Have you read? It's one of my personal faves!

About the book:
What if the key to happiness, success, and love was as simple as two words?

If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated with where you are, the problem isn't you. The problem is the power you give to other people. Two simple words—Let Them—will set you free. Free from the opinions, drama, and judgments of others. Free from the exhausting cycle of trying to manage everything and everyone around you. The Let Them Theory puts the power to create a life you love back in your hands—and this book will show you exactly how to do it.

In her latest groundbreaking book, The Let Them Theory, Mel Robbins—New York Times bestselling author and one of the world's most respected experts on motivation, confidence, and mindset—teaches you how to stop wasting energy on what you can't control and start focusing on what truly YOU. Your happiness. Your goals. Your life.

Using the same no-nonsense, science-backed approach that's made The Mel Robbins Podcast a global sensation, Robbins explains why The Let Them Theory is already loved by millions and how you can apply it in eight key areas of your life to make the biggest impact. Within a few pages, you'll realize how much energy and time you've been wasting trying to control the wrong things—at work, in relationships, and in pursuing your goals—and how this is keeping you from the happiness and success you deserve.

Sometimes we struggle to believe the words of Psalm 139:14: “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” When life has left us with scars—emotional or physical—it can feel easier to see brokenness than beauty.

But here’s the truth: God didn’t make a mistake with you. Every part of your story, even the hard chapters, is held in His hands. Learning to honor your worth may take time, but it starts with small choices—speaking kindly to yourself, resting when you’re weary, and surrounding yourself with voices that remind you of who you are in Christ. 💜

🌿 Today, give yourself permission to believe—even just a little—that you are wonderfully made.

Even in seasons where life feels heavy, setting aside time for love can be a holy act. 💕 Date nights aren’t just about dinner or flowers—they’re about reminding one another that beauty still exists, that hope still flickers in the darkness. Make the choice to cherish, to laugh, to hold on. We sure enjoyed our evening at Home Depot!

What’s one simple way you and your loved one carve out beauty together?

Did you ever think you'd hear someone say "Let's Fail"? But did you know that failure can be a good thing?

My mom recently moved to Heaven and I've been considering my memories of her and holding them close. 💗 The expectation that I will see her again is the beauty of HOPE!

Yesterday was GRANDPARENTS DAY and today we are making sure we don't forget to celebrate the quiet strength and steadfast love of grandparents. 💕 Their wisdom is a bridge between generations, their prayers often unseen but deeply felt. Grandparents remind us that legacy isn’t built in one moment—it’s nurtured in countless small acts of kindness, stories told, and faith shared.

If you’re blessed with grandparents still in your life, reach out today with gratitude. If yours are no longer here, honor their memory by living out the love they planted in you. 🌿

What’s one lesson or story from your grandparents that still shapes your life today?

It's LABOR DAY! A day we REST to celebrate our labors. When was the last time your soul felt truly at rest? God’s peace isn’t just a moment—it’s a way of living, even in the chaos. Take five deep breaths, and take a moment to pray and ask: “Lord, show me where I’m striving instead of abiding.”

What brings peace to your soul when life feels overwhelming?

Celebrate what makes you, YOU! What talents has the Creator gifted to you? Did you know that by encouraging these talents and not being afraid to confidently use them, you can bring praise to Him while also delighting in God-given joy?
