About Me

Robin’s Story

I have lived free from anxiety since January 2005. This will, without a doubt, forever be a Red-letter day in my book as for the better part of 8 years my life was filled with anxiousness.

I could have dealt with this demon ages ago, but I did not have the self-knowledge or tools to do so.

This story began in 1996 when I was the project manager for a company while at the same time running my own business. I worked long hours to juggle work, my own business, and my family. It was evident that something had to give. And as the universe would have it, everything collapsed almost at once.

The first to give in was my health. My arms and legs got so weak that I could not get up a flight of stairs or climb a ladder. Eventually, I could not even stand up. A visit to the neurologist confirmed it to be a nervous condition with no real cause or treatment. Stress less, was the only advice. I took a conscious decision to not stress and a year later, with the help of high doses of cortisone, I was mobile again. However, the tingling in my legs and the constant anxiety remained…

Robin’s Story

I have lived free from anxiety since January 2005. This will, without a doubt, forever be a Red-letter day in my book as for the better part of 8 years my life was filled with anxiousness.

This story began in 1996 when I was the project manager for a company while at the same time running my own business. I worked long hours to juggle work, my own business, and my family.

I took a conscious decision to not stress and a year later, with the help of high doses of cortisone, I was mobile again. However, the tingling in my legs and the constant anxiety remained…

 

The next to go was my permanent job. I got retrenched. And even though I now had the time to focus all my energy on building my business, the worries about making enough money to look after my wife and two children turned me into an unpleasant person, to say the least. I became highly critical, unapproachable, more anxious and depressed. My family and staff had to walk on eggshells in my presence or else…

By the time my wife and I finally divorced, I had pushed everyone away. I was lonely and unhappy.

To ‘stress less’, I automated my business so that I could travel the world. I believed that planning holidays away would be the cure for my unhappiness. I went to Mexico to visit my father, whom I have not seen or spoken to in 20 years. I kitesurfed in Greece, Mexico and South Africa, cycled through Germany and walked the Camino de Santiago through Spain, but found that one’s shadow never leaves you.

And I returned to an empty house every single time.

That is when I finally realised that I had to look within. I discovered the work of Dr John Demartini in 2013, and attended a number of his Breakthrough Experience® workshops and dealt with all my stuff.

My perspective, my attitude and my life changed. I healed my relationships with my family and my staff.  And my anxiety disappeared as if by magic.

Today I live an authentic life. I nurture and value relationships. I understand the need for balance. I manage my anxiety without medication. And I help others to live a first-class life.
