Robyn Vie-Carpenter-Brisco 
Board President

In her late 20s, during her 17-year career in NYFW production, Robyn Vie-Carpenter-Brisco became inspired by the healing powers of amber after a chance encounter at a New York City jewelry store. That unexpected meeting led her to see there was something very precious in semi-precious stones. 20+ years and several certifications later, in 2017, this self-proclaimed hippie diva was motivated to write, "Let's Get Stoned - using stones and crystals to create a life that rocks", a book about the power of using the energy of stones and how to consciously integrate them into one’s life daily to create the life that you vision for yourself. As she says, “a life that rocks!”

Robyn is a Licensed Spiritual Practitioner, a certified spiritual life coach, and a Laughter Yoga instructor. She teaches meditation, mindfulness, and spiritual empowerment through finding joy every day.

Robyn has been featured in the New York Times, and her writing has been seen in Outfront Colorado, curvemag.com, Desert Outlook magazine, LA Yoga Magazine, Bustle.com, and The Huffington Post blog.
