Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast. Today, I'm going to answer a question that I get asked from listeners of the Mel Robbins Podcast around the world. I get this question almost every day, and this is the question. Mel, who do you listen to? When life gets hard, when the world seems overwhelming, when you feel discouraged or beaten up by life, who do you listen to, Mel? Who's the voice that gives you hope, that opens your mind and your heart? Who's the person that you can listen to all day long? You know, someone who just makes you feel like everything's going to be okay, that you have the power to meet the challenges of your life and not be defeated or defined by it, but to emerge stronger, wiser, better.

So let's jump in to the moment when Sarah Jakes Roberts first walked in to our Boston studios. Sarah Jakes Roberts, I'm so excited to get to spend some time with you. Thank you. I'm looking forward to it. So I would love to have you start by talking directly to the person who's listening and share with them what they can expect to experience and learn from you today. Like how might their life change if they take everything that you're about to share to heart?
Hmm.
I would say today you are going to learn to rest in the truth of who you are, not just your hopes and dreams, the achievements and shiny things, but the things that have been hard and challenging. Today, you're going to find a way to rest in that, embrace it, accept it, and then allow it to propel you into a big, beautiful future.
Oh, yeah.
I'm ready.
Yeah.
Yeah. I would like that. Let's go. Let's go. And in order to go forward, I think oftentimes in life, you got to look back. Yeah. And one of the things that I love the most about you, there's so many things that I love about you, but I love that whenever I watch you online or I tune into a sermon or I read something that you've written, I feel as though I have somebody walking by my side. not somebody speaking down from above. And you have a story in terms of your past that I think a lot of people don't realize.
