An ex-game animator shares his healing journey from survival-mode to soulful service through self-leadership In this week's Episode, Robin Tamura shares his personal journey how he went from being a game design animator stuck in survival mode to a self-leadership coach using Internal Family Systems (IFS) and mindfulness practices to help others find healing through presence. We talked about burnout, hyperthyroidism, and deep existential questioning - and how those moments led Robin to drop the masks, explore therapy, spiritual inquiry and shift into a purpose-led life. Robin shares powerful insights on why many of us live disconnected from our true selves, and how reconnecting with that quiet inner presence can spark both individual and social regeneration. We explored what self-leadership means, why many societal systems are trauma-based, and how healing ourselves can heal the collective. If you're navigating identity shifts or feeling stuck in roles that no longer fit, this episode will land deep and give you some concrete ideas how to take a step back and work with your "inner voices" to move forward with more peace and balance. 💡 HIGHLIGHTS of this Episode ✨ Robin's transformation from video game animator to self-leadership coach ✨ What the #IFS (Internal Family Systems) model reveals about our inner voices ✨ Why personal healing is essential for collective #regeneration ✨ When burnout is your soul's most honest feedback ✨ Spirituality as a radical act of self-acceptance ✨ Why much of society might just be a well-dressed trauma response 👋 ABOUT Robin (him/he) Robin Tamura is a holistic self-leadership coach who has been working with Internal Family Systems (IFS) since 2020, helping clients connect with their innermost truth and find courage, clarity, and confidence.
