Robin is no stranger to a life in motion. Having spent four decades trotting the globe, initially as part of a Canadian foreign service family in Asia, Robin has woven her life around adapting to new countries, overcoming personal and professional challenges, and finding her path in the vast world of expatriate living.
She's carved her identity through myriad roles — from journalist constrained by diplomatic limitations, to an author providing guidance for expat families, and now as a key figure in an environmental education revolution through her family's project at Finca Cantaros in Costa Rica.
A Purpose-Driven Life Beyond Borders
Robin offered a personal look at how she sustained her career identity while supporting her husband’s diplomatic endeavors and the implications of her nomadic lifestyle on her work and self-perception.
Robin’s writing is rich with the influence of her travels, offering listeners a window into how a life lived across continents can shape one’s creativity and body of work.
Key Takeaways
