Meet Robin

Robin Conrad Sturm has an enthusiastic joy and passion for reaching children.  She is a Certified Children’s Life Coach, trained and certified with Kid’s Life Studio.  She is the recipient of Prince William Living’s Five Most Influential Women Award of 2020, and InsideNova’s Best of Prince William Award as Best Author of 2018. Robin has written a series of children’s books that encourage children dealing with varying emotions, including anxiety. She is determined to use every avenue and tool possible to teach children the necessary skills to create positive mental well-being, to face their challenges with resilience and to feel motivated,  inspired and confident. Watching students’ faces light up with each new achievement and helping them grow into confident, goal-oriented adults are amazing highlights.

In her spare time, Robin loves to saturate her mind with extra training opportunities and resources to bring children the best care possible. She lives in Northern Virginia and has three grown children living their busy lives in Virginia, California, and New York City. Thank God for Facetime!

Currently as a preschool teacher and a coach, Robin continues to care deeply about children, and loves learning about their unique and developing minds. As a young adult, Robin would substitute teach for dance classes, because her love and ability for working with younger children was evident to her school faculty.  Pursuing her love for dance, Robin graduated from The Academy of the Washington Ballet and became a professional ballet dancer with The Washington Ballet and the Asaph Dance Ensemble. She then taught young children and teens at her own dance studio, which she founded and ran with her husband for 35  years.
