In this Part 2 episode, Robin continues being interviewed by Greg Sowell, host of his own podcast called, “Why Am I?” Greg’s premise behind his “Why Am I?” podcast, is that he likes talking to interesting people and tries to trace a path to where they were to where they find themselves today.

Robin shares with us how she cracked-her-case that had been plaguing ...

Do I even know what I’m passionate about? Who Am I Since Coming Out Late? That is the single most asked ...
