A $26 Podcast

Good content and entertaining, however it's mostly unscripted dialog.

this is not an audiobook. it's a podcast, with each "chapter" unrelated to the last , they each even have the same 2 minute intro! This was clearly built as a series and is now being sold as a book when it simply isn't.

A Surprise Of A Good Listen...!

After The 5 Second Rule, I guess I didn't have really high expectations here. After all, 5 Second got pretty repetitive, and Mel didn't seem to feel bad that most of that book got to be same-old/same-old. So I suppose I expected to hear people who had the same problem at the root, or had differing problems, but they wound up being solved by the same tool. But I'm a person who thrives on self-development books, so I gave this one a try.
Boy! Every single person who Mel talks to here has a different sort of problem: Business problems, relationship problems, self-acceptance problems, and the list goes on. Some have had decent childhoods (though it was interesting that the majority of iconic issues occurred when people were in 4th grade/9-years old) with remarkably wounding episodes; some have had real horror shows in their backgrounds.
But, and this I liked, Robbins has a way of cutting to the quick with each of them: You are NOT your wound, so stop acting like it. And the people wound up seeing their own parts in their problems, their own failings. Some discovered they were manipulative, some wanted all the attention, one was just plain mean. But that was gotten to quickly and the tools to change were handed over immediately, so it's not like they were beaten over the head with their flaws. Mel is not a mean person; she's just honest and yikes is she quick on the draw.
I didn't give this five-stars because for a credit, I guess I kinda expected more clients. And as far as the Performance rating goes: What can I say? A couple of them speak like they're guest-stars, hoping to become famous. And a couple of them have laughs that about drove me up the wall (okay, so I'll shut up now about the petty things, shall I?).
The best part was that, at the end of each session, Robbins wraps it all up with takeaways that both you and I are privy to. We can all take something from each and every session (and don't get all offended if you hear profanity. There's a lot of pretty common language used).
So basically, this is a binge listen (and I'm not quoting the title or Audible will hold my review or remove it).
Think about yourself, think about your own issues, and find yourself in each and every one of these people who are struggling.
You ready to end a chapter and start a whole new one?

I related to every session somehow! Unbelievable

even when a session would start and I thought, "this does not Interests me" I would continue to listen and evitably I found something that really impacted me in every session. Everyone should listen to this book.

Only on chapter two!

I've been waiting for this day! I'm loving every minute already! Kim you are NOT alone! Those are my exact thoughts! My day goes just like yours except I'm home ALL DAY LONG. Well not so much anymore BUT lol it's so true! Mel you have been my idol for so long now so i take everything you day so seriously and i have grown so much because of your alone. Another growth tool for the life i deserve!

Holy Cow!

This isn't exactly an audio*book*, its a collection of Mel's sessions with various folks working through their issues. It is both HILARIOUS and seriously enlightening. I'm only on the second chapter/session and already so much of what Mel discusses has really resonated with me. This is actually the first "book" that falls under the "self help" or "development" categories I've ever read. I usually see these books and think, "I don't need this, I'm fine." or "I already know what I need to work on with myself" so I don't buy them or read them. Let me tell you, I am SO GLAD I bought this. This is something that will stay in my Audible rotation and read more than once.

The Most REAL Advice on the Internet Right Now

This isn’t just 8 individual stories or 8 individual coaching sessions. This is about the listener seeing a little bit of themselves in each of these 8 stories. When Mel was talking to the guest, she was talking to me. This is truly the most epiphany-inducing content I’ve digested since...ever. You will not be the same after you listen to this show.

life changing and eye opening

I am a big Mel Robbins fan and this one just blew my mind. Everyone struggles in life in some way and this audiobook is going to help you take action. The stories are just so impactful and real. Absolutely recommended for anyone!

Download this book! It will change your life!

I met Mel after her presentation at a Simmon's Leadership conference several years ago and I can tell you that she is the real deal, blazingly brilliant. She has something for YOU in this Audible original which is an integration of the wisdom of neuroscience (5 Second Rule) and practical KICK ASS advice about how to OWN YOUR STORY!

I loved the live coaching sessions. They were very transparent, full of raw genuine emotion and life changing insight. I am so excited about this Audible original format and getting this wisdom to the masses and how Mel continues to make life better for each and every person who is willing to own their life story.

MUST LISTEN OVER AND OVER!

I've listened to this twice now. There's so much to learn that you have to in order to pick up on everything. Although you won't relate to every story 100%, you will learn something you can apply to your own life in 100% of the stories.

Amazeballs

Per usual Mel was straightforward and I love that! Her subjects were all actually quite entertaining. Some were even hysterically funny. Somehow I related to almost all of them and definitely learned something from each session. I'm a self help junkie and this is high on my list of actually helpful and not the usual BS. It was so good I'll probably listen to it a second time. So many nuggets. And the cursing..... f****** fabulous.
