In this powerful episode of Confessions at the Cabana, host Zoe Scott sits down with Robin Brown — artist, fashion designer, author, clown, and founder of Magnolia Pearl — for a deeply moving conversation about forgiveness, creativity, and transformation.

Robin shares her extraordinary life story, shaped by a childhood marked by addiction, mental illness, and profound trauma. Raised by parents who struggled with drug addiction, and surviving an attempted act of violence by her mother, Robin chose a path rarely spoken about with such honesty: radical forgiveness. Rather than living in hatred, she speaks openly about love, compassion, and the freedom that comes from releasing resentment.

At the heart of this episode is Robin’s ability to alchemize darkness into light. Through her work in fashion, art, storytelling, and the sacred art of clowning, she reveals how creativity became both refuge and medicine — a way to transform pain into beauty and suffering into meaning. Her work with Magnolia Pearl reflects this philosophy, weaving imperfection, tenderness, and soul into every piece.

This conversation is inspired by Robin’s autobiographical book, Glitter Saints, a raw and poetic memoir that explores survival, grace, and the power of imagination as a healing force.

This episode of Confessions at the Cabana is a soulful exploration of forgiveness, resilience, and the courage to live with an open heart. It’s a must-listen for those interested in art and fashion as healing, personal transformation, trauma recovery, and stories that remind us light can emerge from even the darkest places.

Confessions of a Hollywood Therapist How to Manifest What You Want in 2026

People often say, “You have to go see Johnny O.” But the better question is: why does his work actually work?

In this episode of Confessions at the Cabana, host Zoe Scott sits down with Johnny O’Callaghan, founder of The Healing Bar Studio in the Hollywood Hills, to explore what it really takes to heal, move forward, and manifest what you want — especially as we step into 2026.

Johnny’s work lives at the intersection of psychology, spirituality, and lived experience. He doesn’t lead with labels or diagnoses — he leads with results. As he puts it, he works on both “the goal line and the soul line,” helping people heal what’s underneath so life can finally move forward.

After personally experiencing nearly every healing modality available, and becoming a father through adoption in Uganda, Johnny returned to school and earned a master’s degree in psychology with a specialization in spirituality. 

At The Healing Bar, Johnny works with high-performing clients — including those in Hollywood — who feel stuck, disconnected, or off their path, even when they “have it all.” His approach integrates: Psychotherapy modalities Mindfulness and spiritual psychology Hypnosis and breathwork Coaching and somatic awareness.

In this conversation, Johnny shares practical tools he uses with his Hollywood clients to  manifest from an aligned, grounded place — not survival mode.

If you’ve been vision-boarding, setting intentions, and “doing the work” but still feel stuck, this episode may reveal what’s been missing. 

For the Christmas episode and season one finale of Confessions at the Cabana, the mic turns toward the woman who started it all — Zoe Scott.

Interviewed by neighbor and friend WSL surf commentator Strider Wasilewski, Zoe opens up about her extraordinary journey: growing up in London, singing rock ’n’ roll in Hollywood for 13 years, living in desert caves, following the path of Jim Morrison, and somehow landing exactly where she was meant to be — Malibu.

This is a story about freedom, curiosity, reinvention, and trusting the road, even when it looks a little wild. Honest, funny, reflective, and full of heart, it’s the perfect way to close out our first season.
