Conquer Overwhelm: Your Ultimate Guide to Inner Peace [ENCORE] | The Mel Robbins Podcast

(ticking clock) (upbeat music) There's a lot going on right now, and so I've made the decision to switch up our programming this week. Our show is syndicated in 194 countries and right now, there is a lot of conflict going on in regions around the world. And there has never been a better time to provide tools that will help you tap back into the power, and light, and love, and connection inside of you. And Dr. Thema is the person who can teach you how to do it. Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins podcast. There's a lot going on right now, and so I've made the decision to switch up our programming this week and re-run an episode that we did back in May that was called Six Signs You're Disconnected From Your Power and How to Get It Back: Life-Changing Advice from the Remarkable Dr. Thema Bryant. Now, that episode was extraordinary. It's been one of our most shared episodes since launching the Mel Robbins podcast, and in it, Dr. Thema Bryant, who is literally a walking treasure of a human being, she is discussing in this episode the process of Homecoming, which is how you overcome fear and trauma to reclaim your whole authentic self. Her book, Homecoming, which is now out in paperback, is a must-read. And as far as I'm concerned, this conversation with Dr. Thema was one of the most important conversations we've had in the first year of the Mel Robbins podcast. The reason why I'm replaying it right now is because I think you need to hear it. There are so many tools that will help you tap back into the power, and light, and love, and connection inside of you, and I decided to re-release this episode because I think the world really would benefit from listening to this. Our show is syndicated in 194 countries and right now, there is a lot of conflict going on in regions around the world. And there has never been a better time to provide tools, and hope, and small ways that you as an individual can empower yourself, and live in the truth, and also stay connected to light, and to love, and to connection. And Dr. Thema is the person who can teach you how to do it. She's a psychologist, a minister, a tenured professor at Pepperdine University. She's a New York Times best-selling author. In 2023, she was named the very first Black female president of the American Psychological Association. She completed her doctorate in clinical psychology at Duke University, and her post-doctoral training at Harvard Medical School's Victims of Violence Program. She says that no matter what's going on around you, you can always come back home to yourself, and that's what we're gonna talk about today. The six signs that you're disconnected from yourself, and most importantly, how you can start to reconnect. I hope you love this conversation as much as I did. I just re-listened to it, and I know it's exactly what you need right now. Dr. Thema Bryant's brand-new book, Homecoming: Overcome Fear and Trauma to Reclaim Your Whole Authentic Self.
