I just want to hug Brandon. I grew up in a home with both parents being verbally and emotionally abusive most of the time and it really does a number on you. I am almost 60 and still trying to get past the crap in my head. My personality was to always try to be the peacekeeper and to be the good girl so you always feel like you have no voice or no importance. Mel, I am so glad you are helping this young man so hopefully he won't have to go through years of struggle and feeling not enough like so many of us do. Thank you Mel Robbins for all that you do... we love you! God bless!!
brandon is getting a chance to live a better, healthy life early in life, after listening to Mel. We two, are very late to this in the game of life. I hope for him, and for us....We all deserve to be happy and healthy, and to begin to ive a better life.
I love, that Mel does not push to make peace with his dad and instead suggest to make boundaries... Best wishes and success for this awesome boy! Love him too - good luck for you Brendon, you are very brave!
If it helps, I had a big "ah hah" moment in 2017, after 35 years of life, many of them asking myself why I couldn't have the relationship I wanted with my mom, and allowing her to make me feel like crap. I realized that I was expecting her to be someone other than who she is. When I accepted that she wouldn't change and stopped trying to get any sort of emotional validation from her, it opened up our relationship in a different way while allowing me to take back the power I used to give her.
What a beautiful, powerful interview and session. I appreciate Brandon speaking from his heart and how patiently you worked him through this. I do think he’ll be transformed by this as will many others. Thanks Mel!
I’m not going to use names here but my dad is 99 years old and I’m 62.- the youngest daughter. He’s always could not understand why people don’t do things the way he does them. So, one day he told me “Why don’t you take this route to the store. Why do you go that way?” Or “Why do you put so much milk in your coffee? How can you taste the coffee?” And he doesn’t say these things nicely. I finally said “Because my name is Mary Smith not Harry Smith.” So, I do that anytime a situation like that comes up and all he can do is laugh. Or, he can’t understand why I am more left wing when he is so far right winged. And I’ll say “You know, Dad, we’ll never agree on a lot of things but I love you anyway,”
My son is going through a breakup and is having a hard time accepting why she is being so hurtful. Mel’s statement about not loving yourself in order to love others what spot on! I shared this with him and hope it will bring him a little understanding.
@@jillthomas366 I think, when one understands himself and his emotions, everything starts to get better and easyer to cope with, so sure, this and other videos of mel will help in that process. Wish you and your son happiness and piece of mind :)
Same! I've been going to counseling for years and never heard this before! I'm going to make my list of things that I love to do...and focus how I can do them each day!😁
I'm feeling this entire conversation. My dad is 70 and I'm 40....My entire life I've had this same relationship with him. He's so critical towards everything and recently he blew up on me over the phone over politics...again. We don't see eye to eye and he gets so missed at me because I don't. I didn't react to him and hung up. I get that he's frustrated with everything and is projecting at me... But I'm not taking it anymore. I try to tell him I'm a grown adult and he needs to speak to me like an adult...his answer is I'm his child and he'll speak to me any way he wants. So I hung that phone up and haven't spoken to him since....almost a week. And now he'll most likely twist it on me and try to make me feel guilty for not reaching out to see how he's doing. Why would I want to call someone who talks that way to me!? Ugh...
Brandon is a great guy...he has so much potential and with ongoing growth he will be the productive , happy, successful and kind person that he wants to be.
Good morning Mel! Las Vegas right here and it’s 88 degrees. I’m a good 8 so far. Proud of myself for fighting through the anxiety that’s been creeping back up lately. It has been a while too. Thank you for being here and helping everyone stay positive and with love❤️🙏🏼
Thanks Mel. This was great to listen bc I grew up with a Narcissistic mother and an enabler as a father and due to this, I have narcissistic tendencies and borderline personality disorder and I'm discovering this at 45 years of age! Thank you for your amazing shares!
Im a hard 1 right now just woke up late and my 5 year old is making me work hard -she didnt even let me have 10 min for finishing my coffee, watching from Israel. Love you Mel!! Keep up the good work
Good afternoon Miss Robbins Thank you very much for the way you helped Brandon with his challenge with his father. It can be very challenging to speak about family issues in the African American community many of us have grown up with violence and aggression it ihas always been taboo to discuss any family issues outside of the family. Many people classify it as a racial issue. I believe it is an issue of love and caring. Many families have experienced physical, sexua,l and emotional abuse many of these families never discuss it with anyone. It was such a crucial step for Brandon to step out and speak with you about what he was experiencing. Thank you for your wisdom and insight and ending on a positive note of love. I hope and pray that you are able to provide one-on-one coaching and assistance for many other people like Brandon in the future. Keep up the great work!
Great episode - I have to watch again to take more notes. It also triggered may questions thoughts about my relationships I am struggling with. Also gave me some valuable responses to family members who may not accept my daughters choices in life.
Im in the same case than Brandon. I began to have responses since 2 years, but nothing as clear as you just said. It's amazing! I began to stop being a burning fire to be more mature and more conscious of my acts and words, in order to be different of my Father -no longer my Dad-, whose model was ugly. Thank you - God bless you both!
Very very important topic. Thanks Mel for being such a inspiring human, sharing all your thoughts and coaching people like this. I read your book 5 second rule. It’s a masterpiece of self control. I’m a coach myself and I get so much value from you and other great inspiring people.
Thank you Mel!... This is very educational and gives hope for change...that makes the difference, to makes one envision and make the changes that are necessary for a better life.................I'm having a momentous moment...
You have no idea how much this conversation helped me to see my generational patterns; boy are they engrained in me. I am going to work on being more aware of my reactions and use the 54321 system to slow down my triggered response, to come up with a more positive and useful outcome. Thank you Mel!
You look beautiful and glad to see you less stressed. I'm watching 20 hrs late , woke up at 4:38 and I'm disabled with on/ off flare ups ..so I'm super proud of cleaning dresser top and two bathrooms. I'm pretty clean, but I had week long flare up so playing " catch up" My father had rage - he also scarified his sanity and peace of mind the day he climbed out of a port hole on The U.S.S. Oklahoma into the oily smoking boiling water of Pearl Harbor. I was super chill until my 40:s , I too have rage episodes. My mother was a passionate writer with a great deal of self discipline and a charm and charisma I could never live up to. The Commander's daughter, and the popular local writer's daughter neither got tutors or preparation to be college bound..so I became a drifter...until I realized many serial killers are described as drifters, ha ha. I settled down near them, owned a successful small business and I think made them proud until I was thrown into a storm of sibling rivalry by their choice of executrix ..which was frankly absurd, as she had a lifetime history of fiscal responsibility. Mom TRIED to earn me to show up for the will preparation. I was only 42, a late child of a late child..I was ready to face this inevitable reality I loved them. Growing out of basing my entire identity on being their daughter was hard. What you're saying to this man is really teaching me, as you always do.
Amazing content on this one Mel! Best wishes to Brandon with the work ahead... Seems that so many of us have struggles with our parental relationships and it’s no small feat to overcome them.
Listening from Little Rock, Arkansas. 7 Recent death of my friend/cousin due to COVID-19. Thankful for many blessings but distressed about current situation.
Hi from Culver City, CA! I am an 7 today trying to recover from a very down day yesterday watching 4 movies throughout the day and sitting on my ass. Today I told myself, many have died, loved ones are not coming back. I can not “waste” this time feeling sorry for myself. I’m not sure what I’ll get done, besides the laundry, but I am trying to stay away from movie watching today. Good luck everyone, this is tough shit to deal with daily.
MEL!!!! OMGOSH I just watched you for the very first time a couple weeks ago. It was an older show with Kim Russo, whom I simply love! I'm a RUclips person, so I watch everything on RUclips and this is where I watched you for 2nd time on the Impact Theory Talk Show with Tom about the 5-4-3-2-1 second rule! That was yesterday and you know what I started this morning? Walking for 30 minutes at 5am! I trade stock options so I'm up early everyday about 5:30am, so getting up at 5am wasn't that hard to do. BUT to get up at 5am and then go walking, well, that's another story! LOL! Thank you Mel for your words, as simple as it is to say 5-4-3-2-1, I truly believe it does disrupt the brain and I was ready to go! For some reason, my 17 year old daughter decided she wanted to walk with me also! HUGE HUH!!! This is awesome sauce at best!!! (Oh, I'm a good 9 today!)
Hi Mel, I once read that kids turn out the way you do not allow yourself to be. If you are not allowed to be emotional, you get an emotional kid. If you do not allow yourself to not live up to other persons expectations, you get a kid that has and lives by own values.
Put it in a box and go on forgive try not go over it over over just do day by day and enjoy the good and beauty that's out there love you thanks for videos.
Hi, Mell! I'm from Kentucky and probably a 10 on most everyday of my life. For whatwver reason, I have steered away from anxiousness so much earlier in my life, it has become automatic for me. It seems crazy to people, but just as surely as people have an automatic response to have anxiety, mine is the opposite. Not sure how healthy that is, mentally, but thats me.
Watching replay from Mississippi Gulf Coast... WTG walking in 10 degrees!!! I would never! LOL! I am about 5-6/10. I have a degree of anxiety about possibly returning to the medical workforce this week. Awesome topic! I am currently working on some of these issues from my childhood.
Mel, I love you! I’m in NYC. Not as cold here. I’m headed out to Central Park for a walk. Turns out a mask will keep you warmer ;) But serious tip: wear TWO pairs of yoga pants. You’re welcome.
Thank you 🙏🏻..The boundary with family is a big challenge for me mostly I think because I take it personal. My anxiety is immediately triggered and I go into fight mode. To which then the challenge shifts to managing my emotions so I don’t escalate in anger or whatever when trying to set the tone of what my boundary for what I’ll tolerate for how I want to be treated. Am I making sense?
Hi Mel! Been fan for a while :) love your honest style, confidence and practical approach. thank you for opening this can of worms!! more space should be given to these issues. I have a lot to share on this but I'd like to share a little more personally and it is hard. Is there a way I can do that? I am taking time off from school to change my generational patterns and it is proving harder than I thought. Your advice would be valuable, and it would be nice to connect! fun fact: I go to the school you go to #D
Good morning maam mel please help me im in isolation right now i cant go out inside the room,i cant sleep well every night and sometimes i cant sleep for a couple of week ago.i cant stop my anxiety and overthinking please help me to overcome this situation and some advice thank you.have a good day
Mel, your segment with Brandon broke my heart because I have a fractured relationship with my son and Brandon reminds me of him. I respect Brandon’s perspective but parenting norms have changed. What was discipline is now abuse...my son has been unforgiving in the truth that young parents have to learn how to parent while unlearning the patterns you spoke about. I feel punished because I was human and I bet Brandon’s mom feels the same way.
I want to start my business but I have the fear of failure & losing. I have huge home loan debts and I am comfortable with my salary from the job but the Job is also not very secure where I work. I want to start something on my own but I cannot due to fear, how do I overcome it.
hello from newfoundland canada feeling about 6-7...my 8 year old has autism this last week his days,nights are so mixed up ...i no its not his fault but dam its hard trying to get him back on track
So if you are a parent that is struggling with their adult child not living up to their expectations what do they need to do to accept their child's life decisions,? Asking for a friend. 😉
Mel, try to find some connections between different major religions on the planet. Why do religions have a strong driving force even today? And why Islam is the fastest growing religion? Do you know the factors which make people convert?
I just want to hug Brandon. I grew up in a home with both parents being verbally and emotionally abusive most of the time and it really does a number on you. I am almost 60 and still trying to get past the crap in my head.

@@roryp4844 So true Rory P! May God bless you and give you peace. Merry Christmas!!
@@anns1921 you too.... merry xmas
You should try therapy. Can you please tell me why your parents were abusive towards you while growing up?
I love, that Mel does not push to make peace with his dad and instead suggest to make boundaries... Best wishes and success for this awesome boy! Love him too - good luck for you Brendon, you are very brave!
So true

It sounds like your dad is picky, judgmental, critical and spoiled. You should try therapy.
That was amazing. I felt like I could really relate to Brandon, and felt like giving him a hug.
Same here!! Struggling with anger is so painful but its not a problem that is sympathetic to most people.
What you said about accepting yourself with your actions - that was mindblowing, something so important and so easy to miss.
Thank you ♥️
My son is going through a breakup and is having a hard time accepting why she is being so hurtful. Mel’s statement about not loving yourself in order to love others what spot on! I shared this with him and hope it will bring him a little understanding.
@Maj The Maj exactly. That's something that makes you start doing not just trying to be yourself in your own head.
Good luck!

10. Just living for today. Not thinking about "ïf only" (past) and "what if" (tomorrow).
People need other people to justify their existence+nobody can hurt your feelings and accordingly, you can't hurt theirs either.

Mel, your segment with Brandon broke my heart because I have a fractured relationship with my son and Brandon reminds me of him. I respect Brandon’s perspective but parenting norms have changed. What was discipline is now abuse...my son has been unforgiving in the truth that young parents have to learn how to parent while unlearning the patterns you spoke about. I feel punished because I was human and I bet Brandon’s mom feels the same way.

I want to start my business but I have the fear of failure & losing. I have huge home loan debts and I am comfortable with my salary from the job but the Job is also not very secure where I work. I want to start something on my own but I cannot due to fear, how do I overcome it.
Thank you xo

So if you are a parent that is struggling with their adult child not living up to their expectations what do they need to do to accept their child's life decisions,? Asking for a friend. 😉

Mel, try to find some connections between different major religions on the planet. Why do religions have a strong driving force even today? And why Islam is the fastest growing religion? Do you know the factors which make people convert?
