I want you to have this.

Published 5 months ago • 1 min read

Hello, sweet sunshine:

You've been on my mind and I'm reaching out this morning to let you know that though it may not be evident, you're on my mind A LOT. I wonder how you're doing over there and I hope that each day finds you curious and seeking new adventure.

I have this same wish and intention for myself because I want to walk through my days - my life - deeply connected to this experience and to those around me. What a joy it is that we're here together, right now.

One of the ways I find that connection is in the process of creating. Lately, I've been focusing on opening my mind to the many forms the creative process can take and reveling in the freedom it brings. Wallowing, is probably a better word for what I've been doing!

My studio is my go-to when I want to get lost in the creative process and I carry a notebook everywhere I go because writing is so powerful and it informs my studio practice. If you want to see what I've been up to lately in the studio, take a peek at my insta. Connect with me there because I want to see what you're doing, too.

I've also been creating some other things that are SO.FREAKING.POWERFUL.

  • I am finding new ways of relating to my kids: they're grown now and re-visioning these interactions is so rich and lovely.
  • I am building a brand new relationship with an amazing man! This is an unexpected surprise and has brought with it so many opportunities to be brave and to reimagine welp...every darn thing.
  • I'm deeping existing friendships while loosening up in them at the same time. I know that might not make sense but trust me, it's wonderful. :)
  • I'm cooking up new travel adventures and I can't wait for them to materialize.
  • I've been working to expand my reading and listening habits. Here's a great book I finished recently - The Good Ancestor.
  • As I've been working on healthy habits and fitness goals, I've found incredible new friends and support structures in my life. And I feel strong - what an incredible thing that is!

Reader, I wanted to drop by before the bustle of the holiday season fully sets in and wish you the VERY best and let you know:

I want you to have this

music beating time
to your hopeful heart

time to watch
the sunset burn itself
to the ground

rumpled linens
warm with sleep

mornings steeped
in possibility

oatmeal
toast
black coffee

the sort of love
that feels like coming home

I'm sending so much love! xoxoxoxoxox Robin

Oh hey there, Reader! I hope your early summer is ripe with possibility and beauty. I'm dropping by to let you know that it was time to do a little clean up on the workshop content for A Call to Create. You have access for the lifetime of the workshop and I hope you take full advantage of that. Take my word for it, each time you go through the content or work a little more on your incredible creations, it's a different experience and it just gets better and better. It is my dearest wish that...

Hola! I've recently returned from Mexico and I've been working on my Spanish. Want to meet me on Duolingo? Brushing up on Spanish is just one way I've been learning something new. I find that creating new things in my life gives each day more depth and meaning and I REALLY DIG THAT. A couple of days ago, I facilitated a creative workshop with Mindful Soul Center, which was fabulous and challenged my tech skills as I balanced the Zoom meeting, the slides, and tried to make sure I was looking...

I mean, COME ON - I'm very convincing. Same? Any of this sound familiar? Nah, I don't need to get up this early, I'll [fill-in-the-blank with whatever thing I'm definitely NOT doing later], do it later. I'll get back on track next week. No sense of bothering now, it already started. I'm running late. Sometimes, we undermine our own dreams and desires by making excuses and then falling for them. Another biggie is having an all or nothing mentality. This is hardly ever true, by the way. For...
