The “Let Them” theory by Mel Robbins has gone viral, but is it really the healthiest way to navigate relationships, boundaries, and personal peace? In this episode of Master Your Mind, Business, and Life, I’m unpacking why this simple mindset tool doesn’t resonate with me the way it does for others, and why it might actually create distance where connection is needed most.
We’ll explore:
✨ Why “letting them” can sometimes slip into apathy or disconnection.
✨ A spiritual lens: what Jesus and Buddha each teach us about response vs. detachment.
✨ The neuroscience of avoidance, and why our brains confuse detachment with safety.
✨ How to shift from passive boundaries to active, healthy ones.
✨ A practical Life Mastery Tip you can use today to move from reactive to responsive when people disappoint you.
This is a deeper conversation about boundaries, connection, and the messy middle of being human.
If you’ve ever wondered whether “ let them” is too simplistic for real-life… this one’s for you.
