Meet Robin Thomas

Robin, I was a tomboy too!  I believe we're about the same age and in the early 1960s there was a popular haircut call the "Pixie".  I had one, but it was given by my mother (who sometimes didn't get the bangs straight so then tried to even them up and .... you know where THAT ends up!), but since I had so many ticks get on and in me one summer, they called it the 'Ticksie'.  

I'm happy your marriage has been so long and successful; I got married about the same timeframe and I've had a very different path.  So I find it really interesting and wonderful two people can have such similarities and differences and then have something bring us together, such as Lumigrate, to 'synergize' the thing we mostly overlap on, which is health and how we go about maintaining or achieving/recapturing it, which as you say is 'holistic'.

I'd like to thank you for keeping up with who the team is here at Lumigrate -- "The Grate Group" as someone named them in our formative year.  We are continuing to build a robust team of people in all disciplines and create a virtual 'integrative medicine center'.  

I'm so pleased to have you as part of things on Lumigrate, Robin, with your focus on nutrition and supplementation in a holistic manner with your standards for quality and science.  And as everyone who hears you speak will know, your connection to the mind/spirit is what makes you uniquely Robin! And your sense of humor and joy of life, I find it exudes through the phone line! 

I hope people will take advantage of your offer to get in touch with you, as you're in this for the people to take the lead on what they do or don't do and you're just a fabulously knowledgeable resource.  I know that's not best English but I wanted to say it that way! I've suggested people call you just to say 'hi, I liked what you wrote about ...." and see where it goes from there. Everyone is thankful for my suggesting you and I appreciate that. 

Thank you for providing this piece about yourself here, so that I can direct people to it when I am providing resources to people during individual consultations and then, naturally, for people who find Lumigrate and want to know who's who and what's what! ~~ Mardy 

  Thanks, Mardy!! 

 .. and want them to think Robin's from so far back she's not still actively involved. She actually helped someone I suggested contact her just in the last months and I'm pleased to say that I thought to check on them and they'd been really pleased. She started out with the basics and let them just see how that went and then added on things the next month that were REALLY starting to make changes in one of this person's primary "complaints"/ issues. 

It is so rewarding when I learn of someone who has gotten postive benefits from their being a YOUser of Lumigrate's information, when they become proactive and follow through after learning and deciding what is right for them. Naturally, we didn't get a bio on every expert at Lumigrate, so I do want to say that when I talk with people I make sure they know that we also provide other information about supplements and nutrition from a retail natural wellness pharmacy that ships to all 50 states and beyond (or they did in 2010-12 when they were 'active' with Lumigrate). And Robin and Gary and/or Allen from ITC engaged in some really great conversations on some topics together, and really showed what collaboration can be about. Putting the information out there and trusting the consumer will figure out which route is best for them under what circumstances.

I gained enormously from switching for that time period to using them for my personal advisors and suggest to people that they look at if they might be able to get a different perspective from a different provider. If you're pleased enough with whatever your current supplement regimen is, consider giving the resources we have at Lumigrate a 'call' (or email, however they guide you to contact)(or you can often find them on Facebook too, naturally, but not always and is not as secure for medical information as other routes, learn about all that stuff about mining and who's reading what where, naturally). 

I cannot more highly recommend Robin. She is super 'non pushy', she really leaves it up to you. Once someone got to chit chatting with her about things they had in common and then they were out of time and never really got to talking about supplements.... this is  someone I'd suggested call her, and she just figured 'she knows what I do, she can call me back'. And I'd really felt that this person was missing the boat on her supplements -- had too many things and maybe not a good overall for her needs, was missing some key things that I knew Robin would catch. She's been doing this a long time -- she made silver with USANA in 2013, by the way, so she's put in her time and I hope it is rewarding her with income commensurate with her work and abilities, and I know she's have a great time doing it as I see her dynamic Facebook posts! 

Live and Learn. Learn and Live Better! ~ Mardy (MY goodness, I had not even come up with my 'sign off phrase' when we created this thread! Glad I dusted it off and bumped it today. (As I send the link to someone to have them 'meet Robin Thomas' and then usher them to info about other things related to what can cause or help resolve / reverse joint pain.
