Mel Robbins - Great Day News

This Life-Changing Conversation Will Help You Make Peace With Who You Are

Order my new book, The Let Them Theory 👉 https://bit.ly/let-them 👈 It will forever change the way you think about relationships, control, and personal power. It all begins with two ...simple words: Let Them. 🔥
—

This conversation will change the way you think about your past, your pain, and your purpose.

Today, Mel sits down with singer-songwriter Mon Rovîa, whose breathtaking journey from war-torn Liberia, where he narrowly escaped becoming a child soldier, to the global stage will stop you in your tracks.

But this isn’t just about his story—it’s about what his story will awaken in you.

Adopted and raised in the U.S., Mon spent years trying to outrun his trauma.

What followed was guilt, despair, and a deep feeling of not belonging anywhere.

Until he realized he had a choice: He could stay stuck in suffering or turn his pain into power.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
How to stop running from your story and start making peace with it
The truth about survivor’s guilt—and how to transform it into purpose
How your gifts—yes, you have them—can heal you and others
That no matter what you’ve been through, you belong here

If you’ve ever felt like the odd one out, like you were handed a life you didn’t ask for, or like you’re carrying weight that’s not yours to hold, this one’s for you.

If you’re tired of picking apart your appearance, hiding your body, or never feeling good enough, this episode is for you.

Today, you’ll learn the 4 simple steps you can take to build lasting confidence and finally feel good in your body.

This powerful episode was inspired by a raw and emotional conversation Mel had with viral comedian Jake Shane.

When Jake admitted he hates how he looks and struggles with self-worth, it opened the door to a bigger truth: millions of people feel the exact same way—but don’t know what to do about it.

So, Mel called in the experts. In this episode, you’ll hear from Mel and Jake and learn tools from two renowned psychiatrists:

-Dr. Judith Joseph, MD, double board-certified psychiatrist, professor at Columbia and NYU Medical Schools, and author of the bestselling book High Functioning.

-Dr. Ashwini Nadkarni, MD, Harvard Medical School professor and psychiatrist at Mass General Brigham who specializes in anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and depression.

Together, they break down the surprising psychology behind body shame and give you a practical, proven roadmap to feeling better, starting now.

You’ll learn how to:
-Break free from body shame, obsession, and constant comparison
-Rewire your brain for confidence and lasting self-acceptance
-Use 4 science-backed steps to heal how you see yourself
-Understand the hidden psychology behind body image and self-talk
-Unpack the shocking research on how screens and modern life are distorting your self-image (and how to fix it)

This isn’t just a conversation. It’s your roadmap to healing, backed by science.

After listening you will have the tools, the science, and the mindset shift you need to stop hiding—and start seeing yourself clearly.

Because when you change how you see yourself, you change everything.

Right now, there’s something you want.

Maybe you need help at home, more support from your partner, or it’s time to set a boundary at work.

But you’re avoiding the conversation. Why? Because it feels hard. You don’t want conflict, you don’t want to upset anyone, and you just don’t know how to bring it up.

That ends today.

The greatest things in life are on the other side of hard conversations.

And in this episode, you will learn the 3 simple steps to have any difficult conversation and get exactly what you want.

Mel sits down with world renowned negotiation expert Kwame Christian, CEO of the American Negotiation Institute, to break down exactly how to approach the conversations you’ve been avoiding.

Whether you want to negotiate a raise, ask your partner to step up, or finally tell your friend what’s bothering you, this episode is your crash course in how to advocate for yourself.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

-Why avoiding hard conversations is damaging your relationships (and your self-respect)

-How to handle someone’s emotional reaction without losing your cool

-The 3-step “Compassionate Curiosity” framework to navigate ANY conflict

-Why it’s more important to be respected than liked (and how to make that shift)

-How to negotiate at home, at work, and even with your landlord

-How to stand up for yourself without starting a fight

If you’ve been staying silent, stewing in resentment, or dreading confrontation, this episode will give you the confidence and skills to speak up and change your life.

You deserve respect. This is your roadmap to get it.

Today’s episode is going to fundamentally change the way you think about spirituality — and what it truly means to live a deep and meaningful life.

Mel sits down with Dr. Lisa Miller, the world’s leading expert on the neuroscientific benefits of spirituality. Her groundbreaking research proves that every human being is biologically hardwired for spirituality — even if, right now, it means nothing to you.

Dr. Miller’s work shows that spiritual connection — however you define it — changes your brain for the better.

It can protect you from depression, anxiety, addiction, hopelessness, and burnout, and it gives you powerful tools to get through the hardest times in your life.

We are living in a moment where believing in something beyond yourself can feel impossible.

You might be feeling uncertain, anxious, or even pessimistic about the future — but this conversation will open your mind to possibilities you may have never considered before.

Dr. Miller will prove to you, using science, that when you awaken this innate part of your brain, you unlock resilience, clarity, connection, and a deep sense of purpose.

You’ll learn:
-The #1 thing that separates people who are resilient and hopeful from those who struggle

-The enormous difference between spirituality and religion (and why that matters for your mental health)

-How to unlock your brain’s “awakened” network — the key to creativity, intuition, and deep meaning

-How to nurture spirituality in yourself and your kids (even if you don’t know where to start)

-Why crises, heartbreak, and hardship can be portals to spiritual growth and personal transformation

Whether you’re deeply spiritual, skeptical, or somewhere in between, this episode will inspire you to see that spirituality isn’t just a “nice to have” — it’s an essential part of being human.

If you’re feeling stuck, lost, hopeless, or like there must be something more to life, this conversation is coming to you at exactly the right moment.

In today's episode, you'll learn how to heal from an emotionally immature parent.

If you've ever felt invisible in your own family, like your needs didn't matter, or if nothing you did was ever enough, this episode is for you.

Dr. Lindsay C. Gibson is here to assure you that you're not imagining it. You're not too sensitive. You're not overreacting. And you're not alone.

If you find yourself struggling to set boundaries, you’re still craving your parent’s approval, or you’re always walking on eggshells to keep the peace, Dr. Gibson says the reason you feel this way is because you grew up with an emotionally immature parent.

And today you’ll finally understand what that means.

You're about to learn the 4 subtle signs you had an emotionally immature parent and how that shapes your adult life – and the exact path to healing.

Today’s episode is not about blame. It’s about clarity and finally having the language to describe what you’ve felt for years but couldn’t quite explain.

You’ll learn how to name the behaviors that left you feeling dismissed or unseen, and you'll have the tools to begin healing.

And that’s a big deal, because doing this work doesn’t just change how you feel; it changes how you live.

For the last 30 years, Dr. Gibson has helped millions of people around the world break free from the invisible emotional suffering that has held them back since childhood. She is a pioneering expert on the topic of emotionally immature parents, and is the author of the New York Times bestseller "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents."
