Hi Mel… I hope this helps to inspire your listeners.. I am a fitness trainer.. my alarm goes off at 4 am, mon thru fri.. I start work at 5 am… with a 30 minute commute.. work ends at 3, and I go running after my shift… I’ve been doing this for over 15 years… I used to only have a few clients, and now I have a waitlist, and see over 40 a week.. I’m sharing because this concept you bring today is the truth!!! The evening routine is critical, and the morning routine sets your day!… hard work, consistency, and dedication to yourself will allow you to grow, in many ways! Amazing podcast today, thank you for bringing this to people, you are amazing Mel!.. 🙏🤗❤️
We have the same life! I’m also a fitness instructor! I also wake up at 3:30 am and have my first client at 5:00 am. I’m usually done by 3 pm. I schedule MYSELF as a client EVERYDAY 7:00-9:00 am. I use this time to run, train, go for a walk whatever I want to
If you want to be successful and happy u have to put in the work and self love requires work and effort I had always wanted to be that woman that I look up 2 but I realised it needed me to put in the effort
I wish there was a Mel Robbins 20…..30….years ago. I may have made better decisions and created better habits.but…it’s never too late to start! Thanks Mel!
"When the student is ready, the teacher will appear" (Japonese saying). There were always teacher (the 80s Jim Rohn, the 90s Tony Robbins etc), is just for us to firm awarness to pay attention
1. Wake up on time, don't hit the snooze button 2. Make your bed 3. Hi5 yoursef in the mirror 4. Don't check your phone/emails 5. Move your body and your mind for 10 min 6. Make little progress every day
Thanks! She has some good material but she also tends to be redundant. I think her podcasts would be better if she started off with talking points & then just "get to work" on the talking points. It's like she procrastinates getting to the heart of the subject. 😀
I listened to first podcast today from Mel. Interesting about toxic gratitude vs graditude sincerely. So i wanted to hear more. I agree with these comments, give 5 steps, then jump in. She is still talking about her hitting the snooze button
@@conniegarcia5150A key component of learning any material is repetition. Mel repeats the important components and gives examples so that we are more likely to comprehend, retain and apply them. After hearing this enough times I have memorized it and could visualize myself doing those things in the morning.
Hi Mel! I've recently started listening to your podcasts and you've said something like you try to read everything directed at you. So, I'm hoping you see this and learn how you litereally SAVED MY LIFE today, not just changed it!! I am a snooze buttoner, lifelong and daily. Not today. I 5-4-3-2-1'd my wakeup. I woke up to my fitbit charger having latched on to a tiny spring that must have fallen out of my pocket from a pen that fell apart. The spring was stuck to 2 ports of the magnetized fitbit charger, had gotten red hot and started to flame. I wear a CPAP, so i didn't even smell the acrid scent of the melting plastic. I put it out immediately, of course! But, if i had hit the snooze, that flame would have caught on to the dangling bedsheets and/or the rug on the floor and, while that may not have actually killed me, I'm not sure i could have had as much control over the situation!! Let me add that I travel for work and rent a room in someone's house. So, you actually saved 3 people and a house today!! I am a total Mel convert and will immediately start putting in place these steps to start the journey to a better life and be all i can be! Thank you so much for being a gifted speaker!! I hope to meet you one day and share with you whatever other positive changes I'm able to make on the journey of the rest of my life!! 5-4-3-2-1 MY ASS IS OUTTA BED NOW, BABY!!! ❤
I am so happy I found this. “ding ding ding , your life is here”. Fing amazing. Thanks Mel. My ass is up and I even made crock pot chili for today and it’s ready. I feel like a million dollars. I’ll be planting seeds indoors to get a jump start on springtime garden. I’m in Northern California and we have snow AGAIN on the ground (not normal for us). F### snow. I’m gardening indoors ❤️. Mel, you have rocked my world. Thanks.
Such good info. I have been semi- retired for a little over a year now. (Working 2 days a week) My husband fully retired. Prior to retirement I had a million things I wanted to do, but once I actually had the time, I got sucked into doing nothing but the minimum with him. I need to come up with a routine for myself. ( I do make my bed ) but I get sucked into drinking coffee and reading for hours. Thanks for the kick in the ass!
Me too I love to read in the am with my coffee . I find it can get as bad as mindless scrolling I’ll read the whole book . For me it’s hydration & mobility FIRST then fresh air & start the day . Think I’ll move my reading to before bed and see what happens . I’ve got my pm locked down but there’s always room for improvement ❤
I am a new listener. I have made a decision to stop being a procrastinator. As I have gotten older I find myself being a worst procrastinator. I want to stop being a procrastinator and wake up with a new me and stop putting things off. I listen to you every morning on my way to work. I enjoy your podcasts. Thank you!
I'm so glad you drop these early in the morning. I find myself really anticipating Monday and Thursday Mel days! And I want to figure out how to put the Mel Robbins snippets saying "Get. Your ass out of bed NOW," AS my alarm, lol!
Do It For Yourself ! Genius Mel. And I would ad ..., Do It For Yourself because U're the Most Important Person in the whole world ! Nothing less. And ..., You Worth It. Period.
I’m so glad and grateful I am in this beautiful world with you, Mel! You are the ultimate friend to all of us. I love you! Such generosity, clarity, honesty and reality you treat us to is truly a blessing. May all of these blessings be returned to you a hundred fold!
I stopped drinking 15 months ago, got back to my weight training regimen and got back on the whole foods vegan train.. but, I suck at going to bed early! everyday I say "this is the night i go to bed at a reasonable time" and i fail every night😢 I want to be a member of the 5am club so bad!! i know this will take my journey to the next level. Thank you Mel for motivating and simplifying these life changing topics. The breakdown is much appreciated 🎉 ❤
@@dazzy63 Thank you so much for the encouragement!! you know what? those things were harder lol. I really appreciate the lovely response ❤️Hope you get everything you want and need in this life! 🙏🙏
It’s crazy how your former self is exactly who I currently am and have yearned not to be for as long as I can remember! I didn’t just hit the snooze button, I would set 5+ “snooze” alarms as my backup because my brain was so trained to snooze that I would not even consciously wake up to hit the snooze button and actually turn it completely off. I used to be proud to call myself the “Queen of Procrastination”. Just typing that now makes me nauseous! I’m so grateful and excited for the new me!!! Thank you! 💜
Thank you Mel, for helping me with so many problems I’ve had my whole life. I’m a 71yr old woman who just got taken by another narcissist in my life, only difference, I can handle it better (these men can be tricky) and I’m a easy target, I live in my own apartment, so never have to depend on them…(they can be dangerous) if your not careful…that is when you get the authority involved.
Thank you Mel. I am moving into my second act of life and , all these examples you’re offering I plan to implement. Procrastination is my worst personal habit. My new mantra is, little moves add up to million dollar change📢
Thank you Mel. You have been like an older sister I never had. Thank you for everything Just a little edit you're the same age as my mom so you're like a really smart aunt I never had . ❤
Great advices to enhance your willpowers, wake up, get up early, make coffee and exercise, all of them are the best habits ever according to my opinion. Kind greetings.
Thank you Mel. I've just watched and listened to this. I'm going to start doing the 5 things each morning. I stopped using the snooze on my alarm awhile ago which I'm happy about but my downfall was looking on my phone and texting so that's going to all change now. ❤
Oh Mel! You re truly on fire! What a great video! How powerful & authentic you have become in your speech too! ! I really love you for ALL that you are (You true Leader!) and for all the gifts you give so geneously to the world! Thank you Mel! I ve learnt sooooooo much from you and my life has become so much easier and abundant since I ve integrated some of your morning rituals into my life. . I am reaching my goals with the high five habit and by writing my 5 dreams down every morning after waking. Then I get up and make my bed. I do 15 min of meditation and about the same amount or more on Yoga. I ve had this morning routine for some many years or decades and Mel really improved it by adding the high five habit, The 5 dreams writing and the 54321 practise to get out of bed that really works. Plus other hacks from neuroscience on how to deal with anxiety. But I must say looking into my eyes every morning with a smile and a cheering myself on with the high five in front of the mirror after brushing my teeth has made me become my best buddy! And thats the MAGIC!!! And Ive only been practising for about 2-3 months now! thank you Mel for your amazing contribution to a Greater New Wordl of EMPOWERED PEOPLE!!! xxcarla
Thanks, Mel! I appreciate you and your words and all that you share so much. I have made you part of my daily routine as I listen to your podcast each day as I walk my dog. I look forward to those quiet walks listening to you so much! ❤❤❤
Awesome. I had gotten out of the habits I grew up with. Because I was expected not to have an organized dresser, with very little on top. I was also expected to shower & eat breakfast & be ready for the day, even if it was the weekend. And to know what I was going to wear the following day. If it was a weekday, we knew we had to be prepared for school. If it was the weekend, it was yard work & stacking wood that kept us busy, after that I could go hang out with my friends. Maybe it’s why I had so much energy in my youth. We’d ride motorcycles, go berry picking, sell the berries to my friends mom & she’d make jelly/jame & pancake suryup out of it & serve us pancakes @ 10 AM:: by that time it was brunch time for me. She was like a second mother to me. Then I’d be due home @ Sundown. Thx!! Time for me to put this into practice: keep my house organized, besides eat a healthy diet & wake up @ 6 AM all the time!!
Simple discipline Makes Absolute sense People have been so oer indulged made to think they can't do hard things , means they can't even approach the basics Thanks for speaking to us Mel and speaking sense and making us honour ourselves I've shared your podcasts with my 16 year old son and 10year old daughter and they've both benefited from your wisdom I've been a fan for many years and you just keep on getting betterx
I love listening to the things you have found to work in your life. I have a question what if you have no dreams. I am 65 widowed last year and no desires or goals to achieve.
I am not an expert, just a stay-at-home mom who only woke up to take care of everyone else's needs my whole life, but now that I am Self-employed i wake up to do little creative projects for myself. I find I sometimes want to skip my meditation time and just get right to the things I planned. A morning routine could include journaling, writing memoir, or baking. Just set yourself some goals to learn or teach something and you'll have that goal to wake up for.
@melrobbins oh Mel you are simply the best and your straight faced humour in truth is something else.. I am just dying of laughter over the bit where you warn about going from the million dollar morning to bankruptcy 101 🤣🤣🤣🤣I'm just so grateful to God for you... And the beautiful and loving way you teach us to reach for a better life❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Mel...I did 5-4-3-2-1 this morning for the first time, and managed to pull a muscle from so much enthusiasm getting my bicycle out of the garage...had to climb back into bed with a heat pack 😂😂 From Colleen in Durban, South Africa
I love you,Mel! You have helped to shape the future me and it all started with putting my phone in another room and not next to my bed within my reach at night. Its been 3 months and I don't go looking for it in the middle of the night anymore and,more importantly, I don't feel I need too. Thank you!
Thank you Mel for authentic words and purity sharing of wisdom with us. This podcast was tough and a hard pill to swallow but very much needed to be said. I cannot wait to start to change myself. Your powerful words and your beautiful purity is much appreciated especially after having to admit that depression and my anxiety is beating me currently. I love you Mel!! Praying for much blessings to you 🙏🏾💙
Quick Mel, create a meme w/ that BA tag line: “ sometimes feeling like a million bucks for the whole day, means you’ve gotta feel like $h!t for about 5 seconds”. That’s pure gold my friend!! 🏆🏅👏🏽
Thank you so much, Mel!! You made so much sense and connected dots I didn’t know existed when you spoke about sleep inertia!! Up until a few years ago, I would hit the snooze button and feel terrible, groggy(especially as a child-precaffeine). My teachers said I would do much better if school started at noon. It hit me when you said it takes 4 hours that that’s exactly how long I’d been up at noon! 🤯 🤯 🤯
This CD has three separate relaxation/meditation sessions on it ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq guided by a very pleasant and direct male voice. Unlike so many other products of its type, this CD does not have bad synthesizer music, does not feature a phony or affected style of narration, and does not make any bogus claims to be subliminal or to re-train the brain or any of that balderdash. What you get is 1. a guided meditation for getting into a pleasantly relaxed state of body awareness while taking a stroll (superb for those easing back into a fitness routine slowly after an illness or injury) 2. A nice long breath-awareness relaxation session that if followed diligently can put you into very deep states of full-body relaxation and mental calmness, and 3. a buddhist-inspired meditation session designed to help you develop and maintain feelings of loving kindness toward not just yourself and your friends, but toward people you don't even like. The CD makes no claims to be designed for advanced meditators or for buddhists or hindus/yoga practitioners looking for very deep and esoteric stuff. It is geared more toward the average person who just wants to develop the habit of relaxation and stress relief through natural, healthy means. him, if you happen to be reading this, keep up the good work fella, and I love your accent. I would also like to note that I have never fallen asleep while listening to this product. I would like to kindly suggest to the reviewer who said this CD makes him fall asleep, that he might want to get checked to see if he has a sleep disorder, or if he is simply not setting aside ample time for restful sleep at night. A healthy person getting adequate rest at night should be able to go into deep states of mental relaxation without dozing off, if not all the time, then most of the time.
Thank you so much for this wonderful Podcast ❤️❤️you’re awesome .Am start a new me today . It’s been an inspiration for me to have courage that is possible to create the life that l wanted to live .love you loads ❤❤❤
Hi Mel, Thank you so much for posting this!!!! I absolutely love it and am striving to hit these 5 things every morning, even if sometimes it takes me all day! Ha ha. One question: I divorced with two kids that are 11 and 15 that go back and forth between their father and I. On the mornings they are not with me, I like to be aware of my phone to make sure they get to school and don't anything. Sometimes their dad decides to have a billion dollar morning and go for a freakin bike ride instead of helping his kids get to the school bus and suddenly the bus is early, and they are stuck. Thank kind of thing. So I feel some anxiety not looking at my phone at all between 6-8 when they are not with me. Curious if you have any tips or suggestions? So grateful for your knowledge and experience and laughs:) thanks again
My 30's was a complete mess. Now I'm in my late 40's I can see it. I worked full time midnights at the time. My schedule was, get home from work and stay moving because I had to get the kids to school. Walk my youngest and dog to school (yes even in the winter) that was a 30-40 minute walk. Finally bed time at 9:30 and then wake up at 2:30 to walk to get my son for 3:30. I was jealous and made at my husband who sleeps long and solid. On our days off we'd call "I'm sleeping in". And even though I layed there awake, I didn't get out of bed until noon. On top of all that I never took my thyroid pill because I didn't have a routine and never gave it a thought. I'm surprised I lived through that stage. Oh, at 38 I had my second open heart surgery, so ya. A hard 10 years.
Been “getting my ass out of bed” between 5-5:30 a.m. every single day for YEARS ever since starting the 5-second rule! It’s been life-changing! Thank you, Mel!💋 (Previously, I rarely got out of bed before 7:30 a.m.!)
You are great ! I don't know how you know it all and you are such an amazing speaker to put it out there so everyone can understand ! And opening up about things... how much strength does that take. Thank you !
Mel, I like that you announce an ad break is coming, every other UA-camr just let's them interrupt and it's irritating. Letting us know a moment in advance feels like a much nicer and more respectful way of doing it. It's much less invasive.
Yes Mel Yes Mel, high five. The bio mom of myself, was an attorney. Corporate. The morning was an absolute disaster and night mare with her. Worse yet, the ego could not admit. I was supposed to take on all her bad traits as if I was her split, the side of her she could not afford to see. The competitive nature and jealousy were massive. If I was more financially successful that would be unacceptable. The ego of the bio mom could not handle a daughter who does better than she did. She couldn't fool me and our no contact destroyed our family. Thanks for sharing what you shared about who you were.
Love what you’re saying exactly what I need to hear. What’s hard to listen to is all the F words that really don’t need to be there to get the message across
Yes! It really doesn't add anything at all to her podcasts by continuing to drop "f bombs." I am no prude. It just shows a limited vocabulary.when you overuse any word.
Hopefully this video will help you become a morning person! Make sure to subscribe for more videos like this.
I love you ms.Mel 🥰 more power to you and your channel!

I am a snooze buttoner, lifelong and daily. Not today. I 5-4-3-2-1'd my wakeup.

I was also expected to shower & eat breakfast & be ready for the day, even if it was the weekend. And to know what I was going to wear the following day. If it was a weekday, we knew we had to be prepared for school. If it was the weekend, it was yard work & stacking wood that kept us busy, after that I could go hang out with my friends. Maybe it’s why I had so much energy in my youth. We’d ride motorcycles, go berry picking, sell the berries to my friends mom & she’d make jelly/jame & pancake suryup out of it & serve us pancakes @ 10 AM:: by that time it was brunch time for me. She was like a second mother to me. Then I’d be due home @ Sundown. Thx!! Time for me to put this into practice: keep my house organized, besides eat a healthy diet & wake up @ 6 AM all the time!!
Loving the sound of the Progress Principle and Th high-fiving - you are so inspiring - thank
Simple discipline
Makes Absolute sense
People have been so oer indulged made to think they can't do hard things , means they can't even approach the basics
Thanks for speaking to us Mel and speaking sense and making us honour ourselves
I've shared your podcasts with my 16 year old son and 10year old daughter and they've both benefited from your wisdom
I've been a fan for many years and you just keep on getting betterx
I love you Mel, thank you for all you're doing for us. How can I support you and your work?
I love listening to the things you have found to work in your life.
I have a question what if you have no dreams. I am 65 widowed last year and no desires or goals to achieve.
I hope Mel answers this, I am the same x
I am not an expert, just a stay-at-home mom who only woke up to take care of everyone else's needs my whole life, but now that I am
Self-employed i wake up to do little creative projects for myself. I find I sometimes want to skip my meditation time and just get right to the things I planned. A morning routine could include journaling, writing memoir, or baking. Just set yourself some goals to learn or teach something and you'll have that goal to wake up for.
If not now, then when? ❤❤❤
Love it!! Thank Mell for “adding” SO MUCH to my personal journey ❤️👏🏻🫶🏻🙏🏻
@melrobbins oh Mel you are simply the best and your straight faced humour in truth is something else.. I am just dying of laughter over the bit where you warn about going from the million dollar morning to bankruptcy 101 🤣🤣🤣🤣I'm just so grateful to God for you... And the beautiful and loving way you teach us to reach for a better life❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Mel...I did 5-4-3-2-1 this morning for the first time, and managed to pull a muscle from so much enthusiasm getting my bicycle out of the garage...had to climb back into bed with a heat pack 😂😂

I'm really loving this. I'm new. Thanks so much for this. I had forgotten about habit stacking. This is so great.
I love you,Mel! You have helped to shape the future me and it all started with putting my phone in another room and not next to my bed within my reach at night. Its been 3 months and I don't go looking for it in the middle of the night anymore and,more importantly, I don't feel I need too. Thank you!
Thank you Mel for authentic words and purity sharing of wisdom with us. This podcast was tough and a hard pill to swallow but very much needed to be said. I cannot wait to start to change myself. Your powerful words and your beautiful purity is much appreciated especially after having to admit that depression and my anxiety is beating me currently. I love you Mel!! Praying for much blessings to you 🙏🏾💙
Lovely home, Cas! I think you should paint the kitchen part a colour that makes you happy - maybe teal or some warm pink?
Mel, you give me so much hope. Thank you so much.❤
I like to go to bed at a time that allows me to wake up before my alarm goes off. Apply sleep hygiene methods to get the best sleep possible.
Excellent point
Love listening to you Mel!
Day 1 - got up at 6, went for a walk, no phone, I do feel unrushed and undready
Fantastic video Mel! Thanks!
Quick Mel, create a meme w/ that BA tag line: “ sometimes feeling like a million bucks for the whole day, means you’ve gotta feel like $h!t for about 5 seconds”. That’s pure gold my friend!! 🏆🏅👏🏽
Thank you so much, Mel!! You made so much sense and connected dots I didn’t know existed when you spoke about sleep inertia!! Up until a few years ago, I would hit the snooze button and feel terrible, groggy(especially as a child-precaffeine). My teachers said I would do much better if school started at noon. It hit me when you said it takes 4 hours that that’s exactly how long I’d been up at noon! 🤯 🤯 🤯
Perfect title. Greetings from Greece.
Wow didn't know about the sleep cycles! Thanks for this!
Awesome - Awesome - Awesome!!!! Where can I find the evening routine that you talked about?
Do it for you!
Thank you, Mel ❤️
This CD has three separate relaxation/meditation sessions on it ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq guided by a very pleasant and direct male voice. Unlike so many other products of its type, this CD does not have bad synthesizer music, does not feature a phony or affected style of narration, and does not make any bogus claims to be subliminal or to re-train the brain or any of that balderdash. What you get is 1. a guided meditation for getting into a pleasantly relaxed state of body awareness while taking a stroll (superb for those easing back into a fitness routine slowly after an illness or injury) 2. A nice long breath-awareness relaxation session that if followed diligently can put you into very deep states of full-body relaxation and mental calmness, and 3. a buddhist-inspired meditation session designed to help you develop and maintain feelings of loving kindness toward not just yourself and your friends, but toward people you don't even like. The CD makes no claims to be designed for advanced meditators or for buddhists or hindus/yoga practitioners looking for very deep and esoteric stuff. It is geared more toward the average person who just wants to develop the habit of relaxation and stress relief through natural, healthy means. him, if you happen to be reading this, keep up the good work fella, and I love your accent. I would also like to note that I have never fallen asleep while listening to this product. I would like to kindly suggest to the reviewer who said this CD makes him fall asleep, that he might want to get checked to see if he has a sleep disorder, or if he is simply not setting aside ample time for restful sleep at night. A healthy person getting adequate rest at night should be able to go into deep states of mental relaxation without dozing off, if not all the time, then most of the time.
Im so stubborn about my morning routine ...thank you mel
Please send me the link to the daily morning challenge. I loved the podcast and need that challenge.

Hi Mel,
Thank you so much for posting this!!!! I absolutely love it and am striving to hit these 5 things every morning, even if sometimes it takes me all day! Ha ha. One question: I divorced with two kids that are 11 and 15 that go back and forth between their father and I. On the mornings they are not with me, I like to be aware of my phone to make sure they get to school and don't anything. Sometimes their dad decides to have a billion dollar morning and go for a freakin bike ride instead of helping his kids get to the school bus and suddenly the bus is early, and they are stuck. Thank kind of thing. So I feel some anxiety not looking at my phone at all between 6-8 when they are not with me. Curious if you have any tips or suggestions? So grateful for your knowledge and experience and laughs:) thanks again
Love ya Mel!
We got this! 🎉❤
Thank you Mel!!! ❤
Thank you Mel!!!
My 30's was a complete mess. Now I'm in my late 40's I can see it. I worked full time midnights at the time. My schedule was, get home from work and stay moving because I had to get the kids to school. Walk my youngest and dog to school (yes even in the winter) that was a 30-40 minute walk.
Finally bed time at 9:30 and then wake up at 2:30 to walk to get my son for 3:30.
I was jealous and made at my husband who sleeps long and solid. On our days off we'd call "I'm sleeping in". And even though I layed there awake, I didn't get out of bed until noon. On top of all that I never took my thyroid pill because I didn't have a routine and never gave it a thought. I'm surprised I lived through that stage. Oh, at 38 I had my second open heart surgery, so ya. A hard 10 years.
This is great, but it’s dark and -30c in the morning for some of the year where I live, so the light and outside is hard to do.
Stubbornly optimistic let s do it!
I’m trying to text you a question but it’s not working. Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong? You are the best!!!!!
Thank you for this!
Thank you so much Mel!!! I am in ❤
Been “getting my ass out of bed” between 5-5:30 a.m. every single day for YEARS ever since starting the 5-second rule! It’s been life-changing! Thank you, Mel!💋
(Previously, I rarely got out of bed before 7:30 a.m.!)
I ❤ this woman!
Your videos are so beautiful help others out ❤
This is a fantastic episode! Very inspiring!!
Much needed podcast for me!
Thank you Mel :)
I love this woman
Thanks a million!
I love your videos ! ❤! Happy Valentine’s Day !
May God Bless you! I love you ❤️😘💕
You are great ! I don't know how you know it all and you are such an amazing speaker to put it out there so everyone can understand !
And opening up about things... how much strength does that take.
Thank you !
Thank you for all of your words of wisdom and the laughs! Yes I brush my teeth.😂
I am totally agreeing with you
Mel, I like that you announce an ad break is coming, every other UA-camr just let's them interrupt and it's irritating. Letting us know a moment in advance feels like a much nicer and more respectful way of doing it. It's much less invasive.
Ok Mel I’m gonna do it
Yes Mel
Yes Mel, high five.
The bio mom of myself, was an attorney. Corporate. The morning was an absolute disaster and night mare with her. Worse yet, the ego could not admit. I was supposed to take on all her bad traits as if I was her split, the side of her she could not afford to see. The competitive nature and jealousy were massive.
If I was more financially successful that would be unacceptable. The ego of the bio mom could not handle a daughter who does better than she did.
She couldn't fool me and our no contact destroyed our family.
Thanks for sharing what you shared about who you were.
❤️❤️❤️❤️. You are amazing. This is so helpful!
I love you Mel! ❤
Love what you’re saying exactly what I need to hear. What’s hard to listen to is all the F words that really don’t need to be there to get the message across
Yes! It really doesn't add anything at all to her podcasts by continuing to drop "f bombs."
I am no prude. It just shows a limited vocabulary.when you overuse any word.
Thank you Mel, what an important show! Blessings unparalleled to you and to your family!
