The First Steps to Reducing Your Anxiety with author Mel Robbins

A Bit of Optimism

14-01-2025 • 54 mins

Life can feel overwhelming, especially when we're too drained to even get out of bed. So, how do we push through those days?

For Mel Robbins, facing this very question turned her life around. Struggling with $800,000 in debt and at rock bottom, she became obsessed with finding practical ways to regain control. Fast-forward to today, and Mel is a bestselling author and podcast host who has helped millions transform their lives. In her latest book, The Let Them Theory, she reveals how shedding the weight of others' expectations can help us live more authentically.

I sat down with Mel to dive into how we can take action when we're emotionally spent, why our need for control ties us to other people's opinions, and how giving others the freedom to be themselves allows us to align with our true values.

This…is A Bit of Optimism.
