That’s why she’s in a category all her own. As one of the most widely booked and followed podcast hosts and authors in the world, she’s sought after by the world’s leading brands and medical professionals for her research-backed tools and motivation. At the same time, Mel has amassed millions of followers online, with her advice going viral online almost daily.
A New York Times bestselling author and self-publishing phenom, Mel’s work includes The High 5 Habit, The 5 Second Rule, and the #1 ranking The Mel Robbins Podcast.
Her female-led media company produces provocative, life-changing content, with millions of books sold, billions of video views, six #1 audiobooks, and one of the most viewed TEDx Talks in the world.
Her work has been translated into 41 languages and has changed the lives of millions of people worldwide. And despite all this, Mel is one of the most down-to-earth and caring people you’ll ever meet—because it was out of necessity that she discovered the tools and research that transformed her life and got her to where she is today.
Mel lives in New England with her husband of 26 years and their three kids, but she is and will always be a Midwesterner at heart.

Life Changing!!!!

it's a very "in your face" approach which is totally "my cup of tea"
Definitely help me unlock my fears and start doing something about it.
And YES!!!! My life will never be the same after this book!! It's very lame and cliched thing to say, however it does say it wall.
100% Recomend.
Do recomend to give yourself a bit of time between each chapters, especially if you're doing the pdf coach session as well; it's very wise to give yourself a bit of time to process all before moving to the next chapter.
Some chapters will be more painful and hard to go through, however those are the one that will help you the most.

Empowered

This book will empower you to change your life for good, it will provide you with real life cases to provide you incite and draw comparisons of previous patterns in your current life from these cases, this in itself with the analysis that Mel carries out with cross-examinations is an exceptional and holistic view to draw change and transformation for a happier and fulfilled life.

Amazing book!

I discovered Mel Robbins on Instagram & instantly became a fan of her IG videos with her tips for life & how she included her family in the videos. After watching one of Mel's TED Talks, I decided to download this Audible book & Mel didn't disappoint. Firstly, I love Mel's witty, no-nonsense, straight-talking approach but also with genuine compassion & a desire to help others. The different coaching sessions are really good to hear as there are takeaways in each case but the end goal is the same ... to face fear & take control of it. I'll definitely be downloading all Mel's other books & I've already started applying her advice into my life & gaining more control over my fears.

loved it!

Loved listening to Mel and her coaching sessions. I learned a lot about myself and found similiar patterns of fear in myself when listening to the different coaching sessions.
some great aha moments for the people being coached. It was nice listening to peoples stories, being vulnerable and sharing their fears and thinking of ways to change their habit towards fear.

A great listen- now go act!

Really like the way Mel talks and doesn’t try to bombard you with stuff you don’t need. Great stories to relate to and great take aways- hard to remember everything!

Amazing

Self help books are often damaging because the author/idol explains how they have made it and how you can too if you just did xyz. Missing the fact that we need to come from a place of self love/respect first.
Mel Robbins brilliantly uses real life examples to explain how we are triggered by fear and how recognising that fear can help us control it and create a new path which is present and positive.
I bought it out of curiosity, not because I was looking for answers but when I listened I recognised a part of myself in the stories. I loved it and will take away so much from it. Thanks Mel.

No BS tolerated

Loved this, although it triggered some major physical and emotional reactions. Mel has a direct, no nonsense approach and it works for me. Sound advice that is unpacked and explained clearly. Listening to real life individuals sharing their coaching sessions has a far greater impact than simply reading about them. Strongly recommend.

life changing

this book has made me open my mind, truly, and think. to look back on the small moments in life that have made a huge impact, and shaped the way I live my life and where I am today.
Mel, thank you for showing me how to unpack and unravel these thoughts and behaviours and see how I can take a different, healthier path for the next chapter of my life.
