Episode notes
Reframing "I Love You"
- Mel Robbins reframes "I love you" as admiration and consideration rather than endorsement of actions.
- She uses the phrase to give listeners hope and remind them someone cares enough to offer help.
Control The Controllables
- Stop trying to control other people because you can't change their beliefs or actions for them.
- Use that freed energy to reduce stress and focus on what you can control: thoughts, actions, and emotional responses.
Back Off To Reduce Resistance
- When pressure and judgment fail, stop and recognize that your approach creates resistance.
- Back off and accept the reality, then choose a different, research-backed influence strategy.
