the diary of an empath

hi, I’m Robin

I started this blog in 2016 because there was a part of me that desperately wanted to be expressed—to write and connect. My greatest gift in life is my intuition. It's also been, at times, the most difficult to follow, especially when it means taking the road less travelled. Discovering I was an empath finally gave me a word for how strange I felt and a roadmap for learning how to put myself first—a journey I continue to share.

 
 

 
 

Finding my way back

The past few years have been a deep dive into life's biggest transitions. In 2023 I became a Mom, and in 2025 we welcomed another son. Postpartum life has been a genuine struggle, but through gentle practices, I'm finding my way back to myself, reclaiming my voice and my presence.

On these pages you’ll find words for:

  • Healing through major life shifts

  • Finding purpose and building confidence in your gifts

  • Nurturing your creativity and listening to your inner voice

Along with what I'm loving and feeling inspired by!

 

A Little More About My Home Base

  • Family: My partner, our two sons, and our furry crew: a dog named Eloïse, a bunny named Ben, and a cat named Mellie.

  • Location: Home is in Nova Scotia, where the ocean gives my nervous system peace. My partner is from Montréal, so we travel there often—Montréal always nurtures the creative in me.

If you have a minute, please come say hello. I always love hearing from you!
