Robinson’s family discovered that she has Ehlers-Danlos syndrome when, one day, she fractured her elbow while performing a cartwheel. Less than a year later, she fractured her ankle and, the following year, she tore some ligaments in her wrist. The latter took 13 months to heal.

Robinson, a swimmer who wasn’t playing contact sports or risking serious bodily impact on a daily basis, knew something was wrong. Thanks to her mother’s network, before long, Robinson was sitting in a Cornell pediatric geneticist’s office receiving her diagnosis. After the diagnosis, she gave up swimming.
Gigi Robinson is the founder of the creative media company Its Gigi LLC. She also hosts the Spotify Greenroom live audio show Everything You Need Is Within. In addition to these, she has also worked in photography, design, social media, and digital marketing industries.
