As someone questioning why I’m still here and for what after losing my dad to brain cancer in 2017, younger sis to suicide in 2019 and older sis in 2020, everyone left me. I wanted to go too and be with them. Then to hear her tell us that most of us underestimate how necessary our existence is was the most beautiful and eloquent thing I have ever heard. Thank you
I'm sorry for all your loss, especially so close. Sometimes it can hurt so bad. That part really resonated with me too! 💖✨ Cheers to never letting us underestimate our existence and when we do to find our way again😊
My condolences on all that you suffered in such a short period of time… I’ve been there. I pray you stay close to The Spirit and to content such as this, so that you may continue on the road of peace and healing.🙏🏽🌻
You're not reading this by accident this is a confirmation that everything is going to be alright GOD is making a way for you right now at this moment!🙏🙏🙏
Flowing through us all. In following up with Mel said, I immediately became aware that God keeps using something that we is humans keep hiding from which is sexuality to reveal to us. The greatness that we are so with her was a pregnancy with others it may have been a molestation with others it may have been a rape. But there is revelation in it all.
As a black man dealing with his mental health. The expression: to open up your cabinets to not only recognize your ingredients, but to use those ingredients to open up who you really are. That really resonated with me. I’m 61 and I’m still trying to identify who I am, so I can really take off as a viable human being. I really appreciated this podcast.
Whoahow. What a powerful moment of experience. I feel so grateful you are sharing. I’ll pray for you. Thank you. I’m grateful to God for you today and this contribution you have made.
I'm sitting in my car weeping as this couldn't have come at a better time. I've been a Christian all my life but have never been able to feel worthy of myself and look upon myself with compassion. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your message and I will be making an effort to sit with myself so I can show up in the world as an authentic human being.
Me too! She has such a clear way of explaining why self-acceptance instead of shameful self-punishment for our “failures” is not God’s will for us! Shame and humiliation is not the humility and sense of mission that God created us for!
The way God uses Sarah Jakes Roberts never ceases to amaze me. I’m a 6‘2“/ 215 pound male and there’s something about her story and how God’s hand has been in it throughout that makes me weep like a child whose brand new bike just got stolen right from under him. Just amazing!
Over 300 years of enslavement has left an unbearable legacy that many dare not speak its name and not only in African American Communities! You see that level of trauma has never been rectified in the way it should? When you really think about it the "collective memory" that people of colour holds it makes you wonder when can deep healing begin? I realised this when I listened recently to a conversation with the late "Native American" John Trudell who spoke about his experiences and the oppression of his people and his own suffering that he went through. America has to come to terms with her sins before her country can become whole. The recent election of Donald J Trump proves it still has a very long way to go? This goes way beyond Sarah Jakes Roberts story, God Bless her and God Bless America for God only know she will need it!
Thank you Mel for having Sara on! I got pregnant at 16 and up until this moment have never forgiven myself for multiple reasons that I didnt understand ! I am now 78 ! Thank you Sara for sharing ! I love you both♥️♥️🙏🏻🫶🏻
I took a walk this morning and after a long time of not praying or talking to god I asked him about everything and asked for answers. And interestingly came across this video. Already in ten minutes I know this is something god needs me to hear
I want to have same intentions- I have been punished by me far more than anything or anyone else for 12-15 years or more. I see you and feel that we have to let COMPASSION AND LOVE replace guilt
Every day I wake up in the morning hating myself and thinking what is my purpose in life I’m 56 and done nothing …felt so powerless I’m always living a lie I’m just nobody…. Until I listened to this video … Thank You ❤️. I’m so grateful 😢
Not only do i love Mel's content, but I also love the fact that this is a space where, for the most part, the comments pass the vibe. It's rare to have safe spaces on the internet! Remember being kind cost Nothing but the rewards are endless ❤
God led me to this today for a reason. I cried through a lot of this podcast. This was one of the hardest days I've ever had with wondering why am I here...what is my purpose. Thank you!
Looking at 13 year old me , who was so sad and insecure. Holding her hand and saying babe you will be alright. Despite the insecurities and the bullying and identity crisis. You are doing okay and you can now stand up for yourself. ❤you did the best you could with the tools and knowledge you had. Now that I know better I can now do better. ❤
OMG!!! I asked the Holy Spirit to lead me to a video that I needed to hear today. Then I checked my email this morning and read what the episode was going to be about, and once I saw that Sarah was gonna be on there, I knew it was going to be great and an answer to my prayer 🙌🏽! I definitely feel like Mel's episodes drop right when I need them, so there's no doubt she's in alignment with God's timing. I'm in a season of a financial mess from poor choices and rebuilding my life. So I've been mad at myself and full of regret and shame lately. But after watching this podcast, I am encouraged to forgive myself and see the evidence of Mel's and Sarah's lives that God can redeem anything, and if I'll give God my leftover ingredients, as a Master Chef, He'll make something great out of my life, amen! 🙏🏽 Thanks so much, Mel and Sarah 😇❤🤗!
Only 40 seconds in, and I'm already teary! "We were all given these lives to make this world better. Most people underestimate how necessary they are." Loved the "different versions of ourselves" analogy. Sarah is a beautiful soul! Thank you for sharing your story.
I am a retired labor and delivery nurse, and I have been in the room so many times with 12 to 14 year old mothers giving birth. There was always a sense of grief in the room, emanating from her mother or caretaker. This is an extraordinary young woman.
As a 60 year old woman who's had struggles and ups and downs just like everyone else, I sat here crying over so many things this beautiful soul Sarah has said. Things I never grasped or saw in myself but now can start to see clear on how to forgive myself. So many things that were locked in that cabinet a long time ago that I didn't want to look at but realize I will never move forward and into who I am supposed to be without owning all those messy shameful ingredients. I also see that those things are probably only messy and shameful to me because I allowed them to be or allowed others to tell me they were. Thank you so much Mel and Sarah. Big Fat Aha Moments throughout this message!
Rachel, I felt your honesty in your words. I'm a 58 year old woman who completely understands. Our journeys are similar, but I can't carry it anymore and let others tell my story. I'm here, I'm alive, I love and most of all God loves me. Thank you, thank you, God bless you.
So glad I came across this. I am a Women that for years has been told "Your mom and your sister are so pretty ", "What happened to you ", "Do you have the same father?". I left the world and do not go out much except to walk on a beautiful path that accepts me. Thank you both again...
Thank you Pastor Sarah, for saying it out loud for all the women standing in the back: “IT IS HARD.” Even when The Holy Spirit is nudging, and even though I know that the whole earth is groaning ~ waiting for “this” child of God to reveal who God created me to be, EVEN THOUGH I SAY “today is the day…,” IT’S HARD TO TAKE THE LEAP into the person I may want to be, after being the person I’ve been my whole adult life! I think I’ll go back and read your book again: Don’t Settle for Safe: embracing the uncomfortable to become unstoppable. Then I’ll open my cupboard… 🙌🏾🙏🏽
Sometimes we just need that reminder, don’t we? Thank you for this. Right now, in this very moment, believing that everything is going to be alright feels like a blessing in itself. 🙏💫
“But also! Im this and that” whew! Young single mother, domestic violence survivor, gracefully broken, struggling but I pray and hope for better days 🥹🫶🏾 Thank you Sarah Jake’s Roberts! I needed to hear this message today!
while watching this video I just cried to God and thanked him. I kept asking him to guide me and this video pops up. I am on a healing journey. thank you ladies
I was a mom at age 15 - i am amazed at the brave 15 year old me & often wish she was here to give me a few pep talks at the age 47. Thank you for this episode...now i have to go clean out my cupboards 💚😢...maybe she's in there, I miss her.
my mom got me a few months after she turned 16 life was not easy and she ended up taking her own life att 40 life can turn wildly. i don't miss her as she always hurt me. i had so much depression and anxiety when she was alive now depression is gone and i'm working on anxiety but even that is alot lower.
Sarah Jakes Roberts you are an inspiration to both the young and old. So blessed to be able to listen to you. May you continue encouraging us to do what we are all called to do. May the Lord bless you more, you are amazing!
@sioxz8435 it is wonderful that you are stronger you are breaking the cycle - you were brought to this earth to be a positive inspiration to those you love and healing yourself is the most positive & the most healing inspiration there can be thank you for sharing 💚
@sioxz8435 amazing how simular your story is to mine & my son. He was born 8 days before my 16th birthday, he was in the icu for a few days and I got to take him home on my birthday - maybe not the ideal bday present at that age. I believe children choose their parents and I promise you he was sent to save me. He also has diabetes and as such a young aged mom, doctors didn't listen to me about his shaking when he was hungry & the need to check blood sugars...when he had monthly seizures from age 5 - 10. He was officially diagnosed days before his 21st bday. Type 1 is no joke. I am happy you got your 'extra' 18 years and hope you have many many more trips around the sun and you get to live your life with more joy and positive love around you. Whenever you need a hug...put your right hand on your left shoulder and your left hand on your right shoulder and squeeze and don't let go until you feel the love around you and eventhough we don't really know each other - squeeze just a little harder and that's a hug from me. If you need to talk - please see my profile pic & find me on FB.
This was mind blowing. My heart was raising as I listened to every word Sarah said. I found myself in that space where I have completely underestimated how necessary my existence is to the world and I have taken the posture of resignation. I have been feeling my life is random, a coincidence and that prevented me from tapping into the high value of my breath. I have been preventing what I have to live outside of me because I have been waiting to feel ready, waiting to be chosen and appointed, waiting to be confirmed by people, waiting to heal completely, waiting to overcome the shame, waiting to have more inspiration or motivation but I am done hiding Pastor Sarah. I am a pastor’s child too and I have been blaming the child who was abused on the inside at age 6, telling her she should have done better, blaming her that she liked it because she did not report it, blaming her she needed to be godly enough to know that was a sin, making her take the responsibility of owning those moments and taking charge of her life. The lie that flooded in was that I could never be better if from such tender age I liked to be touched then there’s no hope for me. I started feeling like God had particular hatred for me and he made everyone better than me, I started feeling like I would never please him no matter what I did but I feel it’s about time I confront the innocence of the 6 year old me and stop blaming her for being so wreck-less and to take away the responsibility I had given her. Thank you Mel and Sarah
Perverted grownups know exactly what to say to imprison children inside themselves and take away their voices at the same time. The damage is so horrifically permanent in most children. So sad for the children who are abused and silenced by that adults actions and words. Some never find their way out to freedom from the guilt and shame. It's the adult that should be made to bear the guilt and shame their whole lives... not the innocent young souls. Keep on growing! Seek your freedom! I'm proud of you for having the courage to deal with the mess you were stuck with. It's never too late to heal old traumas. Keep the faith! 🌟
o.m.g I LOVE Sarah Jakes Roberts. I'm sitting here working and listening to this podcast crying my eyes out because her words are freeing me from ALL THE THINGS I let myself be held captive to for too long. Thank you Mel
Thank you, ladies. Mel, your guests never disappoint. My favorite part was " Im every bit of my past AND ALSO or IN ADDITION toooo...don't disconnect from who you were, but bring all of who you are to the fullness of where you are. " So powerful 💕🙏✨️
When you're truly Annointed & Appointed by God, it will show through everytime and the Wisdom of The Holy Spirit will shine through. Thank you Jesus for saving Sarah....and me too, and using her has a Vessel to uplift many. 💜 🙏🏽 ✨ ✝️
I waa 15 when i fell pregnant to an older man .my daughter was adopted.i had the guilt for years about giving her away.But as ive got older you realise you gave them a better life i was a child.now i realise everything in life makes you stronger.im just fininishing my book its good to talk. Years ago people didnt talk about things .if you bottle things up your like a volcano ready to erupt .Very strong Ladie ❤
Before Sarah came onto the scene. I had retired listening preachers in general. But God keeps raising people with the current word. I am so grateful for her. ❤
This spoke to me differently 👉 "Open your mouth and let it live outside of you, and when you do that you create space inside of you for new amazing things to flow in you and you also create expansion in space for that thing you want and who you are becoming to take up space..." ...it broke me and opened my eyes to what I have been really afraid of...which is the fear of letting out what is in me live outside and not having anything else to offer after that... But she said it will create space for moreeee AMAZING things 🤭🤭 I'm letting go for more!🙌🙌❤❤❤
I have been struggling for weeks after a breakup. Looking at myself with harsh eyes, judging myself all under the belief that I was doing healing work. I realized watching this that I’ve been punishing myself for years and no wonder I am not healing. I am taking this new perspective to be kinder to myself. To really stop beating myself up and love myself. Thank you Mel and Sarah for opening up my cupboard.
Another powerful show from Mel Robbins! Sarah Jakes Roberts delivers a raw and inspiring message in this video. She shares her personal journey of overcoming challenges, including teenage pregnancy (her father is the preacher Bishop TD Jakes), and encourages us to embrace our past mistakes as part of our overall story. Sarah emphasizes the importance of self-compassion, inner power, and letting go of the past to create a brighter future. She defines confidence as the INTENTIONAL OWNING of our existence, including both our strengths and weaknesses. WOW! One particularly poignant moment is when Sarah recounts a time she was delivering a sermon and her wig began to shift. Instead of letting it distract her, she chose to remove it, prioritizing her message and authenticity. This powerful act of self-acceptance reminds me of Viola Davis' iconic character Annalise Keating in "How to Get Away with Murder" where Viola Davis' bold decision to remove her wig and makeup on camera challenged traditional beauty standards and showcased authentic vulnerability, making it a groundbreaking moment in television. This video is a must-watch for anyone seeking inspiration and motivation. THANK YOU, Mel and Sarah! #sarahjakesroberts #innerpower #selfcompassion #selfauthenticity #confidence
My heart is over flowing with joy and happiness and sadness and pain but hopefulness all at the same time. Like Sarah said taking the little girl in me by the hand and tell her you have come so far 🎊 🎉 congratulations 🍾 and it’s ok and I can look ahead.🙏🙏🙏🙏
This video should be heard by all women we all need to know the love God has for us just as we are. All the things we have gone thru, good and bad have made us who we are. We are no mistake! Thank you ❤❤
OMG! 5 minutes into the video and this woman is speaking directly to me! I got pregnant when I was 15, daughter of teachers, former student at a Christian school. Wow, thank you Mel and Sarah! I have goosebumps and I'm crying. My first son is now 38 and he was one of the best things that ever happened to me.
i am listening for the second time with my husband. he is having the exact same experience i had last night when i listened. this is the most beautiful podcast i have ever listened to….
When you can hear your own story and not cringe is the beginning and then you can whisper it to another person. 🎉🎉🏆🏆💜💜🚀⚓️this is our testimony and our light. 💡
Wow! I’ve followed her father for many years and had no idea this beautiful woman existed! I’ve been needing a purpose and have been thinking a lot lately about what I can do to serve others in a way that helps the world. What an inspiring interview! As a retired English professor, I have decided to join a group that helps adult illiteracy. Thank you for this! Sending love to both of you 💕
This conversation was sooooo powerful! My God! I am going to go back and listen again and take notes. Pastor Sarah you are such a light thank you for letting God use you. ❤
I needed to see this, this morning. Today is my birthday. But I have felt very stagnant, bothersome and unworthy recently towards myself and many around me. I relate to so much of what Sarah has spoke to. This is such a powerful segment. I appreciate all of it and both of you. "Your value is an inside job".❤
WOW This episode 🤯 I listened to it 2x in a row at work. Both times I cried!! Bookmarking, listening to it again soon to take notes! Thank you for producing and sharing such amazing content!!! P.S. I’ve also started watching YT episodes while I put on my makeup in the AM. My mornings are so much brighter and positive. Love you 💚✨
Earlier this year, I wished I could see SJR in person. It wasn't even a prayer. I've been going through a difficult time and in June, she put on her Instagram stories that she's coming to S.A 🇿🇦. God made it possible for me to buy tickets. I'm so excited to see her this weekend. This is one of my many answered prayers! Her teachings and vulnerability have been so life changing, relatable that I've seen a slow and consistent growth in myself. I thank her for obeying God because God used her to help me in my mess.❤🎉Even this video popping up this time isn't a coincidence, it is God preparing me for this weekend.
This was the most powerful podcast I have ever listened to. I watched it x3 back to back and cried every single time. Thank you so much to you Mel and to Sarah! The energy and beauty is truly beyond words- 🙏🏻🕊️
God will bring beauty out of our ashes. Thank you, Mel and Sarah, for the many nuggets that were dropped into my spirit on tonight I enjoyed this session. May God continue to bless both of you exceedingly and abundantly above anything you can dare ask think or dream of. 🙏 ❤
That was the most powerful statement you told Sarah. It was indeed meant to happen so that i could listen to this conversation today - many years after & it gets my life completely transformed! I was literally looking for something else, this came up, decided to listen abit now to all of it .. . .. Plus Six pages of notes. I am determined to embrace me, & allow God's assignment on my life to be fulfilled Thank you, Mel for the Show, thanks Pastor Sarah & THANK YOU LORD FOR TURNING HER SITUATION INTO A SHINING DIAMOND!
This is absolutely phenomenal. I have shivers. Numerous times I stopped staring at my phone in disbelief, from the things Sara spoke of. Such wisdom given to us with so much love. This woman is a vessel for God. It is incredible. There are people I will share this video with. I pray it will touch their hearts. Thank you Mel. Thank you Sara. We are blessed ❤️🙏 Time to open my cupboard and go through what is no longer needed! 🙏🙏
It is just amazing! Two parts just sit on my heart and I tell myself every second that I feel all the feelings! 1. Don't repeat a scene out of the whole movie 2. hold that little girl's hand and show her how far we have come! Awwww, I am all tears and goose bumps! Awesome as always❤
Thank you for this pod. Having been told i would not see the ‘ other side’ of brain surgery,well,here I am! I tell everyone I’m here for a reason, I feel sure now that I know why. This pod has confirmed to me that, indeed, we are all here for a good reason. Thanks again, Rae, UK
One of the best interviews Ive ever witnessed across all platforms. These platforms are what will change the world not the people who hold power that seek power. Recognize
This lady is a warrior here from Heaven to fight the plans the devil has made on your life! Thank God for women like this and for those of us wise enough to share her love for Heaven with the world. Thank you, Mel! Thank you both. Thank God for you.
I was watching another UA-cam video about inner peace and I tapped my ears twice to pause it because my son was talking to me, and it just switch to this podcast and boy I am glad it turned to this... I need to near this message. God is speaking through Sarah, everything she is saying I am going through and I believe God needed me to hear this. God bless you all❤
I have not finished listening to this while running errands in my car yet because I had to stop listening and switch to music several times. I couldn't handle it all at once.. I was so overwhelmed by the beauty of Sarah's delivery of wisdom and pure compassion. On one occasion I was sitting in front of the post office bawling my eyes out. Mel, I don't know how you got through this conversation without totally breaking down (and since I haven't finished it maybe you do, lol). Thank you so very much to both of you for this gift. 💞🙏
Sarah Jakes Roberts is such a powerful, influential woman of God. When I first starting diving deep into my Christian beliefs through pain her father walked me through it. And in the blossoming of my faith here comes Sarah and the woman evolve movement. What a time to be alive and glorify God with women such as these! I’m so grateful to God.
Este video debería ser traducido a todos los idiomas. Cuánta verdad ha dicho ese ser luz que invitaste querida Mel Robbins. Guau!! Es para escucharlo una y otra vez. Un abrazo desde Venezuela ❤🇻🇪🙏✨🙏. El poder vive dentro de ti. ... Gracias Gracias Gracias!!✨
She is the true definition of command. Sarah Jakes Roberts commanded not only respects from me, also my love and trust for her. Watching her on Mel Robbins was like a drug, heightening all my sense with every single hair on my body standing as a form of bow to her presence. I love this woman!
I'm watching this today for the 2nd time. Sarah, you have been a light in my life today. Way more than a flicker. I resonate with you on so many levels, I am a new fan.
This video is better than every therapy appointment I’ve ever had, combined.
She is a liar with a dad with lots of money from single moms giving to tge church
Well keep yourvwig off she your head and start fresh with your God given hair you and your mother

I have never thought that I needed a Mel Robbins and Sarah Jakes Roberts. This conversation was powerful and necessary.
yea, it was truly amazing!
You can’t heal while you are still punishing yourself !! wow , Love & needed this 🙌🏾🙌🏾
This was a powerful statement! ❤

God led me to this today for a reason. I cried through a lot of this podcast. This was one of the hardest days I've ever had with wondering why am I here...what is my purpose. Thank you!
Sarah has been my girl since I was 29 ! Four years of listening to her and every time , she is a breath of fresh God’s wisdom !
This was the best conversation I've heard in so long, I know I'm not the only person who cried multiples while listening.
Yep… I cried. Good stuff.
Looking at 13 year old me , who was so sad and insecure. Holding her hand and saying babe you will be alright. Despite the insecurities and the bullying and identity crisis. You are doing okay and you can now stand up for yourself. ❤you did the best you could with the tools and knowledge you had. Now that I know better I can now do better. ❤
I love that. Thank you for sharing.
I love to hear Sarah speak. She is so encouraging and just an authentic person. I’m grateful that she has allowed God to continue to use her
OMG!!! I asked the Holy Spirit to lead me to a video that I needed to hear today. Then I checked my email this morning and read what the episode was going to be about, and once I saw that Sarah was gonna be on there, I knew it was going to be great and an answer to my prayer 🙌🏽! I definitely feel like Mel's episodes drop right when I need them, so there's no doubt she's in alignment with God's timing. I'm in a season of a financial mess from poor choices and rebuilding my life. So I've been mad at myself and full of regret and shame lately. But after watching this podcast, I am encouraged to forgive myself and see the evidence of Mel's and Sarah's lives that God can redeem anything, and if I'll give God my leftover ingredients, as a Master Chef, He'll make something great out of my life, amen! 🙏🏽 Thanks so much, Mel and Sarah 😇❤🤗!
Holy spirit never watched youtube. Pay respect
Taking the time to appreciate where I am now, holding my 25 year old self’s hand ❤
Only 40 seconds in, and I'm already teary! "We were all given these lives to make this world better. Most people underestimate how necessary they are." Loved the "different versions of ourselves" analogy. Sarah is a beautiful soul! Thank you for sharing your story.
"The most authentic version of you has been anointed" ❤❤❤💥❤🙏🏽
Sixteen minutes in and she has already preached a full sermon!! She IS anointed for this!!
I am a retired labor and delivery nurse, and I have been in the room so many times with 12 to 14 year old mothers giving birth. There was always a sense of grief in the room, emanating from her mother or caretaker. This is an extraordinary young woman.
As a 60 year old woman who's had struggles and ups and downs just like everyone else, I sat here crying over so many things this beautiful soul Sarah has said. Things I never grasped or saw in myself but now can start to see clear on how to forgive myself. So many things that were locked in that cabinet a long time ago that I didn't want to look at but realize I will never move forward and into who I am supposed to be without owning all those messy shameful ingredients. I also see that those things are probably only messy and shameful to me because I allowed them to be or allowed others to tell me they were. Thank you so much Mel and Sarah. Big Fat Aha Moments throughout this message!
Amen 🙏🏾 same for me too.
Rachel, I felt your honesty in your words. I'm a 58 year old woman who completely understands. Our journeys are similar, but I can't carry it anymore and let others tell my story. I'm here, I'm alive, I love and most of all God loves me. Thank you, thank you, God bless you.
So glad I came across this. I am a Women that for years has been told "Your mom and your sister are so pretty ", "What happened to you ", "Do you have the same father?". I left the world and do not go out much except to walk on a beautiful path that accepts me. Thank you both again...
Thank you Pastor Sarah, for saying it out loud for all the women standing in the back: “IT IS HARD.” Even when The Holy Spirit is nudging, and even though I know that the whole earth is groaning ~ waiting for “this” child of God to reveal who God created me to be, EVEN THOUGH I SAY “today is the day…,” IT’S HARD TO TAKE THE LEAP into the person I may want to be, after being the person I’ve been my whole adult life! I think I’ll go back and read your book again: Don’t Settle for Safe: embracing the uncomfortable to become unstoppable. Then I’ll open my cupboard… 🙌🏾🙏🏽
Sometimes we just need that reminder, don’t we? Thank you for this. Right now, in this very moment, believing that everything is going to be alright feels like a blessing in itself. 🙏💫
“But also! Im this and that” whew! Young single mother, domestic violence survivor, gracefully broken, struggling but I pray and hope for better days 🥹🫶🏾 Thank you Sarah Jake’s Roberts! I needed to hear this message today!
God's got you my Sister. Don't let go of Him.
The words that proceed out of her is far beyond her age! What wisdom
It’s called the holy spirit that’s getting her choked up ❤❤
Amen!🙏
Amen!
Exactly my thoughts!
MY FAVORITE 2 PEOPLE DOING A PODCAST TOGETHER?!?!?! AHHHHH!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ Can we please have a part 2 & part 3?!?!?
This is gonna be on repeat for the entire month for me. So many gems. Grateful for you both!
while watching this video I just cried to God and thanked him. I kept asking him to guide me and this video pops up. I am on a healing journey. thank you ladies
This has to be TOP 3 interviews Mell has ever done!!!!!!
Saw this on IG, had to come over here to listen to the whole thing.
This has got to be "one " of your best guests!!! For women of all ages!!I'm gonna get her book for sure!!Love her!!❤🎉😊
i agree!
This was the most powerful podcast Mel has ever produced! ❤Power= 💯 Authenticity, 💯 Resiliency & 💯 Humility.
I was a mom at age 15 - i am amazed at the brave 15 year old me & often wish she was here to give me a few pep talks at the age 47. Thank you for this episode...now i have to go clean out my cupboards 💚😢...maybe she's in there, I miss her.
my mom got me a few months after she turned 16 life was not easy and she ended up taking her own life att 40 life can turn wildly. i don't miss her as she always hurt me. i had so much depression and anxiety when she was alive now depression is gone and i'm working on anxiety but even that is alot lower.
Sarah Jakes Roberts you are an inspiration to both the young and old. So blessed to be able to listen to you. May you continue encouraging us to do what we are all called to do. May the Lord bless you more, you are amazing!
@sioxz8435 it is wonderful that you are stronger you are breaking the cycle - you were brought to this earth to be a positive inspiration to those you love and healing yourself is the most positive & the most healing inspiration there can be thank you for sharing 💚
@sioxz8435 amazing how simular your story is to mine & my son. He was born 8 days before my 16th birthday, he was in the icu for a few days and I got to take him home on my birthday - maybe not the ideal bday present at that age. I believe children choose their parents and I promise you he was sent to save me. He also has diabetes and as such a young aged mom, doctors didn't listen to me about his shaking when he was hungry & the need to check blood sugars...when he had monthly seizures from age 5 - 10. He was officially diagnosed days before his 21st bday. Type 1 is no joke.
I am happy you got your 'extra' 18 years and hope you have many many more trips around the sun and you get to live your life with more joy and positive love around you. Whenever you need a hug...put your right hand on your left shoulder and your left hand on your right shoulder and squeeze and don't let go until you feel the love around you and eventhough we don't really know each other - squeeze just a little harder and that's a hug from me.
If you need to talk - please see my profile pic & find me on FB.
She's still a part of you. She is you.
This was mind blowing. My heart was raising as I listened to every word Sarah said. I found myself in that space where I have completely underestimated how necessary my existence is to the world and I have taken the posture of resignation. I have been feeling my life is random, a coincidence and that prevented me from tapping into the high value of my breath. I have been preventing what I have to live outside of me because I have been waiting to feel ready, waiting to be chosen and appointed, waiting to be confirmed by people, waiting to heal completely, waiting to overcome the shame, waiting to have more inspiration or motivation but I am done hiding Pastor Sarah. I am a pastor’s child too and I have been blaming the child who was abused on the inside at age 6, telling her she should have done better, blaming her that she liked it because she did not report it, blaming her she needed to be godly enough to know that was a sin, making her take the responsibility of owning those moments and taking charge of her life. The lie that flooded in was that I could never be better if from such tender age I liked to be touched then there’s no hope for me. I started feeling like God had particular hatred for me and he made everyone better than me, I started feeling like I would never please him no matter what I did but I feel it’s about time I confront the innocence of the 6 year old me and stop blaming her for being so wreck-less and to take away the responsibility I had given her. Thank you Mel and Sarah
Perverted grownups know exactly what to say to imprison children inside themselves and take away their voices at the same time.
The damage is so horrifically permanent in most children.
So sad for the children who are abused and silenced by that adults actions and words. Some never find their way out to freedom from the guilt and shame. It's the adult that should be made to bear the guilt and shame their whole lives... not the innocent young souls.
Keep on growing!
Seek your freedom!
I'm proud of you for having the courage to deal with the mess you were stuck with.
It's never too late to heal old traumas. Keep the faith! 🌟
o.m.g I LOVE Sarah Jakes Roberts. I'm sitting here working and listening to this podcast crying my eyes out because her words are freeing me from ALL THE THINGS I let myself be held captive to for too long. Thank you Mel
Thank you, ladies. Mel, your guests never disappoint. My favorite part was " Im every bit of my past AND ALSO or IN ADDITION toooo...don't disconnect from who you were, but bring all of who you are to the fullness of where you are. " So powerful 💕🙏✨️
When you're truly Annointed & Appointed by God, it will show through everytime and the Wisdom of The Holy Spirit will shine through. Thank you Jesus for saving Sarah....and me too, and using her has a Vessel to uplift many. 💜 🙏🏽 ✨ ✝️
I waa 15 when i fell pregnant to an older man .my daughter was adopted.i had the guilt for years about giving her away.But as ive got older you realise you gave them a better life i was a child.now i realise everything in life makes you stronger.im just fininishing my book its good to talk. Years ago people didnt talk about things .if you bottle things up your like a volcano ready to erupt .Very strong Ladie ❤
what's the name of your book? I'm gonna write a book to!
@@ThenTheresSB Its Good too Talk
Before Sarah came onto the scene. I had retired listening preachers in general. But God keeps raising people with the current word. I am so grateful for her. ❤
Two Earth angels in this video.
Bless y’all for this divine message.🫶🏼
And if you’re reading this I pray something amazing happens for you today.🙏🏼🩷
This spoke to me differently
👉 "Open your mouth and let it live outside of you, and when you do that you create space inside of you for new amazing things to flow in you and you also create expansion in space for that thing you want and who you are becoming to take up space..."
...it broke me and opened my eyes to what I have been really afraid of...which is the fear of letting out what is in me live outside and not having anything else to offer after that... But she said it will create space for moreeee AMAZING things 🤭🤭
I'm letting go for more!🙌🙌❤❤❤
That’s what I wanted to say. Thank you @Blessingogianyo
That’s what I wanted to say. Thank you @Blessingogianyo
This was the best Mel Robbins show ever !
I concur
I have been struggling for weeks after a breakup. Looking at myself with harsh eyes, judging myself all under the belief that I was doing healing work. I realized watching this that I’ve been punishing myself for years and no wonder I am not healing. I am taking this new perspective to be kinder to myself. To really stop beating myself up and love myself. Thank you Mel and Sarah for opening up my cupboard.
Another powerful show from Mel Robbins! Sarah Jakes Roberts delivers a raw and inspiring message in this video. She shares her personal journey of overcoming challenges, including teenage pregnancy (her father is the preacher Bishop TD Jakes), and encourages us to embrace our past mistakes as part of our overall story. Sarah emphasizes the importance of self-compassion, inner power, and letting go of the past to create a brighter future. She defines confidence as the INTENTIONAL OWNING of our existence, including both our strengths and weaknesses. WOW! One particularly poignant moment is when Sarah recounts a time she was delivering a sermon and her wig began to shift. Instead of letting it distract her, she chose to remove it, prioritizing her message and authenticity. This powerful act of self-acceptance reminds me of Viola Davis' iconic character Annalise Keating in "How to Get Away with Murder" where Viola Davis' bold decision to remove her wig and makeup on camera challenged traditional beauty standards and showcased authentic vulnerability, making it a groundbreaking moment in television. This video is a must-watch for anyone seeking inspiration and motivation. THANK YOU, Mel and Sarah! #sarahjakesroberts #innerpower #selfcompassion #selfauthenticity #confidence
I love Mel Robbins and Sarah Jakes Roberts. They are profound teachers. Thank you, bless you both. 🤗🙏🙂❤️
I’m so glad they teamed up!
My heart is over flowing with joy and happiness and sadness and pain but hopefulness all at the same time. Like Sarah said taking the little girl in me by the hand and tell her you have come so far 🎊 🎉 congratulations 🍾 and it’s ok and I can look ahead.🙏🙏🙏🙏
This video should be heard by all women we all need to know the love God has for us just as we are. All the things we have gone thru, good and bad have made us who we are. We are no mistake! Thank you ❤❤
Amen to that❤
OMG! 5 minutes into the video and this woman is speaking directly to me! I got pregnant when I was 15, daughter of teachers, former student at a Christian school. Wow, thank you Mel and Sarah! I have goosebumps and I'm crying. My first son is now 38 and he was one of the best things that ever happened to me.
i am listening for the second time with my husband. he is having the exact same experience i had last night when i listened. this is the most beautiful podcast i have ever listened to….
When you can hear your own story and not cringe is the beginning and then you can whisper it to another person. 🎉🎉🏆🏆💜💜🚀⚓️this is our testimony and our light. 💡
Wow! I’ve followed her father for many years and had no idea this beautiful woman existed! I’ve been needing a purpose and have been thinking a lot lately about what I can do to serve others in a way that helps the world. What an inspiring interview! As a retired English professor, I have decided to join a group that helps adult illiteracy. Thank you for this! Sending love to both of you 💕
This conversation was sooooo powerful! My God! I am going to go back and listen again and take notes. Pastor Sarah you are such a light thank you for letting God use you. ❤
I love your show, Mel! Your guest today just radiates beauty. What a beautiful woman ❤❤❤
I have paused this to , cry, write, and rejoice at least 10 times through this interview. Thank you for this! 🤩🤩🤩
I needed to see this, this morning.
Today is my birthday. But I have felt very stagnant, bothersome and unworthy recently towards myself and many around me. I relate to so much of what Sarah has spoke to. This is such a powerful segment. I appreciate all of it and both of you.
"Your value is an inside job".❤
Happy Birthday lovely ❤️. You are indeed worthy and I hope that you can begin to feel it and see it as well.
Celebrate your birthday by celebrating your wonderful unique self 💖 Hope you have a lovely day, you do deserve it xx
Happy Birthday Beautiful!🎉🤍
Happy birthday ❤🎉
Happy birthday 🎁 your gift is your worth, you have always been worthy 💗
WOW This episode 🤯 I listened to it 2x in a row at work. Both times I cried!! Bookmarking, listening to it again soon to take notes! Thank you for producing and sharing such amazing content!!! P.S. I’ve also started watching YT episodes while I put on my makeup in the AM. My mornings are so much brighter and positive. Love you 💚✨
I LOVE SARAH JAKE'S ROBERT, SHE IS A GIFT TO THE WORLD.
Earlier this year, I wished I could see SJR in person. It wasn't even a prayer. I've been going through a difficult time and in June, she put on her Instagram stories that she's coming to S.A 🇿🇦. God made it possible for me to buy tickets. I'm so excited to see her this weekend. This is one of my many answered prayers! Her teachings and vulnerability have been so life changing, relatable that I've seen a slow and consistent growth in myself. I thank her for obeying God because God used her to help me in my mess.❤🎉Even this video popping up this time isn't a coincidence, it is God preparing me for this weekend.
This was the most powerful podcast I have ever listened to. I watched it x3 back to back and cried every single time. Thank you so much to you Mel and to Sarah! The energy and beauty is truly beyond words- 🙏🏻🕊️
So true and helpful. Special person. So much clarity, God or not. This is a keeper to watch more than once.
Find the forbidden book Whispers of Manifestation on Borlest to discover what they're not telling us.
I'm not downloading anything from the Internet that says "click here" to get the secrets no one else ever told you. Malware or worse!
God will bring beauty out of our ashes. Thank you, Mel and Sarah, for the many nuggets that were dropped into my spirit on tonight I enjoyed this session. May God continue to bless both of you exceedingly and abundantly above anything you can dare ask think or dream of. 🙏 ❤
That was the most powerful statement you told Sarah. It was indeed meant to happen so that i could listen to this conversation today - many years after & it gets my life completely transformed!
I was literally looking for something else, this came up, decided to listen abit now to all of it .. . .. Plus Six pages of notes.
I am determined to embrace me, & allow God's assignment on my life to be fulfilled
Thank you, Mel for the Show, thanks Pastor Sarah & THANK YOU LORD FOR TURNING HER SITUATION INTO A SHINING DIAMOND!
This is so beautiful, encouraging and needed! To God he the glory!! Thank you Jesus!!
This is absolutely phenomenal.
I have shivers. Numerous times I stopped staring at my phone in disbelief, from the things Sara spoke of. Such wisdom given to us with so much love. This woman is a vessel for God. It is incredible.
There are people I will share this video with. I pray it will touch their hearts.
Thank you Mel. Thank you Sara.
We are blessed ❤️🙏
Time to open my cupboard and go through what is no longer needed! 🙏🙏
Blown away by this interview!!! God is purposeful!
So empowering 😭🙏🏼
Hi Mel, I'm Brazilian living in the USA, and I love to learn English listening from you and your amazing guests.
Your channel makes my life better!❤
How I wish I can like this a million times.... Both of you have blessed my day beyond imagination!!! May God continue to use you for His Glory ❤
There will never be another Sarah Jake’s Robert’s or Mel Robbins for that matter. #therapy #anointed #womenofGod
It is just amazing! Two parts just sit on my heart and I tell myself every second that I feel all the feelings! 1. Don't repeat a scene out of the whole movie 2. hold that little girl's hand and show her how far we have come! Awwww, I am all tears and goose bumps! Awesome as always❤
Blended family of 6, that gives me hope. Have 4 kids from the same guy but we're not together anymore. I'm persuing GOD & wanna grow spiritually 😊❤😊❤
Thank you for this pod. Having been told i would not see the ‘ other side’ of brain surgery,well,here I am! I tell everyone I’m here for a reason, I feel sure now that I know why. This pod has confirmed to me that, indeed, we are all here for a good reason. Thanks again, Rae, UK
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 you're so strong, wishing you all the best❤
Happy you are still here! ❤
One of the best interviews Ive ever witnessed across all platforms. These platforms are what will change the world not the people who hold power that seek power. Recognize
The way Sarah speaks and eloquently expresses herself is so powerful ❤ ABS LOVED THIS EPISODE
This lady is a warrior here from Heaven to fight the plans the devil has made on your life! Thank God for women like this and for those of us wise enough to share her love for Heaven with the world. Thank you, Mel! Thank you both. Thank God for you.
You can not heal and punish yourself at the same time. That’s deep….hit 😢 me hard
I was watching another UA-cam video about inner peace and I tapped my ears twice to pause it because my son was talking to me, and it just switch to this podcast and boy I am glad it turned to this... I need to near this message. God is speaking through Sarah, everything she is saying I am going through and I believe God needed me to hear this. God bless you all❤
I have not finished listening to this while running errands in my car yet because I had to stop listening and switch to music several times. I couldn't handle it all at once.. I was so overwhelmed by the beauty of Sarah's delivery of wisdom and pure compassion. On one occasion I was sitting in front of the post office bawling my eyes out. Mel, I don't know how you got through this conversation without totally breaking down (and since I haven't finished it maybe you do, lol). Thank you so very much to both of you for this gift. 💞🙏
Sarah Jakes Roberts is such a powerful, influential woman of God. When I first starting diving deep into my Christian beliefs through pain her father walked me through it. And in the blossoming of my faith here comes Sarah and the woman evolve movement. What a time to be alive and glorify God with women such as these! I’m so grateful to God.
Sarah J makes me alive. I see the future while listening to her.
Thank you for laying low and let the Lord work his art 🖼️ through you
❤
I have to watch this again because I need to be able to write down what yall saying….this just too good not to write down
Este video debería ser traducido a todos los idiomas. Cuánta verdad ha dicho ese ser luz que invitaste querida Mel Robbins. Guau!! Es para escucharlo una y otra vez. Un abrazo desde Venezuela ❤🇻🇪🙏✨🙏. El poder vive dentro de ti. ... Gracias Gracias Gracias!!✨
Thank you for reminding me that my life can still be blessed and wonderful despite my past. You are an amazing woman that God has created❤
She is the true definition of command. Sarah Jakes Roberts commanded not only respects from me, also my love and trust for her. Watching her on Mel Robbins was like a drug, heightening all my sense with every single hair on my body standing as a form of bow to her presence. I love this woman!
I completely enjoyed this. Am I the only one who kept rewinding? 🙂
What a blessing to see Sarah Jake’s Roberts on you podcast Mel!! I know you had an amazing encounter with her! ❤
I'm watching this today for the 2nd time. Sarah, you have been a light in my life today. Way more than a flicker. I resonate with you on so many levels, I am a new fan.
Ditto!
That Intro Was Criminal. From today I exist baby!
