    That changes now.

    In this episode, Mel breaks down exactly why you’re staying up too late, even though you know better. It’s not your fault. There’s real science behind it, and once you understand what’s happening, you can take back control.

    You’ll also learn the 5 easy steps you can take right after you finish listening that will help you close out each day, sleep better, and set you up to feel better tomorrow.

  • Look, Feel, & Stay Young Forever: #1 Orthopedic Surgeon’s Proven Protocol
    Mar 6 2025

    Today, you will learn why everything you thought about aging is wrong — and how to stay strong, energized, and mobile at any age.

    Dr. Vonda Wright, MD, joins Mel today to give you the wakeup call of a lifetime – one that will teach you how to look, feel, and stay young forever.

    Dr. Wright is a double board-certified orthopedic surgeon and one of the world’s leading experts on mobility, musculoskeletal aging, and longevity. Her pioneering research proves that aging doesn’t mean getting weaker — it means getting smarter about how you move.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why everything you’ve been told about aging is a lie, and how you can be stronger, healthier, and more energized at any age.
    • How to slow aging (and even reverse it) with mobility, muscle-building, and simple daily habits.
    • The best exercises for overall health & longevity — and why Dr. Wright says most people focus on the wrong things.
    • Why women are often misled about aging — and how to take control of your health before it’s too late.
    • What doctors don’t tell you about joint pain, arthritis, and how to fix it.

    Dr. Wright will break down the exercise routine scientifically proven to change the way your body looks and feels, plus a powerful mindset shift that will completely change how you view aging.

    Whether you’re 25 or 65, this episode will give you a science-backed roadmap to staying strong, mobile, and independent for life.

  • How to Stop Screwing Yourself Over
    Mar 3 2025

    Today, you’re getting a wake-up call that will forever change the way you see your phone, your attention, and your time.

    Mel is pulling back the curtain on the hidden game that Big Tech is playing with your brain—one designed to hijack your focus, drain your energy, and keep you scrolling so they can profit off of you.

    But here’s the good news: once you see the game for what it is, you can stop losing and start winning.

    In this episode, you’ll learn why you feel exhausted after scrolling, why you can’t stop checking your phone, and how social media is manipulating you in ways you don’t even realize.

    Mel breaks down the science of dopamine, motivation, and attention—and how simple, research-backed changes can help you reclaim control.

    Mel also shares her conversation with renowned psychiatrist Dr. Alok Kanojia, also known as Dr. K, who reveals the shocking truth about what your phone is doing to your brain—and how to undo the damage starting today.

    By the end, you’ll have the tools to take your power back, set boundaries with technology, and start using your phone as a tool rather than being the tool.

    If you’re tired of feeling distracted, overwhelmed, and drained, this episode is the wake-up call you need.

    To hear more from Dr. K, listen to this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, that goes deeper into the themes discussed today: Before You Waste Time, Listen to This

I needed this

I skipped ahead for this one because I really needed it. And boy did it help. I had almost canceled on a friend because I was afraid they didn’t like me as much as I liked them. I was afraid their life was a party and I was just boring, a chore for them. Yes, I really needed this podcast. I was telling myself 2 of the 5 lies, right there. Thanks for the help Mel. I even shared this with another person I thought might benefit from it.

Mel’s messages are completely relevant. She responds with honesty and simple solutions. Not always easy but logical solutions. Not to mention I love her honest communication with her adult kids. Thank you Mel!

Mel is a gift from God!

Every time I listen to Mel I seriously feel her heart. Out of every coach, self help leader, or anyone else in this industry, Mel Robins is 1000000% the best of the best. She always breaks things down, even with the professionals, to make it so real for even the lowest of lows. She not only give tips and insight, but a detailed outline of the who what when where and why too. I love you Mel, thank you ❤️

Thank you so much Mel

This helped so much. I do not, as of right now, have a big vision/goal for myself. I use to make a list the night before if goals I had for the following day, til someone said I wasn’t thinking big. Til that moment, I was doing most if not all of them. It popped my balloon that I stopped and don’t do that nor have a big goal. It was like the vision board, was told big goals. I don’t have any other than getting thru Christmas with our store as I work on getting it restocked right now as we just brought a trailer load home. Yes I’m listening to you on pod casts and audible as I’m doing so. Now to get going on setting my small goals again. Thank you for telling me I was working on the big goal, tho I may not know it or realize it at this time. Sending you much love and so glad to hear your voice after hearing how ill you sounded last time 💜💜🙏🙏💜💜👐👐💜💜
