MindFULL conversations
MindFULL conversations brings "mindful conversations" to folks seeking practical information for self-awareness, and the ability to see themselves reflected in what inspires them, validates their insights, and normalizes what they're pondering. With actionable tips and useful conversations about career transitions, new ideas about books and the journeys it takes to write them, and creative perspectives that will shift you around life's everyday moments, MindFULL conversations unlocks what's inside of YOU.
This podcast will:
- Inspire you to take action.
- Delight you with new ideas.
- Encourage you to take one step toward your dreams.
- Help you to find new ways of being in the world you hadn’t thought of.
And how does this happen? By releasing something inside of the conversationalist, and the listener, with an engaging question.
For over 30 years, your host, Robin Glickstein, Ed.M., was on the client and agency side of the business and collected 100s of ideas. She spent 25 years hearing 1,000s of personal insights from all kinds of people and learned to hone her questions and unlock insights. With nowhere to put all the ideas that she was having, Robin began The MindFULL Creative, a blog written from noticing how her mind was so FULL of inspirational stories and creative ideas (tips, insights, personal musings and awesome folks doing wonderful work, etc.). She then went on to learn about a podcast that encouraged her to bring her ideas and insights to a new level. Prone to micro-conversations with folks in line for groceries, on planes and almost anywhere she goes, Robin's mind continued to be FULL and thus, MindFULL conversations (lower c) was born.
In this podcast, you will hear conversations with guests who have made the leap to where they are today – and actionable strategies that can help you jump!

From Nest to Next: Using GPS and Faith Maps to Get You Going
Are you at the stage of life when you are pondering, what I like to call, "Nest to Next"? "Nest to Next" is the term I made up for those of us in the stage of life after our kids have grown and moved out. One of my inspirations for this time in my life, and for many others, is Colette, my girlfriend of 20 years. Colette has modeled “moving forward” to me. We met when our daughters were 2. Now they’re 24. We’ve been friends though life changes, house changes and now city changes. A few months ago, Colette and her husband agreed to rent their house for a year. He took a job in another city and she bought a camper van. Outfitted for everyday living, Colette has now made it her mission to drive around the country, help Habitat for Humanity and see what she sees, using GPS and faith maps to lead her where she's needed and show her what she still needs to still learn.
Episode Takeaways:
- Instead of feeling "scared" of new chapters, try reframing the language to "excited". Both fear and excitement hold energy, but excitement propels you forward.
- Be your own cheerleader and chant, "YOU got this"! Remind yourself, you have life experience under your belt.
- Ask your Higher Wisdom, or whatever you call it, for Help. Then listen and pay attention. Chances are good you will see and hear an answer.
