The People Who Treat You Badly and What to Do About It // Tea with Robin Podcast Episode 35

What do you do about the people who don’t treat you right? How do we not go to kookytown getting so upset and handle what we need to handle without throwing ourselves under the bus? In this episode, I’m talking about all the scenarios–from strangers to friends to family members, and share ideas on what to do with your upset and how to not let it ruin your day. Today’s inspiration comes from Mr. Joel Osteen who gave me one of the best quotes ever. This week’s letter comes from a friend who’s just learned that a loved one has… …Read More »

Healthy Boundaries and How to Set Them Even When It’s Scary And Nobody Understands Why You’re Upset // Tea with Robin Podcast Episode 34

robin hallett intuitive healer setting boundaries

If you ask me, we spend way too much time worrying about things that other people might do or say in response to us being who we are. We worry about the perfect way to be in order to avoid upsetting anyone else and because of that we end up doing things we don’t want to be doing. We say yes when we mean no. We pretend to care when we don’t. We act interested when we aren’t. And in those times when we speak up and do what we need to do, we can feel so tortured about it… …Read More »

Me Too, Wooboo.

Me too, wooboo.

Hello, sweet Friend, I am sending you some love and a bit of magic — the kind that is peaceful and sweet and knows just where it’s needed most. This has been a big week. Yikes, it feels like I’ve been saying that to you a lot lately. I thought about not writing to you about Me Too this week. I have this little issue with not wanting to be a downer in my letters to you. I get scared to ruin the party sometimes and I don’t want people fleeing in droves because of something I shared but I think… …Read More »

Sell crazy someplace else, we’re all stocked up here…

sell crazy someplace else

I got an email a while back from a relative and then I had a hot and prickly stomachache for two days. This person, my uncle, had subscribed to my newsletter list and although I kind-of-sort-of noticed the name, I didn’t really put two and two together; it’s not like his name is Zebulon or anything. After his receiving a few of the weekly love notes I send to The Love Posse, he sent this scathing reply: Shame on you Robin, you can’t even bother to write a personal note to your family. Not even one hello from you…not even… …Read More »

Why We’re Afraid to Shine and How We Can (with video)

why we

Hello sweet Friend! Just because you were wounded doesn’t mean you can’t shine. It is completely possible for you to shine brightly, confidently, even if you were repeatedly told that you weren’t worth it or made to feel bad for being yourself. Today’s message is about shining brightly and why that’s so darn scary. Many of us were hurt for being ourselves… there we were, shining our light so very brightly, confidently, and right then we were clobbered for revealing our true selves. We were teased, or slapped, or shamed, or laughed at…or worse and these pieces of our history… …Read More »

Not My Circus, Not My Monkeys

not my circus, not my monkeys

Hello sweet Friends, Here we go launching into the holiday season and you know what that means! Between the moments of merry-making, there will be lots of opportunities for us to practice choosing peace and ease over the other stuff we could be swirling in. As you’re making your way, I am inviting you to remember a very important truth: You are not the monkey whisperer and this isn’t the circus. It’s just too hard to manage everyone and their whackness – and anyway, it’s not your job! Better for you to just practice good boundaries and watch your own… …Read More »

Yo Ho, Me Hearties, Yo Ho!

sacred-bird-by-robin-hallett

I was talking to my friend today and she said all serious-like, you know if we commit to a forgiveness practice, stuff is most definitely going to come up for healing. And then we made the crazy eyes at each other. And then the peals of laughter came…because I have committed and she has committed along with many other friends of ours, and oh yes baby, the stuff is most definitely coming up for healing. Deeper, tougher stuff. The stubborn kind. I am facing all kinds of stuff I hadn’t expected already. And you know what? I am happier than… …Read More »

The Horrible Uglies We Never Tell

the horrible uglies we never tell by robin hallett

I always say I am not much of a journaler… but I have 20 years of journals here. Sometimes I tell #1husband, should I croak unexpectedly, forget making me look presentable…go find those journals and burn them! More and more, I realize there are stories I am carrying that need to go. These are stories which aren’t serving me… but they’re inside me still. These little light nibblers get in the way, sucking up the juju available. In the way. Holding me back. Informing my NOW with stories about can’t, won’t and don’t. I call them the Horrible Uglies because… …Read More »

Holidays, Family, and Baggage, oh my!

Holidays, Family, and Baggage, oh my!

I read this great Anne Lamott interview where (among a lot of other things) she talks about dating. She’s on match.com and met a wonderful guy–cute, funny, handsome–but she just couldn’t see the point in their continuing because he said he had a completely normal childhood. No baggage to speak of, what on earth would we talk about? Mmmhmm, I totally get it. Holidays, family, and baggage, oh my! This is the time of year when those of us carrying the baggage will likely be spending time with the people the baggage is about. Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, New Years… it’s a… …Read More »
