Answering the Call to Climb with James Robbins

What if the part of you that feels restless, uncertain, or ready for more isn’t a problem to fix - but a calling from your soul inviting you higher? In this week’s episode, Ashley sits down with James Robbins, leadership strategist, keynote speaker, and bestselling author of The Call to Climb. Raised on a small cattle ranch in the foothills of the Rockies, James grew up quiet, observant, and deeply connected to the natural world - but it wasn’t until adulthood, after seasons of burnout, spiritual restlessness, and profound inner questioning, that he began to understand the deeper call tugging at his soul.  James spent years serving in ministry, helping people while secretly wrestling with the growing sense that something in his own life was misaligned. That quiet inner discomfort became the beginning of his awakening - what he now calls “the summons of the soul,” the moment when life begins nudging you toward the path you were actually meant to walk. In this conversation, James shares how saying yes to the climb, both spiritually and physically, transformed his understanding of purpose, intuition, courage, and the fears that hold so many of us back. This inspiring dialogue offers a fresh lens on how to listen for the signs that your soul is speaking, how to honor the life you’re meant for, and why every mountain, internal or external, exists to help you rise. Tune in to Episode 295 of Uncover Your Magic to explore the deeper journey of becoming who you were always meant to be. You’ll hear about the moment James recognized he was living someone else’s version of his life, what it really means to “slay your dragons,” and how to discern the difference between ego’s voice and the quiet truth of intuition. Plus, James reveals why you must learn to create your own inner weather, and how this simple shift makes every climb possible. May this episode remind you that your soul is always guiding you, and that every nudge, whisper, and spark is an invitation to rise into your highest, most aligned self.
