Robin Finn, MPH, MA, is an award-winning writer, educator, and “narrative alchemist.” She is the founder of Heart. Soul. Pen.®, Heartifacts®, and Hot Writing™—three transformational writing experiences created to help women reclaim their voices, dissolve limiting beliefs, and reconnect to their authentic selves. She is the author of Heart. Soul. Pen.: Find Your Voice on the Page and in Your Life (Morehouse Publishing, 2024) and the novel Restless in L.A. (Inkspell, 2017). Robin is on the faculty of the UCLA Extension Writers’ Program, where she teaches the Women’s Writing Weekend Workshop. Her work consistently bridges creativity, women’s empowerment, and personal transformation.

Robin’s academic and professional training uniquely position her as a guide for transformational writing experiences. She holds a Master’s degree in Public Health from Columbia University with a specialization in women’s health and a Master’s degree in Spiritual Psychology from the University of Santa Monica—an interdisciplinary foundation that informs her mind-body-soul approach to wellness through the written word. This dual training allows her to skillfully support women through profound personal transitions, including midlife, identity evolution, grief and loss, and creative awakening.

Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, Maria Shriver’s Sunday Paper, Mamamia, and other national and international publications. Her humorous, ‘very personal,’ personal essay, “When Our Daughter Walked In On Us,” was one of The New York Times’ Most Read Stories. Based in Los Angeles, Robin is recognized as a trusted voice in women’s empowerment and creative wellness—guiding groups, retreats, and private clients in powerful, transformational experiences designed to inspire clarity, confidence, healing, and lasting self-connection. She is a longtime advocate for children with ADHD and learning differences.
