Seventeen years ago I was the first woman graduated as Aircraft Mechanic Engineer in my city (Brasilia, the capital of Brazil). I tried to get a job in my area but despite my passion and experience in aviation (in other areas), I never got the chance of going for that. Lots of sexism, lots of fear from all the managers of airlines to put the first new graduated at the runway. Then I had a very premature baby and left my career to be a 24/7 mom. Fast forward... it's 2024, I'm living in Canada and just finished my diploma equivalency in Aircraft Mechanic Engineer and finally, after 17 years I'm trying to get back to aviation and pick up from where I left. And everything I needed to listen I just listened from you on this podcast. Thank you. 🙏🏻 You have no idea how necessary you are in people's life.

My grammy moment would be celebrating a successful bakery business and buying my forever home at the age of 55. Single mom just trying to survive at the moment, but I have this seed planted in my mind that I can bake my way into a home thats my own, bought and paid for with my own sweat and tears and maybe a few burnt cookies. My whole life I've lived for my kids, my ex husband and everyone else around me. Sacrificed any notion of a career by marrying young and raising kids, one with autism, to be divorced at 45 and having to start over. I've floundered the past 8 years...trying to find my way but I think I know what I have to do now. Thank you Mel for this reminder, that I can and SHOULD do this!

I found your podcast a couple months ago, and I am currently at the end of my senior year in High School. Your podcast has been helping me stay focused every week and I thank you so much for that!!!

Darling Mel (and Friends), you have helped me so much! I absolutely love these metaphors relating to plants, flowers, trees! I am learning the importance of dropping my leaves in order to survive and thrive, as you explained so clearly in an earlier podcast. This image will be with me for the rest of my life and it completely reinforces some of the hardest lessons I am learning about living more fully. Thank you again and again!!
I am a professional gardener and want to share this little bit of info about tulips (also daffodils) in a vase, so to prevent drooping as long as possible. The stems need to be fully saturated with water all the way up to the bloom top. You can lay them flat in water in something the size of a casserole dish, or even turn them upside down and pour water into the stem. Then, placing your finger over the cut edge, turn the stem right-side up and place it in the vase. Try not to remove your fingertip until the cut edge is a little under the water in the vase. (This is similar to re-cutting certain flowers, roses in particular, under water to prevent air from sealing off the cellular structure of the stem.)
Placing the vase of spring blooms in the fridge at night will also lengthen the vase life of the flowers. Really hope this will be useful to you and your viewers.
We Love You Too Mel🌷❤🌷❤🌷❤

hi Mel. I’m 12 minutes into your video and I felt the desire to suggest something for you. Maybe a direction for your supplements or the first tier could be a multiple organic mushroom powder/capsule. Mushrooms are becoming huge presently. They have a lot of research out there that they help with everything from anti-cancer, which is incredible for women, especially women trying to prevent or heal breast cancer. And then you have your lions made mushrooms who have been proven to improve and heal Nuro transmitters and cognitive issues. With a little research you could create a multi mushroom capsule that would definitely improve the health, and lives of millions of women potentially.they even did a study in Asia that prove that women that even ate the most common Ulery mushrooms like button mushrooms. Once a week had half the breast cancer rates compared to women who never ate mushrooms. Best of luck with that! I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Fantastic! My Guides always indicate which videos to tune into each morning and today it was this one! Boom! Perfection! I have been deeply, deeply healing and transforming, learning, connecting with like minded and like hearted souls and I know my time is now. I hereby commit to stepping out and being of service in ever greater ways. Much love to you Mel, and this beautiful community! I love reading the comments! -Rebecca 💗

Dang, Mel Robbins, you did it again! Dragged myself onto the treadmill after another frustrating effort writing my novel. Felt really disheartened. Then wouldn’t you know it, I put on my headphones and hit play on your podcast and there you are reminding me not to give up. That the seed needs time to grow and to be patient. How did I ever get through life without you?? Thank you! 🥰

[AnaRangelYoga]
