Robin Rice is an internationally published author, online teacher, social thought leader and mentor. Her writing has been translated into three languages and distributed in nine countries. Robin has traveled the world to study indigenous leadership from a wide variety of traditions and these themes are the background for all of her work. Blending the past and the future to meet the needs of the now, Robin created Be Who You Are Productions, Inc. as a way to bring spiritual and personal growth to much needed global change. It is a creative organization that offers "Exact-Center-Of-The-Box" solutions to social change in both profit and "gifting" platforms. The company creates a no-cost social change project for the betterment of the world each year. In addition to teaching contemporary shamanism and "Healing Through Presence And Beauty" workshops and online apprenticeships, Robin offers deeply personal Executive Change Consulting to artists, doctors, entertainers and other leaders whose work touches the lives of others. Robin lives with her passionately true love, Brian, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Her two grown children are still her greatest pride and joy. Kudos For Robin's Writing:"I... L-O-V-E... LOVE Robin's books!!! I read 'A Hundred Ways to Sunday' because it was gifted to me. It sat on a shelf for a while (until I was really ready for it, I suppose). When I finally picked it up...I couldn't put it down!! I immediately ordered Venus for a Day & Do-Overs after and I devoured them as well. The stories are all so wonderful and really give the reader the ability to be in them with the character! I've shared them with many people and they are some of my favorite fiction books EVER! I usually don't read fiction but these novels inspired me & taught me new things about myself. Truly awesome writing worth sharing over & over & over again!" -Leslie Stein, Lead Like A Girl "A Hundred Ways to Sunday was pivotal in my spiritual transformation. I read and reread it like a bible. Robin's ability to write engaging stories while teaching spiritual truths and healing techniques is awe inspiring." -Mary Long, Herstory Network"Each of Robin's books have appeared in my life just as I have needed them, helping guide me through the toughest times. Call them serendipity or more accurately call them 'gifts.' Her books speak to you in an honest, true, and heartfelt way - like your oldest, dearest, closest, wisest, tell-it-like it-is friend who, while never pretending to be perfect herself, touches your truth, heart, and soul in a gentle, kind, healing, and nurturing way. They help the reader look within without preaching or judging. They help the reader look at oneself with kinder eyes and a more open mind. Her books become friends to the reader." -Carolyn Bentley "I translated one of Robin's books into German some years ago. Amazing lessons and compelling reading! Reading it at least twice is a must so as not to miss the many small details that may well escape your attention the first time round." -Ulrike Kraemer "Must reads! All of them. Once you begin though, be prepared to clear your schedule until you reach the final sentence... and then find yourself wanting to read EVERYTHING she writes! Each word is precise and the stories are all about living this life to its fullest while following your heart... What's so beautiful about it is that 'you' the reader are so immersed in the lives of the characters their lessons become yours." -Wendy ElwellInternational Kudos For Robin's Work:Robin Rice is whatever we need her to be. I see her most affectively as a visionary, a mastermind. She can go into groups of people and move the entire group forward. She can revolutionize a trend and take it in a much more meaningful direction. Big mind. Brilliant thinker. Problem solver. A light not of this world, lighting this world. With global reach. If I were Robin for a day, I'd touch everything I walked by. Because everything Robin touches turns to gold. Not just gold as in gold, but gold as in truth, gold as in pure, gold as in love, gold as in beauty, gold as in highest possible possibility. I'd show people where the doors are, the portals, the passageways. I'd unlock people's handcuffs, and jail cells, and windows. I'd look deep into their eyes so they could know that place within them where they are already free. I'd whisper the secrets of love, life, meaning, truth, soul onto the wind so it would flow into, around, and through everything and everyone. I'd laugh. A lot. That's what Robin does. -McCall E, Utah.Robin's voice is an incredible vehicle. The music is so compelling. She has the ability to make people focus inward and listen just by speaking. Her tone is important--I don't enjoy anything preachy, lecture-y, or ominous. I appreciate optimism, positivity, humor, and issues I can relate to. Robin always offers that. -Terry N, Arlington, VirginiaRobin is not interested in me living HER version of "the dream." She knows there is no THE dream & wants me to find MY dream. She wants me to be the best ME, not a carbon copy of her, which is what a lot of mentors seem to want. Robin has lived through some really challenging events in her life through which she has hammered & forged a character like none I've ever seen. She is truly a woman of her word, gives more than she takes, lives in true alignment with her values, & is honest in the most refreshing way (even when it is not easy to be so honest). The more I've worked with her, the more blessed I feel & the more I see just how much she lives what she teaches. -Leslie S, NevadaRobin is a beautiful, magical, wizened woman. She is gentleness, grace, wisdom, warmth, approachable, and has humor. She's of the earth and yet not, with her watery ways. Even though water is soft, fluid, there's little that can stand in its way. That's Robin, someone powerful and with fierce compassion. I see a better world, a ripple effect from Robin that keeps building and spreading out, awakening more, healing more, bringing soul to life for everyone...so that humanity's story does not have a bitter end. She makes dreaming into a better world accessible in a simple, elegant, warm, wonderful way... -Jennifer P, MassachusettsKlaus Joehle wrote: "The Universe is saying: Allow me to flow through you unrestricted, and you will see the greatest magic you have ever seen." I've seen this in Robin at work in County Kerry, Ireland. She teaches shamanism, but also demystifies it. Shamanism is such a loaded word (like religion and spirituality), but for me, part of Robin's appeal as a Contemporary Shaman is that she weaves her message through the many diverse projects she's involved in. She is very practical and I've seen her wisdom carry through. Her work strikes me as not being aloof, or clandestine. It's very earthy... very "in the world, but not of the world." -Dave M, Dublin, IrelandRobin Rice is about... Gratitude: She understands that all that comes to her and dwells within her is Spirit. Vision: She easily sees beyond the illusion to the heart of the real. Potential: She's committed to helping others realize their own epiphanies. When I think of Robin, the first thing that leaps into my mind is Hozho, the Navajo term that encompasses harmony, truth, beauty and, above all, balance. Also the Hebrew word Shekinah, which stands for the feminine aspects of the presence of God, which some perceive as a goddess of wisdom. From my personal experience with Robin, I see her strongest gift as being a way-shower, showing you your way, not hers, and this is enormously liberating. -Burt K, Florida.Robin is a leader and warrior, using her gifts to facilitate healing on a world level. This vision is huge and for her, there are no boundaries and no obstacles, as she knows that all can be healed on any level, from any place. She has compassion, which is underlined by fierceness. She has a unique way of touching people, bringing them together. She creates tribes. She unlocks people's true potential. She has a passion not only to connect and create, but to make a difference to others lives and they to another, creating a ripple. I love how she always offers a mixture of written, audio and visual learning opportunities and makes sure it is assessable on a global scale. When I think of Robin, I imagine worldwide healing from people in small remote villages of India to fast paced stockbrokers in London. -Manni D, Spain
