Helping awesome, amazing 

midlife women in transition

​and step into their divine flow
Hi! I'm Robin Rainbow Gate
Wellness Coach, Intentional Living Guide,
and Author of Calling Myself Home
The backstory
At the age of 43, I was diagnosed with low thyroid function. I was working full-time, while also having a side business, and on top of that pushing myself to the limit in my spiritual work and community. But I was exhausted, over-worked.

My life was set of hanging scales. One side was my job; I worked all the time to have the money to do the things and have the things I was "supposed" to do and have. But then I didn't have the time or energy to do or enjoy the things I had worked so hard and so many hours for. This side of the scale weighed heavily on my heart and soul.
I began to entertain the idea that I was just a flower wilting into middle age.
I considered that I was being carried along toward my own death, that this was part of the natural cycle and winding down of life.

Accepting this notion of living a life in connection with myself and the Divine was relieving and calming. 

I knew in my heart that I had to make a sustainable change.


But then the masculine Do-er part of me kicked in and said, "Naaaaah! We have to keep doing, pushing, being successful! Otherwise we won't be worthwhile,"  and I shoved my feminine intuition to live in a more connected way, aside.
Maybe you're shoving it down too? This feeling of wanting to live a slow, balanced, harmonious life?
I was too.

And even though I pushed and pushed and pushed it down, the feeling of constant dread in my heart didn't go away.
And between job demands or a late-in-life career move you can not put off any longer, (maybe moving into a caregiver role to older or younger family members or a spouse), + a pandemic + political uncertainty, and alongside that, a burning desire to live a heart-felt, true and simple life...

...it just feels impossible, 
but there you are craving a simple, soulful, intentional life.

​Connected to the Earth. Connected to YOU.
The pressure, strain, terror of regret and unlived desires, felt like a stake pressing against my heart, threatening to pierce and puncture my "secure" (and according to masculine society's ideals, a nearly "perfect") life.

But you know what scared me more? The fear of dying not having lived my dreams and followed my heart.
Then the scale tipped. One day, I was expected to stretch and expand one too many times.
I could NOT continue in this way any longer. I could die doing what I didn't want to do or die doing what I wanted to do.

So I chose the other side of the hanging scale. The side with my desires, passions, and the utter unwillingness to die without having followed my heart.
When I made this decision, the fear of letting go of the illusion of financial security lost its hold on me.
And I jumped, trusting completely that the Universe would care for me.

I made my move. Literally! I took myself out of my protective (yet restrictive) bubble and followed my soul's calling to a little town in Mexico. I gave myself the gift of time and in return I stepped fully into a fulfilling live beyond my dreams.

I kept (and continue to) question something so important: What if what was valued highly and trusted as a path - even if the way wasn't already pre-paved as in the path of university, job, corporate mobility, accumulating THINGS - what if I could give up that masculine paradigm of a successful life?

And what if I could listen within and see what I, me, myself loved, what I wanted to do, what I love to do... and do it?


Your questioning may not involve moving to another country (or maybe it does?). But I bet you are feeling the push to unearth and uproot the old long-held beliefs and ways that no longer serve you.
And I'm here to tell you:
​
​It's your turn to make the impossible your reality.

To call yourself home. 
If my story resonates with you, you are in the right place

And I am here to help you remember, find, connect with, commit to, nourish and trust what

really makes you happy
& to build your abundantly simple, beautiful, alive, life – as you deem it.



Because it’s time, you can, and if not now, when?

My clients come to me over-extended, disconnected, overwhelmed, without balance. They feel like they have lost their sense of self for taking care of everyone and everything, doing too much for "success" and "shoulds" and the lies we tell ourselves about not good enoughness.

They come not knowing how to eat for themselves, aware that something is missing and not working but not knowing how to get a handle on it all.

…lives out of balance.

We work together to
bring them back into their power, through aligned simple living lifestyle choices, profound self-connection, self-honoring and self-care.


Sometimes the simplest steps are the hardest to take. And just because something is simple and aligned with your values and intentions does not mean it will always be easy. But I'm here, as your champion and guide, to help you love yourself towards your breathtakingly unique and amazing best you.

You may meet resistance on the path that
you KNOW in your heart is THE WAY

And time, yes it can feel like time is ticking, especially at midlife. But that TIME can also bring you to your potential, give you the impetus to do something soul satisfying and exciting, a new venture.

Time can bring you to a place where you are ready to feel FREE and CENTERED with complete enjoyment and satisfaction.

The place where you are in your sacred inner sanctum, filled with golden light, feeling calm and contentment. Replete with simple pleasures, friends, peace, beauty, perhaps a new place. Life on your own terms, doing what you love with gratitude.


Life is calling and inviting you step into that golden light, now. It's all here for you. Will you grab it?
It's your turn to take good care of this one, precious you!
