Mel Robbins is one of my favourite speakers, I love her books including the more recent one ‘The High Five Habit’ she is brilliant she keeps it real , honest and vulnerable as does Steven so this interview is just a match made in heaven, one of his best interviews in my humble opinion!

I owe my confidence to you mel, I am a chronic procrastinator, in my 37 years of life always strugged with punctuality, discipline, waking up late kept hitting the snooze button 10 times. I hated myself, played the victim game but also wanted to have big in life, big dreams, but never really mustered the courage to pursue them. I never even shared my dreams with anyone coz always felt people are gonna laugh at me. People always thought and I think they still do that I am a fool, can't do even a small work without messing up and I believe d them that yes I really can't. Today after listening you I realized I also went through sexual and physical abuse in my childhood days. Which my nervous system has recorded . My parents also never took pride in me because they thought I am not pretty and smart enough. Rather they always pulled me down, discouraged and ignored and embarrassed me even in front of other people and I never raised my voice against it coz I thought this is what i deserve. I was ashamed of myself in so many ways. Even I was good at so many things I never really valued myself and always focused on what I didn't have. People always made fun of me, and always always always mistreated me made me feel small good for nothing and I didn't even realize d it because it normal for me. At times when I even felt bad didn't talk back because I was really scared of people that they will start scolding me in front of others which will add to my misery. After going through crores and lakhs of self help videos I watched yours and I finally got my answer which I searched for 37 years. I always knew thers something in me which needs to be addressed and corrected my overthinlinh, time management etc but didn't understand what was the reason behind. But today I understood there's nothing physical thing stopping me, but my thoughts. I am capable of so many things but because of my past experiences . I think I can't do anything right. Till now I had this false belief that I can't do the dishes every night before going to bed and also clean the kitchen every night. But after watching you u have been doing this since 15 days consistently Thank you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Loneliness is a psychological signal for connection, just as hunger is a physiological signal for nutrition. I loved this episode! ♥

[@vapeking466]

Loneliness also takes a toll on health. It may take a while but it definitely shortens ones life. I thought I was lonely just being single for yrs after my son's mom left me out of the blue but once my parents both died within a yr after loosing grandma a yr before that's when it got real. I'm an introvert so enjoy alone time but not all of it. I do have a son but only see him every couple weeks due to visitation rights. He will be 18 soon and plans to go to college in another state. The thing I miss the most is touch as that's how I feel love. I have improved myself all these years and tried the online dating thing. It's not what it was in the beginning. I've made no progress but I remember yrs ago when online dating was new it was very easy to find a date. I'm not sure why it's changed for the worst but for society I don't think it's good. I read an article the other day saying we have a mental health crisis coming and a loneliness one as well. They said it would be a few yrs but is fast approaching. God help us! 🙏

Notes and quotes from this podcast: "Anyone is capable of achieving anything if they put their mind to" "The bigger the problem, the smaller the solutions are. The bigger the dream, the smaller the actions that you need to start taking. " " The window of hesitation defines your whole life, it is about 5 seconds long and that is where anxiety, hesitation and imposter syndrome live" " No Human being is born hating themself, we are wired for love and connection" " Being excited and being nervous are the exact same feeling, but the only difference is what your brain is thinking is happening" " Understanding what is the trigger for the bad feeling is what will help you prevent it" " Your brain learns pattern, which is where you should focus in fixing your patterns"

This is one of the best. Thank you! I started the high five this morning. I've started it at least 10 times over the last year and never followed through because I didn't feel anything. Today I felt something. Many important parts of this interview flashed through my mind. And when I finished my high five, I stood staring in the mirror. I saw that my handprint was very clearly there. I apologised to myself, for not being there for me. I was massaging my sore hands as I stood there. I looked down at my hands in the mirror and realized that this is another self affirming action. Soothing and comforting my joints that have gotten me through so much. Seeing that in the mirror really did something for me. It hit home. I was the observer. Observing that person over there, showing themself kindness and working to bring relief. High five is not the only thing that we can do in the mirror. What else? Suggestions?

THIS is an amazing episode. During the pandemic I started on a path of finally dealing with and understanding the anxiety I live with and started on massive healing journey. Out of a breakup, getting into a relationship, cleaning up an existing relationship, and being put in a situation that paralleled my teenage experience with a twist, I was able to connect the dots on some of my behaviour which was tied to trauma responses. With the love and support of those around me I went through a massive change to move away from self sabotage, to stop disrespecting myself, to saying no to toxic relationships and dynamics, to saying, “I’m done with this anxiety” and “I’m done with feeling this way”. Mel, your openness and candidness is amazing. Thank you for this, thank you for showing and sharing this part of you. Steven and Mel, thank you for this episode. I’m checking out the second episode right now too.

This was such an awesome conversation and I am aware that it should not stop here, I need to take action and take responsibility for my life for the things that I want to figure out and improve on and that will get me results.

[@dzihanahajdarpasicmisirlic5347]

I love Mel.. .Such a down to earth person, despite such a success... humble and loving

[@reedygypandme]

Indeed a beautiful soul

[@absta100]

being excited instead of nervous is so true. Life is all about your mindset. 🙏🏻

[@rachealpike7986]

Honestly one of the best podcasts I've ever watched!! From one that's healing from anxiety.. I wish everyone the courage to keep going we've got this XXX

[@moniquemitchell7326]

Think you are right, Steven. Theres some gold in this podcast. I love how Mel said shes one of us, thats why people relate to her so well. Fantastic discussion, brillant questions, super raw & real. Wow 🎉

[@Missy-nw6ik]

We use the five second rule to get kids at school to respond to an instruction. We’ve done it for years. It was crazy to realize that I need to use it on myself!!!! Mind blowing. So simple, but so profound.

[@lisamarie4564]

I’m so grateful for these interviews and this channel. I lost my partner this year. We have a child together. This channel and these videos have really helped me when Iv been at my lowest points. I was so shocked by his death and when I lost him, I also lost my whole future and plans. These talks and interviews have really helped me. Thank you ❤ xxx

[@jordanmcgetchin6468]

Man I love these interviews, it’s comforting to here Mel talk about her life and how genuinely genius and curious she is at unraveling the human condition and all the amazing phases we go through from stages of innocence and love to moments of chaos that we simply don’t know how to handle and how we develop a sympathetic nervous system beast and only by learning how to control our nerves, and develop a parasympathetic system of being a calm peaceful tranquil being and allowing your body to come down from that place of heightened awareness and protective flight mode and that by talking about our lives we can almost see a reflective mirror of what’s safe but to overcome that barrier by love and accepting yourself for your base state like how we all were on the first day of elementary school to learning how to unlearn bad habits and dance in the dark and laugh through uncomfortablility even if to just make an exit but those that are maybe desensitized or live with a extremest stoic approach is to find comfort in the uncomfortability so as to know you can make it through anything. And it’s by being on a knowing and faithful frequency that sets your spirit free and losing your mind becomes freeing and in a way transformative and consciousness expanding. you should never go full retard but think for yourselves I love you all peace and prosperity to all you beautiful crazies

[@micksumo]

17 minutes in and I can already tell this is gonna be amazing.... what an insightful woman. Listening to Mel in 23 this sums up where I am and where I imagine loads of people are....

[@melbecause1103]

I am so glad I caught this one. At 67 I have been living in Flight my entire life. I am so happy I know this is what my anxiety has been doing to me the whole time. Mel thank you and bless you.

[@zandilegumede7057]

This is such a powerful conversation. I had a traumatic childhood and have lived in fear for 26 years, none of it was my fault, hearing this is so healing.

[@davidlakhter]

so three habits mentioned so far were: -trick your brain when you're nervous to be excited -the five-second rule -the high five habit -mantras/manifesting don't work unless their unique and tailored

[@Mdubstew]

Loved the episode. At the tail end, she said she partook in guided MDMA ceremonies. As a personal connoisseur and advocate of psychedelics, so much of what Mel pushes (her healing) is a byproduct of those MDMA sessions. I can say with confidence so much of my healing is attributed to MDMA and other psychedelics, and that’s the shortcut ticket to the self love she preaches. To be fully okay with who you are and to accept yourself is the greatest gifts psychedelics have given me. I wish she spoke more on this!!! Love you Mel.

[@lornasten3124]

What a relief to finally understand that I am not alone. Thank you, thank you, thank you ❤️❤️❤️

[@AV_AllYouNeedIsLove]

Wow! This information is so profound. The human mind is the universe. Mel you are amazing, I literally got chills then started crying when you were talking about your experience of the moment of day two and the anticipation of walking to the bathroom to high five yourself in the mirror. How beautiful🙏🙏Thank you Mel Robbins. Can you imagine our world a few generations from now with this type of self love and positive thinking patterns. So beautiful.❤❤❤

[@katenicks9772]

Mel, I listened to this podcast as well as so many but this one hit home with me. I have tried my whole life to figure out what is wrong with me. I have lived through abuse and my father committing suicide when I 9. My brain has had an ah ha moment. Thank you Mel. Kati

[@filizpetrignani3518]

Dear Steve This is the one, unforgettable and healing interview. Thank you.

[@AnjuliMack]

Within the first 10 minutes I am shocked and cannot wait to learn more about Mel. I am so sorry Mel for all that you had to go through as a child, thank you for opening up and sharing this.

[@denasharpe2393]

♥

[@plaisirdelanglais]

This is the deepest interview and video I have ever seen of Mel. There is so much more to her than what floats around the internet. Very refreshing.

[@TheDiaryOfACEO]

thank you! Good to hear you enjoyed it

[@ManosFeliceArt]

Fascinating interview with Mel, I can so relate to many of her anxious experiences and her pathway to overcoming them. 2016 to 2020 I went through a hellish journey with anxiety that led to depression. I was taught many tools by an anxiety specialist for dealing with this debilitating condition through mostly NLP techniques that really worked for me so I recognise a lot of the re-programming that Mel is talking about. What a woman to share her story so powerfully, I think I might add the high-five to my daily routine. I don't have any problems with self-talk now, have gone from strength to strength and yet hearing her talk reminds me how far I've come so I'm massively grateful for this episode, thank you.

[@michellebailey5892]

Absolutely love how the language in this podcast is not edited out 👌 What an awesome woman! Amazing!

[@anitawilliams22]

This was beyond helpful for me. I felt I had many aha epiphany moments that have lit up what I know and I believe we all know, deep down inside. We all have our own strength inside, given by God. Know that this is true for you ❤🎉

[@asabentley9174]

Tip: Watch this one all the way to the end. Being "seen" is probably the most profound observation and realisation that I've heard and that we all need to hear. It's had my brain running in at 100mph since. It's a great self-reflection point.

[@Tom_murray89]

I’d just like to say this episode is so helpful for overcoming my anxiety attacks it puts my brain back into neutral.

[@CurranDunn]

2024 the episode GOES IN!! May we all heal internally and “explode” in life as the, Mel Robbins did.

[@amandautz9035]

Her explanation about how she felt like she lived in a constant state of self-loathing and anxiety is exactly what I have been living for my 46 years of life. I am going to deep dive into her content and put these ideas into practice. The discomfort in my body and mind has always been indescribable for me, and she has hit the nail on the head. I am so driven to finally feel good in my skin. Thank you for this episode

[@toomylight2311]

Omg ! She’s brilliant! She has just answered all my questions . That therapy never answered . She really gets people . Thank you .

[@ApexSportsbooks]

I have never in my life listened to a more life changing podcast in my life, absolutely sensational 😭

[@hansonel]

Love Mel and this was indeed my favorite podcast of yours. She has such an amazing backstory and is doing such amazing work in the areas of motivation, trauma, dealing with anxiety and psychology in general.

[@charmgarland6025]

The video was so profound. I have fought debilitating anxiety for over 20 years and I also am struggling with how I treat/love myself. Mel was very candid and put the feelings in perspective by making it personal. I felt seen without being judged. I needed every gem dropped on this episode. I’m so glad I found it.

[@tamarabella]

Thank you. You’re an amazing interviewer and I love that you let your guests talk without interrupting. Mel is so authentic and so generous with advice. Love her. Life changing

[@lauravsthepage]

I feel like I related a lot to what Mel was describing as her response to the traumatic event from her childhood. I have a really delayed panic response. When I get into a scary situation in a car, I don't have that nervous sensation that is being described but instead I go cold. In the case of a car, I do appreciate the extra control this affords me because I am actually really good at defensive driving thanks to this, but it also means I am always stuck dealing with the danger after. I will pull myself out of a scary car situation and then about 5 minutes after the danger passes, I will be hit with all those nervous feelings I didn't feel in the moment, and I do not get the "truck driving away" moment because the truck is long gone.

[@ChristinaAaliyah]

Loved the explanation of Manifestation in this video, it's become so trendy because it sounds easy and very simple but when you talked about putting in the work that really shed light on the truth of it all 🙌🏾

[@TheDiaryOfACEO]

Glad you enjoyed it Christina

[@Chris-xb6be]

I have had anxiety for around 4/5 years and put it down to one incident, watching the first 20 minutes has actually completely changed my mind as to what incident started it all for me. Really interesting podcast.

[@hollythomas7582]

Oh My God! I Am sending this to every single member of my family with such excitement my entire Being is buzzing. Mel’s every word On Point and so true that virtually any person Will Identify with, For Sure. I am 64 in 5 weeks, my mother sent me and my 4 grown sons and daughters and to my sisters a book on Breaking The Cycle, gosh 6 months ago now. None of us have opened its cover. But Now. With Enthusiasm and How! Truly Mel, Talk about Divine Intervention. Thank you Steve for THE Best conversation I can remember in an age.

[@ThechosenoneAlabama]

Since your first video, I’ve grown! I can feel in my soul I’m now headed in the right direction by how certain things are aligning correctly. It’s not happening overnight but I see the signs that my ancestors most definitely hear me. From this day on I’m committed to gathering all the information I need to be able to know every direction on a compass. Peace and blessing to you always queen! ❤❤❤

[@isJudgingYou]

I am so grateful for how much better our understanding of trauma is and how much better we’re able to treat it than even a decade ago. This is such a great interview. ❤

[@eebinom]

Life changing. This woman is describing my journey to the letter ❤ thank you. I’ve learned so much.

[@mariaburneci5469]

❤Thank you for everything you are sharing!

[@terricraig616]

Definitely glad I watched this from beginning to end. I’ve always been a fan of Mel and I just absorb her content and she is amazing. I wish I could breathe her every day. She’s a strong wind who impacts my life in some great ways. Love you lady!

[@TheDiaryOfACEO]

Thanks Terri, she’s fantastic isn’t she!

[@simmychua3026]

She's more profound in thinking and in feeling than a normal medical professional such as a psychologist ,psy hotherapist or psychiatrist and she is a combination of all that and if also with the mindset of evy pompouras. She is an all in one package. All her varied interviews and vlogs are all different ,meaningful ,and resonates to all of us. She is the most introspective ,complete package guest. Listening to her is like a therapy in progress for most of us 😊❤😅🎉

[@Loveisalloneneeds]

Everyone facing anxiety should watch this! I truly wish I would have had a Mel Robbins in my life 10+ years ago. I suffered mainly from ignorance and I think noat of us do. She explained the eating, not-eating unhealthy cycle so easy. We often think it’s how we eat or what we are eating when in fact all we have to do is slow down and work with our minds and breath. Thank you for posting and interviewing!

[@93cherryluv]

OMG…the beginning bit alone spoke to me. Furthermore , I resonated with her not even understanding you have anxiety and how to cope during law school bc that was when I realized after going through experience as well- these are my symptoms and what I need to focus on.

[@TheDiaryOfACEO]

good to hear it resonated with you 🙏🏽

[@nicolamatthews2993]

Resilience and self care is what I hear with Mel love the honesty she brings to this ❤️

[@johnkendale]

Steven… you are genuinely talented and authentic interviewer. These talks go deep under the surface where I feel and we all live.

[@teethenugget]

This was beautiful. Been reflecting on my emotional issues alot lately and seeing how it all stems back to childhood, it really set the tone for every relationship in my life. can’t wait to heal these parts of me

[@lee-annegovender9584]

It's so good to know that we all go through the same thing...we can never be in this positive state of mind all the time..we going to have those times when we go back to being depressed for a short while, overwhelmed like you don't know what to do next.. Thank you Mel for always keeping it real because she could easily pretend like the 54321 rule is all you need but she needed more help after a couple years..❤

[@MarthaPopthecherry]

This woman is amazing! Her perspective and her courage to share her personal struggles is so inspiring! I've learned so much from her! #melisalwaysright💜🙌🏼
