We all want to be comfortable and accepting of who we are, but when experiencing really difficult times in our lives, it becomes challenging beyond what we can know.   We tend to judge ourselves and believe we are “less than” or inadequate.  When it is time to transform our lives and we make the decision to grow, we need to be proud that we are willing to face our greatest fears and that we chose to face our demons so we can grow and awaken to our authentic selves. Robin shares her insights on what it is like to go through these times, and why it is so necessary to access what makes you okay in your own eyes with objectivity and compassion.   Learn more about Awaken Radio

We all carry Shame & Guilt without even recognizing how these adopted ways of behaving, thinking, and responding limit our light and personal self-expression, not to mention our joy.     Robin explains how these feelings come into our lives and over time affect all of the relationships we have, including the most important one, which is with yourself.     When we can forgive, take responsibility, and look at how our judgments have influenced us, we can transform and create a space for real freedom and growth.   Learn more about Awaken Radio

Most of us live our lives believing and acting as though we are in control.  We become angry and disillusioned when life does not go according to our plan.   We often fight the flow of our life, not accepting reality as it is, and it hurts. Robin explains that faith and surrender go hand in hand and they are important tools, especially when going through very difficult times in our life.   What if we can surrender to the process of life and allow, rather than become resentful and angry? Robin explains and gives us examples of how we actually become stronger and more in touch with our hearts and soul if we allow ourselves to surrender.   It doesn’t mean we live in passivity, but we are happier and in peace when we recognize the power of surrender, touching our divinity along the way.

What does love mean to you? How many of you have been utterly destroyed at the ending of a relationship, and closed your heart as a result?   Robin explains that we often react from our wounds without even recognizing that we have “shut down” our hearts. Are you willing to give up your stories and self-defeating attitudes in order to experience the kind of love for which your soul yearns? Robin talks about what contributes to the closing of our hearts and how we can learn to recognize our wounds so that we can experience greater intimacy and deep love in our life.   She suggests we take responsibility for our own needs so that we eliminate blame and experience a spiritual relationship that will light up our world with ecstatic love.   Learn more about Awaken Radio

Why is it that many of us find it extremely difficult to embrace faith? What kind of life can we live without faith?     Robin talks about how no matter what difficulties we face and how devastating the road ahead may look, there is a rhyme and rhythm to life that cannot be denied if we only are open to “seeing” what is around us.  Furthermore, she explains that with the lens of faith, all things are possible.   Robin clarifies why we have forgotten who we really are through the damaging ideas of our cultural training, and how important to our joy and peace it is that we consider faith as an essential operating principle in our lives.   Learn more about Awaken Radio

We have been taught that compromise is important in all our relationships.  When is it appropriate to put our own needs and values first?    Is there a time when it is necessary to compromise, and when is it in our highest and best interest to do so? However, when does compromise become a sacrifice?  Robin discusses how when we sacrifice our own inner knowing and integrity, we do in fact create separation. Often times, we then experience anger and resentment as a result, and then we destroy the closeness we are attempting to create.  We are invited to pay attention to our inner feelings, and act in a way that is empowering to all our relationships.   Learn more about Awaken Radio

When our heart says it is time to “wake up” to our authentic self… leaving the stories of our past and conditioned ideas behind… we enter the Dark Night of the Soul.   It appears that our life is falling apart, when in fact it is falling away so that you can be reborn to a new you. Robin explains that the time has come for you to go deeper into the truth of you than ever before. This is a difficult and often painful time as your need to feel secure cannot be met.   You rise, you fall, only to rise again as the Phoenix from the Ashes, more empowered, self-loving and conscious of who you really are… experiencing so much more joy, liberation, and peace.   Learn more about Awaken Radio

Can there be more to our relationships than we realize?  Robin speaks about how all of our relationships serve our highest good, even if we are not aware of how.   We come into this life with soul contracts in place with the desire to work out our karma with another. Recognizing our deepest wounds is undeniably the most difficult “work” we do in our life.     Listen and gain a deeper perspective of how we are best served through our soul contracts with another.   Learn more about Awaken Radio

One of the most painful choices we can make in life is to leave a relationship, especially when we are still feeling so much love for our partner. When we hear our soul calling to grow and expand and become more of who we truly are, often times it becomes necessary to end a relationship. How do we handle the feelings of doubt and insecurity, and even worse, feelings of guilt because we don’t want to hurt the person we love? Can we get clear enough with our intentions and direction and make a decision that will change our life forever? Robin shares a personal story and encourages her listeners to overcome their obstacles to doing what they need to do for themselves, knowing that what is good for you is good for everyone else too.

When relationships end… does that mean the relationship is a failure? 

Did we fail if we chose to end a relationship?  Is it more desirable to stay in a relationship over a long period of time… does that make us more successful in life? 

The answer is NO!  Robin discusses how all our relationships serve our growth and evolution… being in service to our soul. 

We learn and mirror each other in order to discover those unhealed places inside of us and through this process, although often can be painful, we will find a joy and love inside of us that we could not find any other way.
