  • Trust Your Gut: How to Make a Hard Decision
    Apr 28 2025

    In today’s episode, Mel will help you make any decision that you’re facing.

    Today, she is giving you a masterclass in decision making—the psychology, the science, and the step-by-step framework she personally uses to stop spinning, start moving, and trust your gut.

    If you're stuck in indecision, overthinking, or afraid of making the wrong choice—this episode is for you.

    You’ll learn how to:

    -Trust your intuition (yes, it’s real—and it’s backed by science)

    -Stop second-guessing yourself

    -Know when to go with your gut vs. when to slow down and make a plan

    -Navigate difficult decisions that affect other people (like calling off a wedding or leaving a job)

    -Handle the emotional aftermath of hard choices

    -Build the confidence to make any decision—even the scary ones

    This episode is packed with the tools, insights, and clarity you need to stop avoiding your choices and start creating the life you actually want.

    You are one decision away from a different life. And chances are you already know exactly what to do, you’re just too afraid to do it.

    This episode will teach you how to trust your gut and give you the courage to make the hard decision you know deep down you have to make.

A MUST listen….a GUARANTEED support!

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.

Great tips on focusing on your body instead of your thoughts

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 :)

What kindness, wisdom and generosity of spirit!

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.

Mel Robbins Podcast - finally it's here

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.
