Episode 114: Truth is Your Medicine with Janne Robinson

Truth is Your Medicine: A Conversation with Janne Robinson on Vulnerability, Power, and Living Authentically

In episode 114 of Healthy As A Mother, we dive into a raw and soul-stirring conversation with poet, author, and truth-telling coach Janne Robinson. Known for her unfiltered writing and spoken word poetry, Janne brings her signature honesty and depth to this vulnerable dialogue on what it means to live your truth—and why doing so can be the most healing medicine of all.

This episode is a powerful reminder that healing isn’t just about protocols and supplements—it’s also about radical self-honesty, emotional liberation, and stepping into the deepest parts of who we are.

The Healing Power of Truth

Janne opens up about her personal journey—how her own pain, grief, and emotional unraveling led her to discover her life’s mission: truth. Not just speaking it, but living it, even when it's messy, imperfect, and uncomfortable.

She explains how truth has become her passion, and how helping others uncover and speak theirs has become her most sacred work. Whether it’s through poetry, group work, or 1:1 coaching, Janne helps people return to themselves by peeling back the layers of conditioning, shame, and suppression that keep them small.

“Truth is medicine. Not just for you—but for everyone who witnesses you owning it.” — Janne Robinson

 

Why We Hide—and What Happens When We Stop

In our conversation, we explore the many reasons people hide from their truth: fear of rejection, desire to keep the peace, childhood survival patterns, and the deep societal conditioning that tells us to be quiet, nice, and agreeable. Janne reminds us that the cost of silence is far greater than the risk of honesty.

This episode is for anyone who feels like they’ve lost themselves. For the mother who's forgotten what she wants. For the woman who knows there's more to her story, but doesn’t know where to begin. And for the listener who's ready to stop performing and start belonging—to herself.

Living Honestly in Motherhood

Although this episode isn’t exclusively about motherhood, it speaks deeply to the inner work that so often surfaces when we become mothers. Janne’s story and teachings are a beacon for women who are navigating their own rebirth while raising children.

Motherhood has a way of cracking us open—and this conversation will give you the courage to walk through those cracks into something more real, more grounded, and more you.

If you’ve ever felt like you're not living fully as yourself—or you're craving the permission to stop performing—this is your episode.
