The Poetry of Gender

Life is a Festival #126: Janne Robinson

 

Here’s to the women who don’t give a fuck! But should we give a fuck about gender at all? Today on Life is a Festival we meet feminist beat poet and author Janne Robinson, to discuss authenticity, gender, and her no bullshit approach to creating the life you want. 

On the show Janne shares how she learned not to give a fuck and to create a life and thriving business as a poet and coach. We discuss staying authentic and truly vulnerable while building a brand out of your art and healing. We get into a meaty conversation about gender polarity and language. Finally we discuss how to integrate our utopian visions into our daily lives. 

Janne Robinson is a feminist poet, entrepreneur, speaker, and surfer. She is the author of two books of poetry, “This Is For The Women Who Don’t Give a Fuck,” and “There's Cobwebs on Her Vagina.” Janne is also a personal development coach and is available for one-on-one mentoring. 

Some Buddhists say we are 33 parts masculine and 33 parts feminine, well Janne is 100% badass. Enjoy.
