Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast. What if I told you it was possible for you to have a much better relationship with your family, whether it's your parents or your siblings or your in-laws or your adult kids, that it is possible no matter what's happened. for you to change the dynamic with anyone in your family, even somebody with a really difficult personality.
Well, that's what you and I are gonna talk about today. We're gonna talk about a simple tool and a whole new approach to your family dynamics, whether they're good, whether they're bad, whether they're fun, whether they're sad. Whole new approach, because here's what I know. The second that you are done listening to this, you're gonna have absolutely everything you need to shift how you show up
And I'm telling you, it only takes one person in a family to change absolutely everything. And after listening to this conversation today, that person that's going to change your family is you. Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast. It is always such an honor to be able to spend time together with you.
And if you're brand new to the Mel Robbins Podcast, I want to welcome you to the Mel Robbins Podcast family. And here's what's super cool about the conversation we're going to have today. Because you hit play on this episode, I know something about you. I know that family is important to you.
And whether or not you have a great relationship with your family or a horrible relationship with your family, whether or not you're best friends with your siblings or you barely talk to them, here's what I know. You are interested in ways in learning how to be more deeply connected. You want the relationship to be stronger. And I have great news. It can happen.
And it can happen based on some simple things that you're gonna learn today, that I learned the hard way, that I've also been researching for the last couple of years. Simple tools that you can use to fundamentally shift the way you think about family and the way you show up when you are dealing with your family.
And everything that you're going to learn is going to apply to absolutely everything related to family, whether it's the family group text chat that drives you bananas or that you wish was slightly different, whether it's the dynamic when you all get together, whether it is things that's happened in the past that you can't just let go, whatever it is that's standing in your way or causing frustration or that you just wish would change.
This conversation today is going to create an entirely new possibility for you because all it takes is one person. And today you're going to learn that person is you. And what we're going to talk about is so important. It has had a huge impact on my life. I truly hope you share this episode. with your family.
In fact, if you're going to be driving somewhere over the holidays with them, just put this on in the car because it can't go anywhere. And as you're all listening, you'll probably kind of look at each other and then look ahead and kind of nod because we do wish things could be better. You deserve to have more fun. And I'm going to teach you how you can start to bring it.
