  • World Leading Psychologist: How to Manifest Anything & Create the Life You Want

    World Leading Psychologist: How to Manifest Anything & Create the Life You Want
    Aug 10 2026

    Today, you are going to learn the science of manifestation, visualization, and imagination - and the steps you can take to start creating the life you want.

    In this powerful episode, Mel sits down with Dr. Cassandra Vieten, PhD, a clinical psychologist, professor at UC San Diego, and one of the world’s leading researchers on imagination and consciousness.

    Dr. Vieten directs the Center for Human Imagination at UC San Diego, leads the Center for Mindfulness at UC San Diego’s Centers for Integrative Health, and her research has been cited more than 5,000 times.

    Together, Mel and Dr. Vieten unpack the science behind changing your mindset in order to change your life.

    You’ll discover how your mind shapes your reality and learn practical, research-backed techniques to shift your thinking and create new possibilities.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    -The difference between manifestation and magical thinking

    -How your imagination shapes your decisions, identity, and future
    -How to stop reacting to life and start intentionally creating it
    -How to use visualization even if you do not naturally see pictures in your mind

    -Why imagining the worst case keeps your body stuck in stress
    -How to meet your future self and use that vision to make better decisions today
    -How to break out of a “reality tunnel” and see possibilities you have been missing

    Dr. Vieten’s research is clear: Your imagination is not an escape from reality. It is one of the most powerful tools you have to change how you see your life, what you believe is possible, and what you do next.

    By the end of this episode, you will know how to get off autopilot, break free from the stories holding you back, and use imagination, visualization, and manifestation to start creating a more intentional and hopeful future.

    Organize Your Life & Home: The Simple System That Gives You More Time, Energy, & Control
    Aug 6 2026

    This conversation will make your home and your life feel lighter and easier in the first 10 minutes.

    Clutter is stealing your time, draining your energy, and you are about to learn the fast and simple way to take back your sanity.

    Even better news: You do not need to spend an entire weekend to get organized.

    You need a simple system that works for your real (and very busy) life.

    Today, Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin, the organizing experts behind The Home Edit, are here to help you clear the clutter, take back your space, and make your home feel easier to live in.

    They are removing the shame from the entire process.

    Clea and Joanna walk Mel through a live, 10-minute clear out of her junk drawer and prove that you can start small, spend zero dollars, and feel an immediate difference.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    -The 4-step method to edit, categorize, contain, and maintain any space

    -The 80/20 rule that makes every room or drawer feel organized

    -The 3 questions that make it simple to decide what to keep and what to throw out

    -The right place to start when your entire home feels overwhelming

    -Why you should never start organizing in with your closet

    -The one question that stops decision paralysis

    -Why your mess keeps coming back

    -How to create simple systems your family will follow

    -The daily drawer that makes mornings faster and less stressful

    This is not an episode about making your home look perfect.

    It’s reclaiming your time, your energy, your mental clarity, and your peace.

    By the time you finish listening, you’ll know exactly where to begin: one drawer, 10 minutes, and a few simple decisions that will make your life feel so much better.

What more can we ask for? Someone who’s almost like a personal guide helping us through life. I’ve spent thousands of dollars (and invested a great deal of time) on my journey to self discovery - but - never has one person and the advice they give impacted MORE. Simple, practical advice that I can follow on a daily basis. Mel Robbins is truly a life changing find for me.

All of Mel Robbins material I have consumed has been exactly what I need when I’m ready to hear it or the kick into action with the exact right amount of intensity. Thankyou for sharing all the steps not just the ‘pretty’ ones it makes everything so much more accessible. As an Autistic/ ADHD women who struggles with all the bits of executive function, your step by step daily habits make progress, improvement and achievement possible. I’m so looking forward to the podcast each week I’m sure it will be a high point and Happy Birthday for next week.

What kindness, wisdom and generosity of spirit!

Since Mel Robbins advised on the Launch program that she was releasing her own podcast, I have been waiting and waiting, which I am not very patient. I can't believe it's nearly here. Yay, go Mel.

Wow, blown away by this podcast! Mel interviews Dr Russell Kennedy, who says anxiety often originates from our relationship with our parents in childhood, due to underlying issues related to parent behaviour. This is ultimately tied to how we then go on to behave as adults. So anxiety is like an echo from our past. Some brilliant insight here.

Mel knows how to ask specific questions and break down somewhat complicated subjects into clear, understandable ideas for the listeners to digest. It would have been nice to hear a bit more from Dr Russell, as there were some points where he was about to make an interesting statement and he got interrupted due to Mel's excitement and interest. But Mel made sure that he would come back again, and there are some great takeaways from this chat.

I loved how both Mel and Russell agreed on so many things, and even overlapped concepts, like 5,4,3,2,1 - into my body! High fiving your heart, some positive self talk, etc.

Mel, if you're reading this, I think you would be SO good at helping people understand and cope with their own egos, you've already been unknowingly teaching a lot of helpful concepts - you know more about the ego than you realise!

Looking forward to Dr Russell Kennedy coming back to talk about Ego and other things, I enjoyed his insights so much that I've downloaded his audiobook, "Anxiety Rx", and it's really good :)

Great tips on focusing on your body instead of your thoughts
