We recently connected with Cory Charles and have shared our conversation below.
Cory, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Let’s kick things off with your mission – what is it and what’s the story behind why it’s your mission?
The Superhero Mindset is deeply rooted in my mission to empower individuals to unleash their inner SuperHeroes and lead lives of glorious purpose and fulfillment. My mission is not just a statement; it’s the beating heart of the organization, driving every decision and action I take.
The story behind our mission begins with a recognition of the immense potential within every person. I’ve witnessed countless individuals, from diverse backgrounds and walks of life, struggling to tap into their unique strengths and overcome the challenges they face. This realization ignited my passion to create a platform that could guide people toward their extraordinary potential.
My journey is inspired by personal experiences of transformation and growth. I’ve faced countless setbacks, restarts, reboots, doubts, and moments of uncertainty in my life, just like anyone else. But through perseverance, self-discovery, and a commitment to continuous learning, I unlocked my own inner SuperHero. I realized that I had the power to shape my destiny and make a positive i.m.p.a.c.t. (inspiration, motivation, purpose, action, courage and transformation) on the world.
This profound transformation fueled my desire to share these principles with others. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to become the hero of their own story. My mission is meaningful because it’s a reflection of the commitment to helping others recognize their inherent strength, resilience, and capacity for positive change.
Every day, I see individuals breaking free from self-imposed limitations, finding purpose in their lives, and becoming catalysts for positive change in their communities. It’s these stories of personal growth and empowerment that reaffirm our mission’s significance.
My mission is not just a statement; it’s the culmination of my own transformative journey and my unwavering belief in the potential of every individual. I’m driven by the desire to inspire, guide, and support others on their paths to becoming superheroes in their own lives.

Have you ever had to pivot?
Certainly, there was a significant turning point in my journey when I had to make a pivotal decision. For years, I had been immersed in a successful career in sales. I was good at it, and I achieved commendable results. However, there came a moment when I realized that even though I had found such success in sales, my true purpose was something different.
It was during an impromptu coaching sessions that it hit me like a lightning bolt. I was passionate about coaching and training others to reach their full potential. Seeing the spark of understanding in someone’s eyes, the “aha” moment when a complex concept became clear, was incredibly fulfilling. It was in those moments that I found far more satisfaction and fulfillment than any sales target I had ever met.
The realization that my true calling was in training and coaching was both liberating and terrifying. It meant stepping away from a comfortable, successful career and embarking on a new path, one filled with uncertainty. But the passion and sense of purpose I felt were too strong to ignore.
So, I made the pivot. I started investing my time and energy in coaching and training, and it was like a puzzle piece snapping into place. The journey wasn’t without its challenges, but the fulfillment I gained from helping others achieve what they once thought impossible was immeasurable.
This experience taught me that sometimes, the most significant growth in life comes from recognizing and embracing your true purpose, even when it means making a significant pivot. It’s a reminder that success should align with your passion and values, and when it does, the rewards are not just material but deeply fulfilling.
Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?
I vividly recall the time when I was gripped by an overwhelming fear of public speaking. The mere thought of standing in front of an audience, attempting to convey a message, sent shivers down my spine. My heart raced, palms sweated, and my mind became a jumbled mess. It was a crippling fear that had a firm hold on me for far too long.
However, I knew that my journey demanded more from me. I had a message to share, a passion burning inside, and a desire to inspire and connect with others. So, I decided to confront this fear head-on. It was not an easy journey, and it certainly wasn’t a quick fix.
I began by seeking out opportunities to speak in small, supportive settings. Whether it was a team meeting or a local community event, I forced myself to step onto that stage. The first few times were torturous. My voice quivered, and my knees felt weak. But I persisted.
I immersed myself in books and resources on the art of effective communication. I discovered that knowledge was my ally. The more I understood the techniques, the psychology, and the craft of public speaking, the more I gained control over my fear.
In moments of despair, I reminded myself that some of the most celebrated speakers were not born with innate confidence. They, too, had to overcome their fears and insecurities. It was their stories of resilience that inspired me to keep pushing forward.
I practiced, rehearsed, and sought constructive feedback from mentors and peers. With every small triumph, I grew more resilient. The fear didn’t disappear overnight, but it no longer had the paralyzing grip it once did.
Over time, my resilience transformed me from a terrified, stumbling speaker into someone who could confidently address large audiences. I realized that it was not just about mastering the technical aspects but also connecting with the audience on a personal level.
Today, I am a keynote speaker, and I can genuinely say that my journey from crippling fear to the stage was a testament to resilience. I’ve learned that resilience isn’t about the absence of fear, but the courage to face it, to learn from it, and to use it as a stepping stone to achieve one’s dreams. Public speaking, once my greatest fear, has become a platform for me to share my passion and inspire others. And I hope that my journey can inspire you to overcome your own challenges and fears, whatever they may be.
