Who do you turn to when you need help or guidance in your life? In this episode, we discuss the irresistible pull of self-help gurus and why there’s only one right now who has absolutely met her moment - Mel Robbins.
Plus, we share our weekly recommendations. We’ve got books for you and something to put on your head while you're reading those books.
And, from terrible parenting choices, flat social batteries and musical theatre. It's our best & worst of the week.
