About Robyn
Since 1992, Robyn’s extensive ‘University of Life’ professional journey, has taken her ‘from the Boardroom to the Jailhouse’ and most points in between, facilitating and presenting programs to a diverse client base, ranging from government, corporate and small business, to community groups and schools.
Robyn has also worked with some of our most vulnerable, which includes women in prison, refugees, kids at risk, long term unemployed, people with intellectual disabilities, mental health, suicide prevention, people affected by domestic abuse and those sentenced for impacting domestic abuse.
Her latest book, 'BEing A W.I.S.E. Leader' explores the concept of Elevating our Brain/Heart Wisdom...and her philosophy... 'we are all born with innate wisdom'.
It was way back when she was a kid, that Robyn became an avid observer of human behaviour and had a dream to be a writer. Many years later this passion resulted in her resigning a successful Advertising Career and selling her Sydney home, to fulfill that dream. It was this step that ultimately led Robyn to the Sunshine Coast in Queensland; and the Hyatt Regency Coolum, where she was trained to be ‘seen and heard’ as an Experiential Corporate TEAM Development Facilitator, from 1992-1997, before returning to Sydney.
From 2006 – 2010, Robyn produced and hosted ‘Conversations with Robyn’ (CWR) which aired on community TV Australia- wide and Foxtel. CWR attracted some of the world’s most prominent teachers and speakers on human behaviour, quantum physics and sustainability. Guests included Caroline Myss, Dr Joe Dispenza, Helen Reddy, Gregg Braden; and 15 episodes were filmed in 2008 in China, on Olivia Newton-Johns ‘Great Walk to Beijing’ - a fundraiser for Olivia’s Wellness Centre in Melbourne.
Robyn’s passions extend to understanding the importance of our connection to nature. It was this love of being in nature in 2017, where she ‘accidently’ wrote lyrics to Paul Simon’s ‘Sound of Silence’ melody. A few years later she produced the music video for ‘Nature’s Song – Words of Guidance’.
Another of her philosophy’s, ‘if we knew better – we would do better’, embraces the concept that we can work together, productively and respectfully, where self-accountability becomes the norm.
It is this philosophy that is the foundation of Robyn’s absolute belief that when enough Women step into their Innate Wisdom, it will become a major tipping point in our planet’s trajectory, thereby ensuring a Global Village where all people are valued, heard and respected…and all our children are safe.
