The Mel Robbins Podcast

I read a copy of this book that I'm holding right now called Fighting for Friendship, the Science and Art of Conflict and Connecting in Women's Relationships. And I learned so much.

I'm thrilled to dig into your amazing book, Fighting for Our Friendships, The Science and Art of Conflict and Connection in Women's Relationships.

What I love about your book, Fighting for Our Friendships, is that you not only go straight at this and you unpack all the things that we, or I'll speak for myself, I got profoundly wrong about navigating female friendships.

You wrote the bestselling book, Fighting for Our Friendships, and you're unpacking the research that is incredibly eyeopening about the unique nature of female friendships.

Jay Shetty is also the number one New York Times bestselling author of two books, Think Like a Monk and Eight Rules of Love, which have been translated into over 47 languages.

And by the way, she is a New York Times bestselling cookbook author, and the name of the cookbook is Joy Full.

She is the author of three bestselling books on mental health, including the one I'm holding right now, Why Am I So Anxious?

Why Am I So Anxious? This is a fantastic book, but more importantly, you know what it is? It is a resource.

So thank you, thank you, thank you for writing such a fantastic book that I'm sure is helping millions of people.

I read out of Ryan Holiday's The Daily Stort and I read out of Robert Greene's Daily Laws...

The Alchemist is a simple but profound story about a shepherd in Spain named Santiago who follows his dream on a spiritual quest, and the major takeaway is that when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

When I cracked open the 25th anniversary edition, I learned that it was first published in Brazil, failed miserably, and then was rescued by a publisher after the author persisted for years.

I have read this book over and over again; it has sold 65million copies, stayed on bestseller lists for over 300 weeks, and I still recommend it to adult kids and anyone who needs a reminder of their inner treasure.

She's the author of two groundbreaking books, Roar and The Next Level.

And it's called The Top Five Regrets of Dying People.

She has taken all of that wisdom and poured it into her new bestselling book, Open When. It's a book that you Open When things are going wrong. It's a toolkit for life that will help you handle the ups, the downs, and everything in between.

I can't tell you how excited I am to be here. I'm a massive fan, so thanks for having me... I want to start by telling you, your new book, Open When, is absolutely extraordinary. I am so proud of you. I am so excited for the world to have this book.

I just wanted to read even the table of contents, because it is literally a guide to life... Open When your inner voice is your own worst critic. When you doubt yourself and want to feel more confident. Open When you're overthinking everything. Open When you have done something you regret. I needed this book 30 years ago, Dr. Julie.

When you open the book in a crisis, you can grab it, look at what it says, and have someone literally grab you by the shoulders, look you in the eye and say, I know a way through, follow me.

Thank you for writing this incredible instant bestseller, Open When, which is truly exactly as you envisioned. It is a guide to life because life is hard, but you don't have to be so hard on yourself.

She's also written five bestselling books, including Fitness After 40, Younger in Eight Weeks, Guide to Thrive and the upcoming book Unbreakable.

And congratulations on your new book, The Next Conversation, Argue Less, Talk More.

Thank you very much. I'm very proud of it. Very excited to help a lot of people.

if you have been hanging out for a while, or you've read either the five-second rule or the high-five habit, or you've been listening to the podcast, you've probably heard me talk about this.

I actually wrote about this in my New York Times bestselling book The High Five Habit.

She wrote the book called The Autoimmune Cure and she is going to give you and me a master class and a private consultation on all things autoimmune disease.

Your book, The Autoimmune Cure, is basically a roadmap for doing that.

When I posted this clip, Dr. Gabor Mate was on the show, and he had this moment where he talked about autoimmune diseases in women. And it was one of the single most viral things that I've ever posted online. And it was all about what you're talking about, these environmental factors that contribute to the documented rise in autoimmune diseases in women.

And then I wrote a book about it called Leaving the Saints, How I Left the Mormons and Found My Faith.

And a book that became a massive New York Times bestseller.

So you nailed it in your book, Let Them.

So let them kind of relaxes the spiral. And then when you say, let me, let me do something given that this person or this world event is happening the way it's happening. Let me assume my response ability, my ability to respond given that my mind is free.

The third one has so much crazy science around it that I wrote an entire bestselling book about it. And that third habit that I want you to do is something that you're going to add to your morning routine after you brush your teeth... I'm going to read from my New York Times bestselling book, The HighFive Habit.

This is on page 24 of this book, the reason why you want to highfive yourself in the mirror... the research from Dr. Lawrence Katz, who studies neurobics, shows that this unexpected movement snaps your brain into attention and acts like a brain fertilizer.

He wrote the New York Times bestseller, Trauma, The Invisible Epidemic. And the introduction for that book, the foreword, was written by Lady Gaga, because he treated Lady Gaga, and she says that Dr. Conte saved her life.
