APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Profoundly simple yet very effective, Mel Robbins’ self-help guide champions the freedom of letting other adults live their lives their way. Born from a simple anecdote (her daughter telling her to stop micromanaging her son’s prom experience), the book is about accepting that you can’t control the thoughts and actions of other humans. Robbins goes further, though, concentrating just as much on how doing this for others is actually freeing for you. Through personal stories and the input of professionals, she drives home the point that life works much better when the focus stays on your own behaviours. That doesn’t mean ignoring things—instead, it means adjusting your own actions to make the best of any situation, no matter how dire. Robbins puts the power to moderate your reactions back where it belongs—within you.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Readers should put the energy they waste worrying about others' opinions toward leading more empowered lives, according to this upbeat guide. Motivational speaker Robbins (The High 5 Habit) outlines how accepting others for who they are and focusing instead on the actions one can take to improve things—what she calls the "let them/let me" method—helps reveal what's within one's control and how to manage one's actions accordingly. Those dealing with difficult family members, for example, should avoid trying to change their opinions ("Let your dad be your dad") and focus on building the "kind of relationship I want" with them, "based on the kind of person I want to be." Similarly, those struggling with the tendency to compare themselves to others should recognize that harping on someone else's advantages drains motivation for changing one's own life. In down-to-earth prose, the author lucidly distinguishes her theory from simply "letting go," noting that "accepting the reality of your situation doesn't mean you're surrendering to it" but rather releasing "control you never had." Robbins's fans will want to snap this up.

Accepting that this book seems to be written from a place of privilege, this is still a solid self help book that, with practice, could serve to reframe your mind.
Wow!
I was really timid about this book at first— how exactly can saying “Let Them” change my life? Now that I’ve completed it, it is safe to say that it’s not in “Let Them” that changes your life, it’s “Let Me”. The acknowledgment of the power I hold in my life is the thing that is going to change it. It’s the inspiration I needed to get off my high horse and see that the problem has, quite frankly, been me all along. It is our own responsibility to live our best lives and this can only happen if we let ourselves believe in the power of our dreams.
Thanks, Mel and Sawyer… pretty sure you’ve just changed my life 💕
