The Let Them Theory: A Life-Changing Tool That Millions of People Can't Stop Talking About by Mel Robbins and Sawyer Robbins

This week on Go Help Yourself, Lisa and Misty are joined by guest host Alisa Manjarrez to review the New York Times Bestseller The Let Them Theory: A Life-Changing Tool That Millions of People Can't Stop Talking About by Mel Robbins and Sawyer Robbins. The Let Them Theory is a HUGE book. It promises to "forever change the way you think about relationships, control, and personal power. Whether you want to advance your career, motivate others to change, take creative risks, find deeper connections, build better habits, start a new chapter, or simply create more happiness in your life and relationships, this book gives you the mindset and tools to unlock your full potential." And in this Let Them book review podcast, we cover all the ways we think this book does -- and doesn't -- deliver. Lisa also shares two articles that discuss some shortcomings of the theory, from The Cut and from Vox .
