Ready to live at the higher vibrations where peace, love, joy, and good health are the daily standard.

That's what this show is all about.

Welcome to Vibe.

And here's your host, Robin Openshaw.

My apology to everyone, my 20 years of living out loud. Hi everyone. Welcome back. I'm the green smoothie

girl online since 2006. For nearly 20 years, I've been showing up in your inbox, on your screens,

and in your earbuds. When I started Green Smoothie Girl, I didn't have a grandmaster plan to become a

public figure. I was just a mom who had found a better way to live,

got well after I'd been very sick for four years, and wanted to share it. I didn't know the

word influencer, and I'm not sure I knew what a blog was, but here we are, two decades later.

And one thing I've learned is that when you live your life out loud for 20 years, you leave a

very long trail of words behind you.

Today's episode is a little different. It's not about nutrition and it's not about detoxing.

It's not about medical freedom or Bitcoin or anything I think about political issues related to our health

or what's going on in this crazy world. It's about something much more human, the weight of our

words, the importance of context, and a sincere apology I feel I owe to some of you and to people

in my personal life. I ask myself, who might I offend? For 20 years before I hit publish on a blog post

or upload on a video, I have asked myself the same questions.

Who might I offend here? How can I avoid that? In writing 17 books and thousands of podcast episodes

and blog posts and social media posts, I reference my life experience. It's the main thing I have.

It's more important to me and has taught me more than all the PubMed research studies and books I've read and degrees I've gotten. There are, of course, other real people all around me in my life experience. I take those two questions very seriously because it is deeply important to me to never be unkind. Now, I'll be honest, if there's a product out there that I think is harming people or a so-called health food that's actually loaded with toxins,

I'm going to speak up. I'll be bold, and I might ruffle some feathers in the industry,
