After five years of podcasting with minimal fanfare, I finally asked myself: What makes the top podcasts so popular? Cue a deep dive into the world of Joe Rogan, sex talk shows, and the queen of life advice—Mel Robbins. In this episode, I explore how Mel went from anxious attorney to $48 million microphone mogul, why her style resonates, and what it reveals about today’s obsession with Life Coaches. I question the cult of confidence, share a few hard-earned truths from my own experience as an inventor and beauty industry vet, and ask—do we really need motivation, or just a little laughter and perspective? Let’s talk Body, Mel, and the BS we’ve all bought into.
