Hey, it's your friend Mel and welcome to the Mel Robbins podcast. You know, lately, I'm just gonna admit it, I've been feeling more discouraged than normal. Maybe you have too. It's just that there's just so much polarization, so much negativity, whether you're looking at the headlines or online, it's so easy to get to a point where you're just exhausted.

Haven't you wondered how did we get here? Why is everybody so far apart? But despite all this noise, here is what I choose to believe. I believe that we want the same things for ourselves and our families. I believe that we define success in largely the same way.

I mean, you want to be a good person, you want to feel like your authentic self, you want to do something with your life that makes a difference in the world. You want good relationships with your family and your friends. And yet somehow, this truth that unites us. It has been hijacked by headlines, politics, the lies on social media, the busyness and pressure of trying to fit in, that it's easy to forget who you are and what truly matters to you. In fact, I think that's why you listen to this podcast, because every time you listen, you are reminded that you are capable of so much more, that you deserve more.
