Kim Korte

Kim Korte is a Perception and Emotion Management Strategist who helps people deepen and strengthen their resilience and mindset work by addressing the emotional foundations underneath it. Through her unique approach — blending lived experience, deep curiosity, and research into how the brain constructs emotions — Kim empowers people to better understand, manage, and work with their emotions, making mindset shifts more natural, sustainable, and real.

Rather than treating emotions as mysterious or uncontrollable forces, Kim makes them tangible, understandable, and manageable. She is known for using food and cooking metaphors to simplify emotional processes, showing how perceptions, past experiences, focus, and cultural influences combine — like ingredients in a recipe — to create the emotions we feel.

After personally navigating profound losses, life upheavals, and emotional turning points, Kim developed practical frameworks for emotional resilience that go beyond surface-level mindset strategies. She teaches that emotional clarity strengthens self-trust, supports better decisions, and fuels lasting mindset growth.

Kim is the author of Yucky Yummy Savory Sweet: Understanding the Flavors of Emotions and the host of the Flavors of Emotions podcast, where she explores emotional awareness as both a science and an art. She is also the creator of Sensory Sync, a live emotional awareness experience designed to help participants realign their perceptions, emotions, and awareness in an accessible, sustainable way.

In all her work, Kim emphasizes that emotional resilience isn’t about avoiding emotions or perfecting them — it’s about understanding how they are built, tuning into them with curiosity, and using that awareness to navigate life with greater clarity, confidence, and resilience.

Her guiding belief is simple:
You don’t have to fall apart to start paying attention. Before you break — get in sync.
