Publisher's summary

International best-selling phenomenon Mel Robbins has inspired millions to change their lives - and now she'll help you get ahead, get paid, and change your work life.

Women get mixed messages about how to succeed at work, and research shows that much of the career advice aimed at men doesn't even work for women. We’re left wondering: How do you say no without being labeled difficult? How do you get paid what you’re worth? What can you do when you start to doubt yourself? Should you go for that next big promotion, even though it’ll impact your family? What do you do when you’re feeling invisible and unappreciated?

Known for being 2018’s most-booked female speaker in the world and now a nationally-syndicated talk show host, Mel Robbins answers these questions and more with research-based strategies that you can put into action immediately. In this mix of one-on-one career coaching sessions and personal narrative, you’ll laugh, learn, and be inspired to get ahead at work - all while getting more enjoyment out of your life. No matter where you are professionally, Work It Out will give you the tools you need to create the career of your dreams.

Mel at her best!

Listening to these one-on-one coaching sessions is very inspiring. Mel is so good at getting to the heart of the matter and delicately handling her participants' emotions, then succinctly guiding them to the answers they need.. She combines just the right amounts of hand-holding and kick-in-the-ass motivation! Although this audio book is marketed to working women, I think the advice would be helpful to anyone, including stay-at-home parents, who sometimes are juggling more "work" than society likes to acknowledge. Also, the online companion workbook is an added bonus for anyone who wants to roll up her sleeves and use the exercises to course correct.

Mel Robbins is the bomb!

Want to learn something about yourself and be a better self? This book helps focus your skills and "hersory" to help you with making good life decisions relating to work and personal relationships. I've listened to all the Mel's Audible books, and have learned from all of them. I will be re- listening to this one soon, as I do with all of them, to catch any tidbits I missed! Thanks Mel!

Excellent

Well needed conversations for women. These issues continue to plague us and strategies to address them are often unclear. I appreciate the frankness of discussions and immediate usefulness of the tips and approaches. Thank you Mel.

So Many Incredible Takeaways!

Heartfelt Guide to Success by a Masterful Coach and Mentor, a Must Have

Mel is a master of modeling strategies for women to achieve success. She uses question + response format to get to the heart of the issues discussed for each case at hand, and the cases about working women are illustrative of key universal concepts. She speaks clearly and shows empathy throughout each case history, not only for the female speaker, but for listeners, and for all women! Her sound advice and empowering messages will definitively resonate with you, as she is thorough and experienced in delivering insightful advice to women. For instance, Mel gives us advice on partnerships and explains the most important element for women to succeed in their jobs and in life is this: women need to communicate with their husbands and partners, and children, and establish that they will together design effective plans to set up expectations in terms of assigning tasks on a previously discussed schedule of parenting roles, while women are out of the house working. This strategy of preparing ahead of time results in fostering communication and, in turn, mutual shared trust and responsibilities for the partnership. The outcome is happy families receptive to the everyday challenges working women face. Mel shares her wealth of knowledge within a structured chapter for each woman's case and she includes successful tips from her own family life that ties into the issues at hand. In response, listeners can feel CONNECTED to her examples and practical advice based on her team's research and her own expertise. On top of all that net gain for the listener, she brings a helpful, optimistic attitude and an enthusiasm derived from her own ambition and successful career as a motivational speaker (and newly minted talk show host and she has an interesting story to share behind that too). This audiobook is a revelation for the realities we all face in getting to work and Mel has outlined each chapter with strategies for keeping ourselves and families happy in the process. Her life's work is helping others achieve a solid mindset and winning approach to decision-making in the household and in the workplace! Also, look for Mel Robbins audiobook called The 5-Second Rule, it's another gem which complements this one.

👏👏👏 Every woman needs to read this!

You did it again, Mel! This book alone covered so many areas of life, both professional & personal. I’ve worn many hats with work, including small business, non-profits, stay-at-home-Mom, many areas of volunteer roles, and business owner. There were so many terrific takeaways, and I have started implementing them already! Mel, you are a rockstar. Thank you for putting such positive, relatable, and inspiring work into the world. We value what you do!
