The Mel Robbins Podcast

This is one of the single best conversations ever had on the podcast. 

Today, in honor of Dr. Jim Doty, Mel is sharing this episode on manifestation, neuroscience, and what’s truly possible when you unlock the power of your mind and heart.

Dr. Doty was truly an extraordinary human being who lived an extraordinary life.

He was a world-renowned Stanford neurosurgeon and neuroscientist, a New York Times bestselling author, a philanthropist, and the founder of the Stanford Center for Compassion and Altruism Research. He also served as the chairman of the Dalai Lama Foundation.

Dr. Doty recently passed away, and this conversation – recorded before his death — is part of his legacy. It is one of the most shared, listened to, and beloved episodes in the history of the podcast.

In it, he explains the science behind manifesting and visualization: why it works, what’s happening in your brain, and how to do it effectively.

He also dives deep into the science behind creating the life you want, explains why your negative self-talk is holding you back, and how you can reprogram your brain using simple yet powerful tools rooted in neuroscience.

Whether you’ve heard this episode before or it’s your first time, Mel invites you to listen to this episode and to honor Dr. Doty by carrying his wisdom forward. 

His words will open your mind to the extraordinary possibilities of your life.

#1 Neurosurgeon: How to Manifest Anything You Want & Unlock the Unlimited Power of Your Mind (In Memory of Dr. Jim Doty)

In this episode, you’ll discover how your childhood shaped who you are today—and the hidden parenting mistakes that impact every relationship you have. 

You’ll also learn tools for excellent parenting and how to improve any relationship, including with your own parents, siblings, partner, kids, and friends. 

Joining Mel today is Dr. Aliza Pressman, PhD. Dr. Pressman is a world‑renowned developmental psychologist, professor at Mount Sinai, director of The Mount Sinai Parenting Center, and author of the New York Times bestseller The 5 Principles of Parenting. 

For over two decades, she’s been teaching parents practical science‑backed tools to raise emotionally healthy, resilient kids—and to become better, more grounded humans in the process. 

Today, Dr. Pressman breaks down 5 principles that will change how you parent forever. You’ll hear the research on how early experiences shape who you become, why oversacrificing for your kids backfires, and the surprising ways criticizing your partner or ex can quietly wound your child for life. 

You’ll also learn protocols for excellent parenting and how to improve relationships of all kinds, from setting boundaries that actually work, to repairing after you’ve lost your cool, to strengthening your child’s inner voice by changing the way you talk to yourself. 

This isn’t just about raising kids. It’s about learning how to be a better human (and raise one too). Whether you’re parenting toddlers, teenagers, or adult children—or simply trying to understand the impact your own parents had on you—this conversation will give you clear, actionable tools you can use immediately.

Try It For 1 Week: 3 Small Habits That Change Your Body, Energy, And Life

Today’s episode is a deeply honest conversation about what it takes to let go of mistakes, forgive yourself, leave your past in the past, and create a new version of you. 

In this moving episode, Mel sits down with her friend Carl Lentz, a former megachurch pastor, who watched his life implode in real time. 

Carl doesn’t dodge the truth: His actions shattered trust, cost him his career, and nearly destroyed his family. 

But this is not a story about scandal. 

It’s about what you do after the worst moment of your life. 

It’s about the courage to face what you’ve done, to stop running, to forgive yourself — and to rebuild something stronger from the wreckage. 

Carl doesn’t pretend to have it all figured out. What he offers is honesty without excuses, wisdom forged in pain, and a raw invitation to stop letting your past dictate your future. 

If you’ve made mistakes, if you’re struggling to forgive someone, if you're trying to put the pieces back together, this conversation will meet you right where you are. 

Because you are not your worst moment. 

And your next chapter is still yours to write.

How to Move On, Let Go of Past Mistakes, and Reinvent Yourself

This episode is your playbook for having saner, smarter, and more successful conversations, even when you disagree. 

If every dinner turns into a debate… 

If you feel like you're having the same argument on repeat… 

If you're avoiding certain topics, work events, or even your family and friends altogether… 

It might feel like your life is shrinking. And you’re not alone. People around the world are feeling the disconnect. 

That’s why Mel called in a world-class expert to give you the blueprint for finally getting through to other people without blowing up, backing down, or bottling it up. 

Today, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Charles Duhigg joins Mel to share science-backed strategies and tools to stop arguing and start connecting again, even when you completely disagree. 

Whether it’s politics, parenting, or that one comment that always sets you off, you’ll learn how to say what needs to be said and actually be heard. 

You’ll learn: 

-The #1 mistake that keeps arguments going (and how to break the cycle) 

-What to say when someone shuts down or refuses to budge 

-The single biggest mistake you make when you argue 

-How to change someone’s mind (yes, really). 

-Proven and simple scripts to disarm difficult people 

-The psychological secret that instantly shifts tense conversations 

Because your relationships depend on this. The right conversation, at the right time, with the right tools, is how things shift. That’s how connection happens. 

This is not about “agreeing to disagree.” It’s about knowing exactly what to say, so you can stay close to the people who matter most – and maybe even change their minds in the process.
