Presents

The

Essence Captured

Award

To

Robin Gruver

December, 2011

Lori Steed Sortino Owner, Essence Captured

The Essence Captured Award

recognizes any business, person,

organization, or environment who or

which captures the essence of

alignment with their or its purpose.

They or it stand(s) out as a shining

light in a world of diversity as

someone, a collective of someones,

or a whole environment whose

attitude, behavior, energy, actions,

words, and overall whole existence

prove that they have found their

calling, know what they are here to

do, and are doing it, being it, and

loving it. This “award” is recognition,

observation, and witness to the

genius that has been expressed.

Robin is clearly friendly and outgoing

at first meeting. The next thing that

comes through is how much she

loves what she does. The next thing

I noticed is how much of an impact

she makes on the people she works

with. It is my pleasure and honor to

proclaim that Robin has captured the

essence of what many people

besides myself agree is the model

childbirth coach and yoga instructor.

Robin, thank you for being who you

are for and in this Conejo Valley

community.

I owe so much to Robin. She provided me so much support and love through my pregnancy. It is wonderful how she brings mothers to be together. I will have life long friends that I have met through her. In her yoga class I had a sense of community, support, strength, and balance. In her birthing class she gave my husband and I the tools to make the pregnancy and birth of our son what we wanted it to be. She is a good friend. Anne Marie

We cannot express how grateful we are for everything that you have done for us. We are truly honored to have met you. With love, Nathan and Andrea
