      Sadly as a woman of color if I went to a store looking like crap, I might get followed.

At the same time, I do believe we must find places to show up as a true authentic selves😊

Open toes shoes, are they kidding ? They need to get real, and if you want to stay in the sun, that’s up to you, let them go into the shade. ( Let them 😉 ) I think these ladies are a little snobby to be honest.

Ugh, I bless these ladies with deep empathy and compassion for the unknown situations of others, I bless them with the deep knowing that their exterior look/presentation is finite and fleeting and I also bless the shit out of them with gratitude and humility for their 1st world problems. Rock on Mel, with your tits out all the way, your bare feet in the dirt and letting the F bombs rain down in glory! You are authentic, real and natural - a breath of fresh air in a plastic society.

      Naming the point of view (HR) does not cover up that these practices/the advice is rooted in judgement. Somehow natural and even 'not pretty' is perceived as wrong. Even if corporate/societal norms are the driving factor, it does not make it just, inclusive or kind. Yes, boobs out around an immature group/corporate is highly inappropriate. This is not the case here though...Did you notice the refined wrongness for being more natural? The lady needed Vitamin D, can we allow her to do what her body requires without making it wrong? Did you hear that having blood vessels dilated in the face after exercise in a hot room is now 'looking like shit'? I don't prefer it AND it is okay if you are fine with that sort of setup too. I would like to see less shame and wrongness when it comes to the female (in particular) body, and other natural body processes, especially from other women.

Only because there is so much more to humans and what we look like is overemphasized in the current culture. I don't agree or disagree with you.

    Thank you!! I have always cared what other thought because that was what my mother always taught me. She was raised very co-dependent and could never see that it was wrong. She raised me the same way, my father was always very demanding and I was taught to always cater to the men in my family. Never talk like I am smart, because someone may think I think I am better than them. Well I am the only high school and college graduate in my family and I deserve to be free to speak the way I want to. It is not my problem that others are so insecure that they feel put off by my intelligence. I have a bachelors degree in law, I am a paralegal at a very large firm and I should be proud of that not made to hide those facts because it may make someone else feels a certain way. That is not my problem. Your videos and podcast have been so liberating for me. Please never stop speaking the truth. It took me 50 years to embrace who I am. BTW your daughters singing made this military mom cry. She has an amazing voice and hope she shares it with the world.

    Holy crap!! I live barefoot as often as possible! I am a Massage Therapist & Reiki Master. When will we evolve beyond antiquated "nipples & toes must be covered" male demeaning women, thinking???!!!! I am so happy Mel rises above this nonsense! I am truly shocked at these corporate women and their boxed in ideals. Hopefully Mel will help them to ease up and see how free REAL WOMEN can be in their own confidence. Hugs to you all!! I am still trying to get this!! Love, love, love YOU, MEL!!!!! Be.YOU.tiful.

    Good for you Mel! I’m 74 years old & not happy to say it took me to age 60 to stop worrying about what other people think of me. As a lifetime empath, I’ve been a kind, loving supportive & successful person but self acceptance was my challenge. Life is soooooo sweet once you stop the constant worry. I’m sorry you have to work with judgmental people.

    I love the advice you gave Dr Amy! She deserves to be recognized for her accomplishments. I think she felt undeserving and self conscious about the title. She should be proud if it!!
    Please don’t censor yourself to conform to society’s “rules.” We
    need more authentic people in the world! Open toe shoes and sunbathing at lunch should be acceptable behavior!!

    i feel really uncomfortable and find it hard to believe how much HER STAFF were judging and getting her to conform to their norms. mel wasnt wearing PJs at the audible meeting, nor was she nude by the pool. the q that crosses my mind is: where does the judgement end? or does it?

    Came over for the photo and it did not disappoint!! Saturday I wore a top to the farmer's market that I love but never wear because it doesn't work with a bra. It def pushed my comfort zone as I felt I could see my nipples more than I'd like. I wore it, got a complement and lived to tell the tale here! Wooohooo! Giving less f*cks every day!! Love you so much Mel and team!

    I love that you are you and that gives everyone else to be "real" which as women we have been told to shut it down, look a certain way, don't be to smart etc Women think they have to be perfect and wait until everything is in perfect place. meaning we never do the things we want to do.
    Be you Mel

    I love this sooo much. I very recently found (& subscribed!) to the Mel Robbins channel!! I'm a 43 y'o finally finishing my BA studying psychology. 14 year practicing LMT (massage) & going through a personal transition on becoming my ideal self! What I loved about this session is the openness to constructive criticism. No one was being mean nor tearing each other down. It was all loving and honest without being * brutal*. This is one of those concepts that is changing for the better in our currently society!! Having an open discussion with our peers about *norms* and conformity versus being most authentic selves by doing what brings us joy and confidence!! I do think if it effects other people directly even if just making something socially awkward, we should be able to have a discussion JUST LIKE THIS with people we care about!! Not take it super personally as an attack but an opportunity for growth and gives the open opportunity for a response... not a defense... because it's not an attack!!! I applaud the content I've watched thus far!! Keep up the amazing work/content/creation/openness/honesty/awesomeness!!!

    And made me realize my real problem. I always thought it was fear and I was half right. The real answer is its the fear of what others think.
    It's easier to solve a problem once you have identified what the problem is.
    And I have you to thank for that. So now after living a lifetime trying to fix me. I feel that if I fix this there is nothing holding me back. So here I go.. love ❤️ u Mel!!!!
