A Spiritual Take on Mel Robbins’s Let Them Theory Controversy

You’ve probably heard the phrase by now—let them leave, let them disappoint you, let them talk. It’s the core of Mel Robbins’s viral Let Them theory. And while it sounds empowering on the surface, many spiritual seekers are finding themselves conflicted by it. Is “letting them” an act of strength… or avoidance?

In this episode of The Spiritual Perspective, we explore what most people miss when they try to apply “let them” in real life. We talk about the illusion of control, the discomfort of being misunderstood, and the deeper invitation that this theory is really pointing to—if you’re willing to look inward.

Whether you’re navigating a breakup, setting boundaries with family, or trying to make peace with someone’s behavior, this episode will help you shift your focus from blame to clarity—and from reactivity to real freedom.

This isn’t about giving up. It’s about letting go in the most powerful way possible.
