The Corner with Penny Blackmore

Penelope Blackmore

The Corner is a place for you and I to sit and mull on things that might be interesting and important to us. From my time as an Olympic gymnast, to my creative writing pursuits, to my life as an Australian living in Germany, to my professional life, I"ve accumulated a lot of experience, and have millions of thoughts and opinions to match. I love podcasting, it"s like having an audio time machine, so I hope you don"t think me too self-indulgent, and that you"ll join me for a lovely little chat!

It's a wonderful journey to be on, but also...hard!That's why I'm sharing my little method, Essence University, for gently (and hopefully enjoyably) moving towards the end goal of **emotional genius**!!

On reframing, acceptance, and avoidance

The Corner with Penny Blackmore ·

2025/06/13

In this episode, we explore the double-edged sword of reframing — the conscious act of shifting perspective to find meaning or relief. While reframing can be a powerful tool in life and business (especially in sales), it can also become a subtle form of avoidance. I’ll share reflections on AI, identity, emotional honesty, and the tension between optimism and truth. I’m ending each episode with a journal prompt, so that by musing on these topics together, there might be a small but cool

The pursuit of lightness 🕊️

The Corner with Penny Blackmore ·

The Corner with Penny Blackmore ·

2025/04/04

I'm sharing my perhaps counter-intuitive approach to finding motivation when you have none. Pulling stories from my gymnastics career, my first "real" job, and a recent difficult experience, I'm hoping that this method might help you in a tricky time 💝Here's the Simon Sinek talk I mentioned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4ZoJKF_VuA

The Corner with Penny Blackmore ·

2025/03/21

Yes, fluid devotion is a woo-woo turn of phrase, but let's give it a whirl anyway! Today I share my perspective on how to make your time and energy work for you. (Sorry about the slight breathiness on the audio. I've done a lot of editing to try to reduce it and will make sure it doesn't happen again next time!)

Honesty, cruelty, and authenticity 🌿

The Corner with Penny Blackmore ·

2025/03/01

I think I love this episode! I talk about being honest with yourself (a lot), Timothée Chalamet, how performing authenticity limits us, and probably overshare about my own life a bit too much ;) Join me! 🩵

Welcome to my very first episode of The Corner! I'll be sharing my thoughts on how to build a sense of self-love through acceptance and the pursuit of integrity.
