She completed her Post-Graduate Certificate in Holistic Science at Schumacher College, England in 2014.  She was previously a medical ethicist at Stanford University, a health consultant to national foundations, and an Instructor in Women and Health at the University of Colorado.

 

Robin works one-on-one in person and online with those in the second half of life through 40plus Integrative Health in Blue Hill, Maine. 40plus Integrative Health targets the specific physical and mental health issues of individuals traversing midlife and beyond.  Robin's workshops, research, and writing focus on the particular life stage of being in one's 50's, 60's, and 70's when one feels "More Older Than Young (aka M.O.T.Y), but not yet Elder".  

 

Robin is a professor of both Ecotoxicology and Climate Change and Eco-psychological Applications at Viridis Graduate Institute (www.Viridis.edu).  In alternating years, she leads ReCalibrate Camps for people 50 -80 (www.ReCalibrateCamp.com).

"Being in our 50's, 60's, and 70's is a unique time of passage in which we are neither 'young' nor elder.  It is a time "between" in which we hone ourselves into a finer work of art, using the colors of our previous experiences and the inspiration of our growing awareness of the inter- and intra-connectedness of all life."

 
"My intention is to help you be as healthy in body and mind as you can be within the ecosystem of your life --whether you are in peak health, injured, or have a chronic or acute disease.​"
