Mel Robbins

Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast.

Have you ever read something and thought, how did they know exactly what I'm feeling?

Well, that's what happened to me when I read the remarkable bestselling book, The Emperor of Gladness by Ocean Vaughn.

It is one of my favorite books of all time because Ocean could just put words to emotions and experiences I didn't even know I had.

It held up a mirror to the moments I've buried.

It softened me in ways I didn't expect.

And it reminded me, line by line, that beauty can still exist even in the hardest moments of life.

Ocean Vaughn writes like no one else.

He just has this ability to capture grief, love, identity, and hardship with a kind of honesty that doesn't just land, it lingers.

If your life doesn't look the way you thought it would by now, if you feel stuck, if you've been stretched thin and you're hiding how tired or lost you feel, if you've been quietly wondering,

Does any of this matter?

You are exactly where you need to be right now.

This conversation will help you reconnect with yourself.

You'll hear what it means to build a meaningful life in the middle of uncertainty, hardship and struggle.

You'll understand that you don't need to become someone else to be worthy.

And you'll walk away with a deeper sense of peace, purpose and permission to be exactly where you are and who you are.
