity of the topic, brings her experience working with crisis hotlines to shed light on the devastating loneliness many LGBTQ+ individuals face. "It's like a form of torture," she explains, describing how people stuff down their true selves out of fear, creating both psychological and physical harm. Most heartbreaking is the revelation that suicidal ideation often begins as young as 6 or 7 years old for some children wrestling with their identity. The discussion takes a bold turn when addressing the intersection of religious beliefs and human dignity. Is it possible to hold traditional views on sexuality while still treating LGBTQ+ individuals as fully human? The answer, both hosts suggest, is an emphatic yes. The problem isn't necessarily the belief itself but the selective application of judgment toward certain differences while overlooking others. Perhaps the most powerful moment comes when Miss Lulu shares her personal journey with body dysmorphia after pregnancy-related hair loss. By finding that small thread of connection—knowing what it's like to feel uncomfortable in your own body—she offers listeners a gateway to empathy. "Find that thread," she urges, "and then magnify it times a hundred to imagine what it's like to live in that world every day." For LGBTQ+ youth worldwide, especially those in dangerous environments, the conversation concludes with practical advice on finding safe communities online where authentic expression is possible. The Trevor Project and similar organizations offer lifelines that literally save lives. What will you do with your words today? Will you push someone closer to the edge, or pull them back with your compassion? Your answer matters more than you know.

What happens when a teenager who once couldn't see past Tuesday discovers the power to shape her future? In this deeply moving conversation, 17-year-old Meera Shah reveals her remarkable journey from debilitating anxiety and depression to newfound hope and purpose. Meera candidly shares how perfectionism and academic pressure once consumed her life, leading to severe mental health struggles that left her questioning her worth and future. "I didn't know how to see myself past the next two days," she admits, describing a time when simply waking up each morning felt like an insurmountable battle. The transformation she's undergone in just one year is nothing short of extraordinary. Through therapy, intentional relationship-building, and radical changes to her self-care practices, Meera has rediscovered joy and possibility. Her decision to make eight hours of sleep "non-negotiable" symbolizes a profound shift in priorities – from achievement at all costs to balanced wellbeing. What makes this conversation especially valuable is Meera's insights into the challenges facing her generation. She offers a nuanced perspective on how social media functions as both a numbing escape mechanism and a source of unhealthy comparison, while addressing the toxic competitive culture that pushes teens to breaking points. Her advice to peers struggling with similar issues is refreshingly practical: focus on yourself, make certain aspects of self-care non-negotiable, and remember that you don't need to do everything at once. Perhaps most powerful is Meera's message about determination. As host Fatima Bey emphasizes in the episode's mind-shifting moment: "Once you make the decision that you are not going to stay there... that is when change will happen." This conversation offers hope and actionable wisdom for anyone – teenager or adult – who's ready to make that decision for themselves. Meera also has a small business.

What happens when traditional therapy fails? For musician and comic book creator Lilia Bogoeva, the answer wasn't found in rehab programs or structured recovery systems—it emerged through creative expression and a revolutionary mindset shift. "Just do something. Any damn thing. It doesn't matter who cares, just do something." This powerful mantra forms the cornerstone of Lilia's approach to mental wellness, addressing what she identifies as our most dangerous inner demon: analysis paralysis. Through her raw conversation with host Fatima Bey, Lilia reveals how overthinking keeps us trapped in cycles of inaction while our mental health deteriorates. After battling anorexia, bulimia, and substance abuse, Lilia developed innovative healing modalities when conventional methods felt dehumanizing. Her "Harmony Healing" music therapy program helps people harness the therapeutic power of music they genuinely connect with—not necessarily traditional meditation music, but whatever speaks to their soul. Her "Rhythmic Release" dance therapy strengthens the mind-body connection, while her comic book series "Lilia the Inner Demon Crusher" visualizes internal struggles as literal battles with demonic creatures. Lilia's story offers a profound insight about ambition—how it can either heal or destroy depending on motivation. When driven by a need to prove your worth or escape emotional pain, ambition becomes toxic. But when fueled by authentic passion and connection, it transforms into a healing force. This balance between internal wellness and external achievement creates a positive feedback loop where personal health and career success reinforce each other rather than competing for attention. For anyone struggling when traditional approaches don't resonate, Lilia's journey demonstrates that healing rarely follows a structured, linear path. It moves in cycles and feedback loops, requiring personalized approaches tailored to individual needs. The first step? Developing awareness of how stress manifests in your body, then taking action—any action—to break the paralysis of indecision.
