MADE XXXX LIFE

BOOK REVIEW :

ROBIN AYERS

Entrepreneur and author Robin Ayers sat down with MADE Magazine to discuss her journey on writing her most recent novel , Unspoken Languages . We were given the opportunity to speak with Ayers about the novel ’ s background and her goals for the new year .
MADE : Your powerful book Unspoken Languages is rooted in remind people of their power within . How and where did the idea to write this book come about ?
RA : The ideas basically came from how I live my life . I ’ m a huge believer in the fact that we ’ ve all been born with a power . It ’ s a power that we all have - it ’ s the power of belief . But not many people know that they are able to utilize it for their own good . Most people don ’ t understand that your power can either work for you or against you . But what you can do ( and what I hope people get from the book ) is help people understand that you take your belief and intentionally turn it around to use it as force or however you want to live your life . That ’ s what I ’ ve done with my own life . I want to convey it as best as possible and get it out to the masses .
MADE : Which chapter from Unspoken Languages would you say impacted you most as you were writing ?
RA : That ’ s interesting and hard to boil down because I believe they are all powerful . One of my favorite chapters in the book is when I talk about how my brother was killed . It ’ s easy to say all of the good things . It ’ s easy to pinpoint all of the wonderful things that have happened in my life . But what about the challenging times that happened in everyone ’ s lives ? This particular chapter in the book is called “ When the Rain Falls ”. The rain falls in everybody ’ s life - good times and bad times . That was a very challenging chapter . But , there ’ s beauty in it . I ’ m showing people how you can take such a negative thing or event that has happened in your life and turn it around for good - learning something from it and being able to adjust to it so that something good does come from your life . So I think that ’ s one of the most powerful chapters .
MADE : What are some affirmations you speak and exude within yourself as a woman , entrepreneur ?
RA : I affirm everyday that I was built in God ’ s image . So , the things that He is able to do , He also gave me the ability to do . One of the things that I practice or tell anyone who has an ear to listen , that just like God spoke and it was , we have the ability to speak and it is . That ’ s something I reaffirm to myself . I walk in favor - all things are working in my favor for the good , all the time - even when it looks like it or not . Those are some of the things I tell myself as a woman . I ’ m an entrepreneur , wife , and I ’ m a mom .
