The Let Them Theory: A Life-Changing Tool That Millions of People Can't Stop Talking About Hardcover – December 24, 2024

Overall good. I love the concept and find myself repeating phrases she teaches in my head often. I added one though before the let them. I added" let go" and then her advice of" let them" and" then let me". I listened to the audio book while painting my bedroom and re-doing the floors. It's not a boring listen. Her voice keeps my interest and attention. Some of the things I don't agree with but most I do and I think that's the way with any advice/self help book. I would buy again and plan to listen to it again.

I already followed Mel Robbins podcast before and I am not the most avid reader but this book is amazing. It addresses so many common challenges we all face in life and will give you so much clarity, ease and motivation!

I really have enjoyed reading time book- I’m almost done with it. Can be a tiny bit redundant but it’s a super easy read that keeps you engaged. Looking forward to finishing and possibly ordering more from this author.

I love this book so much! This book focuses on what I call the new liberation model versus the old model that was conditioned and programed into us that we currently find ourselves currently mirrored in with components of power, control, corruption, stress, fear, elitist, immaturity, righteousness, polarization, tribalism, narcissism, stubborn, rigid and/or chaos, negativity bias, over-thinking, complaining, know-it-all, judgmental, critical, egotistical (ego), selfish/group selfishness, contradictory, superiority, hypocritical, comparison, competitiveness, fighting & arguing, fragmented society, entitlement, perfectionism, identifying/over-identifying with your beliefs, ideological, misery, victim mentality, we are right and your group is wrong/we are good and your group is bad, drama triangle, drama addiction, neuroticism, codependency, terrible at relationships (especially with people who think or believe differently than you and with people who can think outside of the current box/boxes), moral superiority, increased mental health issues, increased medical health issues, lots of news addiction, social media addiction, political addiction, political righteousness and political radicalness too.Thank you to those (like Mel Robbins) that are doing deeper mental health therapy work on themselves to be better human beings, transform themselves, and to be better version of themselves. Mel is a great example of a genuine, vulnerable, real, whole and authentic role model and a real leader in our society!The best thing Mel Robbins said on a podcast recently was something like this, "You are the "project" and the "project" is to work on yourself and the goal of each human being is to work on your own "project" of yourself.....so much truth and wisdom in this!Thank you to those humans, researchers and mental health/medical professionals/other professionals advocating for the newer integration model, newer liberation model, and self actualizing model Separation, siloed, & polarization group models never work long term, are very immature and go against the laws of nature.The other books that are like this are: "Liberated Love", "Unhealthy Helping", "Beyond Anxiety" and "Dissolving the Ego", "The Way of Integrity", "On Fear", "Living Untethered", "Facing Codependence" and "No Bad Parts".Remember, the younger generation is watching and witnessing all of this toxic & dysfunctional mess. Hopefully, the younger generation will learn from this and not be anything like the older generations.Please do us all a big favor and go work on yourselves with mental health therapy work. Working on yourself is the only true, real, authentic way to transform a society. Anything less, is just superficial, shallow, and surface level change. Pease look at my first paragraph and I think most humans will see many items in that first paragraph to work on in therapy.Most of the human traits in my first paragraph are terrible for your relationships and connections in general.It is interesting that the USA Western culture teaches and trains people to be in your own ego and (the ego is the highest priority) The USA mantra is "Your own ego and what your ego or what the group ego wants is all that matters" and "I have all the answers"(ego) where the Eastern culture has their highest attainment is enlightenment and self actualization and they teach their culture that: "We do not have all the answers" (humble). The Eastern mantra is "Drop your own ego, practice non attachment and work towards self actualization and enlightenment". I wonder what culture is doing better right now?You could also try a meditation class or a yoga class (or do one on youtube) to see if you can calm down your brain, body, mind, and your ego! It might also improve your relationships if you are in a calmer, flexible and more loving state of mind. Plus, you might gain more creative, innovative, and ingenuity problem solving skills (which the USA culture really seems to have rarity of these skills nowadays).It is interesting that the USA has so much moral superiority, righteousness, egotistical and a know-it-all attitude considering we have the worst education data, longevity data, medical conditions data, IQ data, mental health data, prescription drug data, human trafficking data, obesity data, corruption/political corruption (both sides), suicide rate data, addiction rate data,, murder rates data, and criminal rate data than most of the 1st world countries."It Is No Measure of Health to Be Well Adjusted To a Profoundly Sick Society"-Jiddu Krishnamurti

Great book for anyone suffering from feeling insecure, motivation, fear of disappointment, low self-esteem. Mel does a great job of letting these people that they are loved, they do matter, and they can take control of their lives. A very easy read. Great book.

Mel Robbins has done it again. And to start this I will say I am a big Mel fan. I have read her other books and audibles, my favorite is Take Control of your life. So I'm a longterm fan I also listen to her podcat. With that in mind my expectations were high for Let Them especially because Mel said it's the best thing she's created and OPrah gave it really high praise. I had oredered the book but it didn't come yet so I got the kindle version here to start reading it, I can't wait for my phsical book too but I didn't want to wait because I wanted to read it, now that i'm done I'm going to get the audiobook too. Okay - so you are probably wondering, if I heard the podcast on it, do I still need this? The answer is YES. i just love the book. It covers so much. Way more thna I was expecting? The big reveal of let them AND let me makes this so deep and it covers so many different parts of your life you can use it. Yes you can get 'say let them" after a chapter but Mel takes the theory into so many siotuations and shares so much research and ways to use it, I kept learning so much. My favorite is the sections about family. I was with my family over the holidays and could not stop saying LET THEM. I told everyone to let them. I told evertyone about this book! They may be sick of me saying let them... to that I say let them. My favorite section of the book though is the part about INFLUENCE. So I say let them, now what? I don't like how they act that's it? NOPE Mel says you need to use your influence to make your relationships better. I love hjow in a world where people are so quick to cut people off, leave them behind, think you're better without [eople, let them is about bringing you TOGETHER with people. It's such a needed messave in our divided world. I am already using the ABCD loop with people I know. The other sections I liked the most: dating section (was sharing tips with my brother who is currently looking to meet someone) and who you use let them there, FRIENDSHIP section, Mel I really needed that, the comparison section is so important, and most of all I love the part about how to help loves ones who are struggling. the entire book offers such a compassionate, approch that feels so loving to both others and yourself. I thogut after following Mel for so long, I didn't know if I would learn anything new, but I learned SO MUCH. What didn't I like about it? Well honestly not much. I do wish there was more on parenting in the book, but what's cool is Mel has a bonus section in the book with a full extra chapter you can download about parenting, which I already read and that is really good, but I wish there was even more content there. but overall I just loved this book. It's given me so much to think about and work on in 2025. I also want my husband to read this, now that I read the ebook I'll give him my printbook when that arrives. Overall this was a great read and I am really glad I took the time to read it.

I absolutely LOVE this book, it made me feel like a whole new person when i finished it. This is one book i can read over and over again and not get tired of it. i think everyone should read this book at least once !
