In this transformative episode of Soul Sparks, we sit down with shadow life coach and transformational healer Sayen Gates, host of Shadow Corner, to explore how facing our inner darkness can become the most loving act of self-liberation. Broadcasting from South Carolina, Sayen shares her powerful journey from spiritual confinement to soulful freedom, revealing how shadow work unraveled years of emotional suppression and sparked a mission to help others reclaim their wholeness.
Sayen walks us through how embracing our unloved parts empowers our authentic self, the importance of creating safe spaces for emotional truth, and why healing isn't a solo act but a communal movement. From shame to self-trust, Sayen drops practices and insights that’ll inspire you to meet your shadow with compassion and courage.
About the Guest – Sayen Gates: Sayen Gates is a shadow life coach, transformational healer, and host of the Shadow Corner podcast. Rooted in South Carolina and known for her soulful presence, Sayen helps people navigate suppressed emotions, break generational patterns, and come home to themselves.

Key Takeaways:
Shadow work is the process of integrating the parts of ourselves we've hidden or shamed.
True power lies in authenticity—accepting your full self means no one can use your past against you.
Healing happens in safe spaces that allow emotional truth without judgment.
Begin with three questions: Why am I ashamed? What happens if I integrate this? What can I do today to reclaim my power?
Personal transformation accelerates through community—when we heal aloud, we give others permission to do the same.
