Sometimes healing demands that we show up exactly as we are - messy, unfiltered, and courageously vulnerable. Fresh from finalizing my divorce and barely settled into my new apartment, I'm coming to you raw and unedited from the pool area of my complex, sporting a bikini at 53 because my ancestors and spirit guides pushed me to be seen, not just heard.

The past seven months have thrown my life into beautiful chaos. Between deciding to divorce, actually going through with it, and relocating just 20 days ago, my nervous system has been utterly "shot to hell." Yet within this upheaval, I've been called to double down on authenticity. So here I am, showing up with my extra weight, my insecurities, and absolutely zero fucks left to give - because that's what genuine transformation looks like.

This impromptu episode marks a turning point in how I'll share my journey. You'll see more of me, literally and figuratively, as I work through reopening old wounds that never properly healed. As we witness the final chapter of Boomer leadership, I invite you to ask yourself the questions I'm wrestling with: What do you want from your government? From your country? From yourself? And most critically - how can others truly know you if you're not showing up authentically? Join me in keeping it punk, keeping it real, and rocking the fuck out as we navigate this journey together. Your Auntie Robin is back, and she's not hiding anymore.

KEEP IT PUNK, My Younglings!

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Yeah, hey, punks, it's me.
Your Auntie Robin, how youdoing?
I thought I would introducemyself to you Down by the pool,
just kind of relaxing, justtrying to get back into my flow.

(00:51):
But unfortunately, when you'veonly had a month from being
divorced and about maybe 20 daysof moving into your new
apartment and trying to getsettled Uh, this is where you're
at.
Um, I didn't get the podcastdone this month, last month,

(01:14):
june, I guess Um, basically,because, well, there's a lot of
shit going on and I'm hopingthat you can kind of forgive me
for that.
But and I also apologize if Iseem a little distracted Because
I'm in the courtyard, I'm inthe pool and people are kind of

(01:35):
coming in and out with afterwork taking their dogs on walks,
so it's kind of the pup monsterhour.
And when I get distracted bydogs, I I got a look, they're
fuzzy, they're cute, come on.
But my ancestors and my spiritguides kind of told me that I
needed to get my ass out frombehind the camera and out from

(01:58):
behind the microphone and infront of it.
So that's what I'm doing.
I'm doubling down actually,with the universe because they
want me to be seen, not justheard.
And I understand that now,because you're supposed to see
my progress.

(02:19):
You're supposed to see how Idevelop, how I've changed, what
happens when you do so.
It's going to be kind ofinteresting and I hope that
you'll follow me through all ofthis.
So I'm going to be doing a fewmore videos Ooh, excuse me.
A few more videos like thiskind of short, a little bit more

(02:43):
social media friendly, I guess.
But this will actually beposted as my podcast episode-ish
for this time, and I apologizefor that.
I really truly do.
But I did not estimate that inthe seven months between the

(03:06):
time that I decided I was goingto get a divorce up until the
time that I did that, it wouldbe holy hell in my life and that
I would actually have to reheal, if you will, some old wounds

(03:26):
that kind of came up, and I'mkind of grateful that they did,
because then that way I can kindof take care of it a little bit
more, get a little bit moredetailed in my work, because I
like to do that.
I'm a detailed-oriented kind ofgirl.
I'm a detailed oriented kind ofgirl.

(03:49):
But I am also kind of nervousand kind of scared because I've
never put myself out there likethis, and with my guides and
ancestors kind of pushing me alittle bit towards doing this, I
thought I would double downtoday.
And not only did I show up tofilm live, which I never have
done, my ancestors and spiritguides wanted me to show you, so

(04:13):
I decided I'm going to up themup the ante just a little bit
more than what they thought.
So I actually showed up downhere in a bikini.
Yeah, your Auntie Robin, who is53.
Yeah, I'm overweight, but Idon't care.
I don't care.
I have zero fucks to give, zerobucks to give you.

(04:39):
So I hope that you understandthat and hopefully we can come
out of this together a littlebit better, a little less
bruised and a lot more relaxed,because, goddamn, my nervous

(05:00):
system has been shut to hell.
Okay, so this is me trying torebalance and I'm hoping that
you're here for this journeybecause I think that you'll
actually, by seeing my progressand seeing how I've changed and

(05:20):
how things work a little bit,hopefully you might want to join
in.
Um, but I kind of feel like youguys need help figuring out who
you are and what you want to do.
Um, because the boomers time iskind of done their leadership.

(05:47):
This is probably the last timethat they will be in power or in
office.
So what is it that we want?
Ask yourself that what is itthat you want out of your
government?
What is it that you want out ofyour country?
What is it that you want out ofyourself?
What is it that you want fromother people?

(06:08):
But if you want something fromother people, then you need to
make sure that you're showing upas your authentic self.
And if you're not showing up asyour authentic self, well, you
kind of shit out of luck becauseyou're not showing who you
truly are.
So how are people supposed toknow who you truly are if you're
not even showing up foryourself?

(06:30):
Ask yourself that, all right.
Well, I'm going to sign off here, but I hope you guys will bear
with me while I'm workingthrough all this shit and I am
basically posting these videosraw, unedited.
Why Not for the cringe factor?

(06:52):
Certainly not for that.
It's just that I do not haveany editing software at this
moment and I'm hoping to getsome here or discover some.
If you have any recommendations, let me know.
But I'm just kind of popping onhere, hoping that you
understand that this is gonna bemy podcast episode for month,

(07:17):
so I'm sorry, forgive me.
Forgive me, but I hope you guysenjoy your day and please know
