In this intimate, salon-style experience, likeminded heroines gather to connect with ourselves and each other through literature. Each stop is a pop-up empowerment party in a cosy and inspiring setting, a space for conversation about what most excites us. I can bring a Heroine Training tea party to your event, and tailor a questionnaire to themes at your request.
I have hosted Heroine Training Tea Parties in many cities across the U.K. and U.S. Partnerships include Kate Spade, Waterstones, Tucson Botanical Gardens, and many independent cafes.
My signature masterclass on seeking mini adventures, and living like a protagonist in your daily life. I can adjust this talk to your needs, and include more interactive segments to transform it into a workshop.
Mini Adventures are personal, and unique to the individual. I will help you find a way to fit mini adventuring into your daily routine, whatever obstacles may be in your way. I specialise in making daily life more magical, and with a little inspiration from fictional worlds. I offer complimentary 15-minute chats online (Read more here). I also do Mini Adventure Mappings in person. In 2019 I gave 25 consultations over a weekend conference, the Granger Leadership Academy.

“Basically, Robinson-Burns is a motivational speaker — but she’s genuine and passionate and kind of nervously nerdy about her job. As a result, she was subtle yet effective in inspiring our small tea party group to root for ourselves like we’re the protagonists in our own awesome novels.” – Beth Spotswood

She teaches women to own their stories, and to care for themselves as much as they do for characters in literature. Specialising in making daily life magical, Xandra teaches personal development in her Everyday Wonderland accountability club, and by hosting Heroine Training Tea Parties across the globe.
A Bostonian, Xandra followed her dream across the pond for an undergraduate degree in English at the University of Oxford. She now lives in Edinburgh, Scotland.
