Your Hidden Voice Has The Power | Robin Eaton | Ep 966

From Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong Niiamah Ashong

"I told my own soul to shut up and go sit in the corner and basically I denied myself, my own presence." — Robin

Join Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and Robin Eaton, former federal law enforcement officer turned shaman, spiritual teacher, and guide, for a throwback conversation that goes straight to the root. Robin spent 20 years supervising people coming out of prison, silencing her own gifts to survive a system that had no room for them. What she found on the other side: the voice you shut down to be acceptable is the same one that holds your power. This episode covers the cost of disconnection, the rage that lives just underneath the surface, and what it actually means to sing your song, whether anyone is listening or not. If you've been waiting for the right moment, the right audience, or the right version of yourself, this conversation will challenge you to stop waiting.

Welcome to the Outlier's Edge Podcast, hosted by Niiamah Ashong, Founder of Outlier's Edge and Sherpa of the World of Difference. On this podcast, you'll join other high-performing unconventional leaders and entrepreneurs (aka Outliers) as they talk about leveraging what makes them different to make a difference in the world.
