Mel Robbins has caught the nation’s attention with her ‘Let Them’ Theory. It’s simple, it’s empowering and it’s not as one-size-fits-all as people want to make it.

This week, Stephanie and Maren bring opposing views on “Let Them”, which opens up a world of discussions and several thought provoking examples. The essential aspect for leaders is how they use their own experience of sitting on opposite sides of the fence to uplevel the traditional right/wrong/good/bad argument to a higher place of inspiration.

Covering everything from understanding when ‘Let Them’ is your best path (and when it’s not, hint: if your decision is a reaction, it’s not your best path), to how to move from reaction to inspiration, today’s podcast is filled with gold.

People are finally learning not to take things personally or try to control every little thing (and person) in life, and applying ‘let them’ everywhere also has a downside. Instead of making it right or wrong, Maren & Stephanie explore a little microcosm that beautifully illustrates how to step into a higher option.

“We're so literal that we don't tend to make space for another perspective or another thought, and if there is any space, we tend to fill it with assumptions.” ~ Stephanie J. Allen

“Most of the time, people stop being reactive because I'm not being reactive, because I'm coming from inspiration instead. And that is a really cool place to be.” ~ Maren Oslac
