The ‘Let Them’ Theory

Are you exhausted from mentally policing everyone’s behavior—coworkers, strangers, even your own family? You’re not alone. In this episode of Sufferless, Tim Tamashiro breaks down The Let Them Theory—a powerful mindset shift made popular by Mel Robbins and her daughter Sawyer—and explores why trying to control others is secretly stealing your peace.

You’ll discover:

• Why your brain is wired to get triggered when people “don’t follow the rules”
• The surprising neuroscience behind control and reactivity
• A simple, daily practice called The Let Them Pause that helps you let go, feel lighter, and reclaim your calm
