Meet Robyn

Mom, writer, entrepreneur, and woman whose cheeks often hurt from smiling so much. Journaling has always been a passion of mine, but Journals of Discovery wasn't created until shortly after the loss of my grandmothers. Their personal items were being passed down to me, and as much as I appreciated the physical reminder of their essence, I yearned for stories and information. I had so many questions and no one knew the answers.

So, as the journal addict I am, I wrote and created my first journal, The Making of a Grandparent. I believed in the power of writing and sharing, and I wanted to ensure others had the chance to better preserve their grandparents stories.

The loss of my grandmothers taught me to value each persons story and legacy, and I now thoroughly enjoy creating journals to share them in.

Who am I beyond an author, entrepreneur, and mama?

• I love a beautiful landscape and enjoy hiking or being on the water with my family.

• I spend my evenings reading, writing, and cuddling up to watch a Netflix episode or two. Okay, three or four.

• I start and end every day with a journal entry, no matter how busy I am.

• I’ve never had a cup of coffee. My energy comes from rest, green juice, and listening to what my mind and body needs each day.

• I'm an introvert through and through.

• I love laying on the beach, and I also love exploring new places. My favourite travel adventure was to Iceland, it was beyond incredible.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know myself, and the mission, of Journals of Discovery. The heart and passion that goes into each and every one of the journals, blog posts or journal prompts is extensive.
