Tony Robbins: The Fastest Way Out of Feeling Stuck! Use THIS 6-Part Decision Making Framework to Take the First Step and Start 2026 With Clarity

<p>Today, Jay sits down with Tony Robbins, world-renowned life and business strategist, bestselling author, and one of the most influential voices in personal development, for a conversation that goes far beyond motivation and into the mechanics of real change. Together, they explore why so many people feel stuck in their lives, emotionally, professionally, and spiritually and how that feeling is often rooted not in lack of ability, but in delayed or avoided decisions.</p> <p>Jay and Tony challenge modern ideas around comfort, self-care, and success. Tony shares why growth, not ease, is the true source of confidence and fulfillment, and why discipline and commitment build self-trust in ways comfort never can. Jay guides the discussion toward the balance between the science of achievement and the art of fulfillment, showing how success without meaning can feel empty, while meaning without action can leave people frustrated and stuck. Through practical frameworks, real-life stories, and honest reflection, the episode reframes discomfort as a necessary part of becoming who you&rsquo;re meant to be.</p> <p>Together they explore how purpose evolves over time, why contribution gives life its deepest meaning, and how fulfillment comes from growing and giving, not just achieving.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Stop Feeling Stuck by Making One Clear Decision</p> <p>How to Build Confidence Through Difficult Choices</p> <p>How to Create Clarity Without Waiting for Certainty</p> <p>How to Grow Instead of Chasing Comfort</p> <p>How to Strengthen Self-Trust Through Discipline</p> <p>How to Design a Life That Keeps You Growing</p> <p>If you&rsquo;re feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or stuck right now, let this be a reminder that nothing has gone wrong. You don&rsquo;t need to have everything figured out to move forward. You only need the courage to take the next step, even if it feels uncomfortable.</p> <p>Learn more and get your ticket at <a href="http://timetorisesummit.com">timetorisesummit.com</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Make 2026 Your Best Year Yet! Step-by-Step Blueprint to Turn Your 2026 Goals Into Visible Results

<p>This episode is about starting the year with clarity, by letting go of what no longer fits and building systems that support who you&rsquo;re becoming. Jay explores why most resolutions fade and explains that real change doesn&rsquo;t come from wishing harder or relying on motivation, but from aligning your inner world with structures that support the life you want to live.</p> <p>He shares how unfinished emotional chapters from the past year can quietly sabotage new beginnings, and why consciously closing one season is essential before stepping into the next. By releasing what no longer serves you, you create the mental and emotional space needed to move forward with focus and intention, rather than carrying old weight into a new year.</p> <p>Instead of fixating on rigid goals, Jay encourages choosing a single word to guide your energy, one that reflects who you&rsquo;re becoming, not just what you want to achieve. He reframes success as an inside-out process, emphasizing growth over outcomes and systems over wishlists. From designing habits that match your vision to shaping an environment that makes discipline easier, he shows how manifestation becomes practical when your daily actions, calendar, and beliefs are aligned.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Let Go of What&rsquo;s Still Holding You Back</p> <p>How to Focus on Growth Instead of Goals</p> <p>How to Build Systems That Make Success Inevitable</p> <p>How to Design Your Environment for Better Habits</p> <p>How to Work With Fear Instead of Fighting It</p> <p>How to Become the Person Your Dreams Require</p> <p>As you step into this next chapter, remember that real change isn&rsquo;t created in a single moment of motivation, it&rsquo;s built through small, intentional choices made consistently. You just need to be willing to show up, learn, and keep moving forward even when it feels uncomfortable.&nbsp;</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Jay’s Must-Listens: 4 Powerful Lessons to Reflect From This Year &amp; Move Into the Next With Clarity &amp; Inspiration ft. Dr. Orna &amp; Novak Djokovic

<p>Today, we reflect on the moments that shaped us, challenged us, and quietly transformed us over the past year. Not just the highlights, but the heartbreaks, the pauses, the uncomfortable in-between seasons that forced us to grow in ways we didn&rsquo;t fully understand at the time. In this special end-of-year compilation, you&rsquo;ll hear powerful, deeply human insights from voices like Selena Gomez, Cardi B, Madonna, Novak Djokovic, Mel Robbins, Codie Sanchez, and more. Each conversation reveals how love, loss, pressure, purpose, spirituality, money, and self-belief intersect in real life, and why growth so often comes from moments we never would have chosen.</p> <p>You&rsquo;ll hear Selena and Benny reflect on how love grows through safety, patience, and showing up imperfectly. Cardi B opens up about depression, heartbreak, and how time, accountability, and resilience helped her reclaim her power. Madonna shares why cultivating an internal, spiritual life is essential in a noisy, distracted world, while Novak Djokovic explores the tension between ambition, self-worth, and purpose even at the peak of success. Mel Robbins challenges us to reclaim our energy by letting go of other people&rsquo;s opinions, and Codie Sanchez reframes money, risk, and opportunity as skills that can be learned rather than fears to avoid. Together, these conversations remind us that growth isn&rsquo;t linear, healing takes time, and the most meaningful progress begins when we listen inward, protect our energy, and move forward with intention.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Turn Hard Seasons Into Personal Growth</p> <p>How to Build Love Through Vulnerability and Safety</p> <p>How to Heal After Heartbreak Without Rushing the Process</p> <p>How to Embrace Failure as a Starting Point, Not an Ending</p> <p>How to Let Go of Other People&rsquo;s Opinions and Reclaim Your Energy</p> <p>How to Build Resilience Through Accountability and Time</p> <p>How to Move Forward With Purpose, Not Pressure</p> <p>Give yourself permission to heal at your own pace, to learn without shame, and to start again as many times as you need. Protect your energy, listen to what truly matters to you, and trust that small, intentional steps create meaningful change over time.&nbsp;</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty.</p> <p><strong>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Rob Dial: Want to Actually Achieve Your Goals in 2026? Use THIS Action-Based Goal System to Get Back on Track (Even If You Fall Off!)

<p>Jay sits down with Rob Dial for a powerful conversation about discipline, purpose, and why so many people stay stuck even when they know exactly what they should do. Rob reframes discipline not as punishment or pressure, but as an act of self-respect, explaining why choosing discomfort today is often the deepest form of self-love. From building consistency to reshaping identity, he reveals why real change has nothing to do with motivation or willpower, and everything to do with designing a life where doing the right thing becomes automatic.</p> <p>Drawing from his own journey, Rob shares hard-earned lessons on following curiosity, embracing failure, and staying consistent long before results appear. He challenges the idea that purpose is something you &ldquo;find&rdquo; all at once, offering instead a more grounded path&mdash;one built through action, experimentation, and committing fully to the season you&rsquo;re in. Together, Jay and Rob explore how fear, past pain, and self-judgment quietly hold people back, and how small, imperfect steps can begin healing old wounds while building confidence, competence, and momentum in the present.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Build Discipline When Motivation Disappears&nbsp;</p> <p>How to Stay Consistent Even When You Fall Off Track</p> <p>How to Focus on One Habit for 100 Days</p> <p>How to Design Your Environment for Better Habits</p> <p>How to Turn Discipline Into Self-Love</p> <p>How to Not Quit Even When You Don&rsquo;t See Results&nbsp;</p> <p>How to Make 2026 Your Best Year by Doing Less, Not More</p> <p>Focus on what you can control today. Do one thing well. Create habits that support the person you want to become, and be patient with yourself as you grow into them.</p> <p>If You Listen to <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/706hylM6zaDW8LrrYxcggQ">The Mindset Mentor with Rob Dial</a> on your favorite podcast app.</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Jahnavi: How to Create Inner Calm When Life Feels Overwhelming (THIS Simple Daily Practice When Your Mind Won't Stop!)

<p>Today, Jay sits down with longtime friend and Grammy-nominated devotional artist Jahnavi Harrison for a deeply personal conversation about faith, creativity, and living a life of service. Together, they reflect on spiritual grounding as a daily practice, not rooted in perfection but in the ability to remain steady through uncertainty and change.</p> <p>Jay and Jahnavi explore the often unseen journey behind purpose-driven work, how passion gradually becomes discipline, and discipline shapes a life of devotion. They unpack the courage it takes to walk a less conventional path, especially in a world that often values conformity and external validation. Through stories of growing up between two worlds, wrestling with self-expression, and finding healing through music and mantra, they invite us to reconsider success not as achievement, but as alignment.</p> <p>As the conversation unfolds, their focus turns to prayer, service, and staying connected when you feel lost. Jay and Jahnavi share why speaking to God, serving others, and creating space for vulnerability can become powerful anchors during difficult seasons. Ultimately, this conversation reminds us that spirituality isn&rsquo;t about having everything figured out, it&rsquo;s about showing up with sincerity, listening deeply, and choosing to give, even when the path ahead is unclear.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Find Peace Through Sacred Sound</p> <p>How to Stay Grounded When Life Feels Overwhelming</p> <p>How to Turn Doubt Into a Deeper Faith</p> <p>How to Express Yourself When You Feel Invisible</p> <p>How to Trust Your Intuition Over External Pressure</p> <p>How to Integrate Spirituality Into Everyday Life</p> <p>How to Reconnect With Purpose Through Service</p> <p>How to Talk to God in Your Own Way</p> <p>You are allowed to take your time, to find your voice in your own way, and to choose a path that feels meaningful rather than impressive. Healing and purpose don&rsquo;t come from perfection, but from showing up sincerely and trusting that what you offer with love will return in its own time.</p> <p><strong><em>Check out Jahnavi&rsquo;s Grammy nominated album Into the Forest </em></strong><a href="https://www.jahnavimusic.com/music/into-the-forest"><strong><em>here</em></strong></a><strong><em>.</em></strong></p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

<p>Today, Jay welcomes the legendary James Cameron. Award-winning filmmaker, explorer, and innovator known for pushing the boundaries of storytelling and technology, to explore the inner world behind one of the most influential storytellers of our time.

He opens up about being fired early in his career, the constraints that led to creating The Terminator, and why commitment often requires choosing conviction over comfort.

ALEX WARREN: The Hidden Battles Behind His Historic Rise - Overcoming Self-Doubt, Healing Childhood Wounds &amp; Learning to Finally Feel Enough

<p>Today, Jay sits down with Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Alex Warren for an extremely open and honest conversation about loss, resilience, and turning pain into purpose. Alex opens up about losing both of his parents at a young age, growing up in instability, and being forced to parent himself while he was still just a kid. Through stories of grief, homelessness, and survival, he reflects on how these early experiences shaped his worldview, his faith, and his relentless drive to keep going when everything around him felt uncertain. What emerges is a powerful reminder that our hardest chapters often become the foundation of our greatest strength.</p> <p>Alex shares how music became his lifeline, a way to articulate emotions he couldn&rsquo;t put into words and a place to process loss without running from it.

Confidence Expert Dr. Shadé Zahrai: Feel Like You’re Not Enough? THIS Proven 4 Part Framework Will Transform Your Self-Image &amp; Build REAL Confidence

<p>Today, Jay sits down with Dr. Shad&eacute; Zahrai to explore how self-doubt quietly influences our decisions, and what it takes to rebuild trust in ourselves. Shad&eacute; unpacks the psychology behind impostor syndrome, fear of failure, and the inner stories that convince people they&rsquo;re not ready or not enough. Together, they examine how the brain&rsquo;s need for certainty drives worst-case thinking, and why that protective instinct often keeps us stuck, even when opportunity is right in front of us.</p> <p>Shad&eacute; offers grounded frameworks, from shifting &ldquo;should&rdquo; into &ldquo;could&rdquo; to create more possibility, to designing simple action plans that help regain a sense of control when things feel overwhelming. Shad&eacute; reflects on purpose, care, and leaving people better than we found them, while Jay highlights that trusting yourself doesn&rsquo;t mean never experiencing doubt. Together, they explore how self-image is shaped by the feedback we internalize, why criticism tends to linger longer than praise, and how healing emotional &ldquo;scars&rdquo; allows us to move forward without self-sabotage.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Trust Yourself Again</p> <p>How to Stop Letting Self-Doubt Inform Your Decisions</p> <p>How to Reframe Impostor Syndrome as Growth</p> <p>How to Turn Fear Into Forward Action</p> <p>How to Shift From &ldquo;Should&rdquo; to &ldquo;Could&rdquo;</p> <p>How to Take Action When You Feel Stuck</p> <p>How to Heal the Self-Image Behind the Self-Doubt</p> <p>Confidence isn&rsquo;t the absence of fear; it&rsquo;s the willingness to move forward even when fear is present.

CHRIS HEMSWORTH EXCLUSIVE: The Untold Story of His Anxiety, Fear of Failure &amp; The Diagnosis That Changed Everything

<p><em>**This interview was filmed on November 29th, prior to the heartbreaking and tragic events in Bondi over the weekend. Our hearts are with everyone in Australia during this incredibly difficult time.</em></p> <p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;__________</p> <p>Today, Jay travels to Australia to sit down with Chris Hemsworth at the Crystalbrook Byron, not the superhero the world knows, but the grounded, introspective man shaped by his upbringing in the Australian outback. Chris opens up about his early years living in an Indigenous community, the adventures that sparked his imagination, and the strong family roots that still keep him centered. Jay explores how those moments from Chris&rsquo;s childhood laid the foundation for the man he is today.</p> <p>Chris opens up about the pressure and anxiety he faced in the early stages of his acting career and how the pursuit of excellence often came at the cost of inner peace. He talks about the constant pull between ambition and being present, the balance of preparation and surrendering to the creative process and the grounding force of lifelong friendships.&nbsp;</p> <p>In one of the most personal moments of the conversation, Chris talks about learning of his father&rsquo;s Alzheimer&rsquo;s diagnosis and how it changed his relationship with time, family, and legacy. He reflects on the emotional experience of documenting their journey together, navigating memory loss, caregiving, vulnerability, and the urgency it created to slow down and show up fully for the people who matter most.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Stay Present in a High-Pressure Career</p> <p>How to Reconnect With Your Childhood Self</p> <p>How to Build True, Grounding Friendships</p> <p>How to Be Fully There for Aging Parents</p> <p>How to Slow Down and Be Intentional With Your Time</p> <p>How to Balance Ambition With Inner Peace</p> <p>How to Bring More Curiosity Into Relationships</p> <p>We forget sometimes that the best parts of life aren&rsquo;t about achievement or perfection. They&rsquo;re about being present, staying connected, and having the courage to show up. Every challenge and moment of doubt is a chance to look inward and reconnect with what really matters.</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Feel Like Everyone Else Is “Ahead” of You? This is How You Rebuild Your Life at Any Stage &amp; Start Trusting Your Timeline

<p>In this episode, Jay explores the pressure of the &ldquo;social clock,&rdquo; that unspoken timeline that tells us when we should<em> </em>reach certain life milestones. He unpacks research revealing that we&rsquo;re never truly &ldquo;late,&rdquo; we&rsquo;re simply measuring our progress against someone else&rsquo;s schedule. Jay explains that the fear of falling behind is really a fear of losing control, and he shares how reclaiming that sense of control is far more important than hitting every milestone on time.</p> <p>He also unpacks the career anxiety so many people are experiencing today. With frequent job changes and a longer phase of &ldquo;emerging adulthood,&rdquo; he reminds us that feeling lost or stuck isn&rsquo;t a sign of failure, it&rsquo;s a sign that you&rsquo;re still exploring. Jay reflects on what purpose truly means, and why your purpose isn&rsquo;t a job title or income level but the deeper reason behind everything you do.</p> <p>Finally, Jay explores age, growth, and possibility, reminding us that the brain can rewire itself at any stage of life and that happiness often follows a U-shaped curve. If you feel like you&rsquo;re in a low point, you may actually be standing right before the rise.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Stop Living by the Social Clock</p> <p>How to Feel In Control of Your Life Again</p> <p>How to Navigate Career Changes with Confidence</p> <p>How to Redefine Purpose Beyond Your Job</p> <p>How to Build Relationships That Truly Support You</p> <p>How to Grow Even When You Feel &ldquo;Behind&rdquo;</p> <p>You&rsquo;re not late.

Chani explains that astrology isn&rsquo;t about predicting your future, it&rsquo;s about noticing your patterns, understanding yourself, and making choices with more awareness. She shares her own stories about finding her calling, meeting her partner, and the ways astrology can reaffirm the truth people already sense within themselves. Together, they unpack common misconceptions about compatibility, Mercury retrograde, and so-called &ldquo;bad signs,&rdquo; offering a more compassionate, practical way to work with timing without giving up responsibility for your life.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Use Astrology to Find Your Purpose</p> <p>How to Work With Your Saturn Return</p> <p>How to Navigate Tough Life Cycles With Awareness</p> <p>How to Use Astrology to Choose the Right Moment</p> <p>How to Strengthen Self-Agency Through Astrology</p> <p>How to Release a Difficult Year and Reset Intentionally</p> <p>As you move forward, remember that life isn&rsquo;t asking you to have everything figured out, it&rsquo;s simply asking you to stay curious, stay honest, and stay connected to what feels true within you.

Addicted to Scrolling? 3 Small Changes to STOP Feeling Drained After Scrolling Social Media

<p>What time of day do you scroll the most?</p> <p>Have you tried setting limits on your screen time?</p> <p>Today, Jay dives into one of the defining questions of our digital age: is the algorithm shaping who we become, or are we the ones quietly teaching it how to shape us? He reveals how every click, pause, and late-night scroll acts as a subtle signal, tiny instructions that train the system, which then turns around and begins to train us. Before we even realize it, our insecurities become fuel, our curiosity becomes comparison, and outrage becomes entertainment.</p> <p>But Jay also reminds us that we&rsquo;re not powerless, our agency hasn&rsquo;t disappeared; it&rsquo;s just buried beneath layers of habit. With calm, practical guidance, he shares how we can take our feed back into our own hands, break the doom-scroll cycle, and actually reprogram the digital environment influencing our minds. Whether it&rsquo;s choosing who you follow more intentionally, setting healthy boundaries in the morning, sharing more consciously, or reconnecting with real-world anchors, Jay shows that we&rsquo;re not just participants, we&rsquo;re contributors to how the system works. And when we change how we show up, everything around us begins to shift as well.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Retrain Your Algorithm in Minutes</p> <p>How to Recognize When the Algorithm Is Steering You</p> <p>How to Build a Healthier, Calmer Feed</p> <p>How to Use Social Media Without Losing Yourself</p> <p>How to Strengthen Your Digital Self-Control</p> <p>You weren&rsquo;t meant to be overwhelmed by noise or pulled into constant comparison. You were built to create a life rooted in values, peace, and purpose. So take a breath, make one mindful choice at a time, and let it guide the next.</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Roxie Nafousi: Struggle With Low Self-Worth &amp; No Confidence? (Use This Life-Changing 3-Step Method!)

<p>What&rsquo;s been making you doubt yourself lately?</p> <p>What do you think triggered that feeling?</p> <p>Today, Jay welcomes back his friend Roxie Nafousi to unpack what confidence actually looks and feels like, not the glossy, loud, performative version, but the quiet inner knowing that you are enough as you are. They start by breaking down how much of our insecurity comes from the stories we tell ourselves: the overthinking before we walk into a room, the mental replay after we walk out, and the way we let validation, or the lack of it, shape our worth.</p> <p>Roxie then opens up about something she&rsquo;s never shared publicly: her long struggle with body dysmorphic disorder. She talks honestly about the thoughts that dominated her life, the fear of being seen, and the belief that changing her appearance would quiet the constant self-criticism. Jay meets her with compassion as they unpack how these patterns form, how they shape the way you move through the world, and how healing begins with learning to speak to yourself with empathy instead of judgment.</p> <p>Jay and Roxie offer a roadmap that anyone can follow: mastering your inner voice, letting go of the pressure to be liked by everyone, celebrating the small wins, and choosing to show up as the version of yourself your higher self would be proud of.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Redefine Confidence From the Inside Out</p> <p>How to Stop Seeking External Validation&nbsp;</p> <p>How to Manage Comparison Before It Controls You</p> <p>How to Think Like Your Higher Self</p> <p>How to Break Free From People-Pleasing</p> <p>How to Handle Rejection Without Blaming Yourself</p> <p>How to Replace Self-Criticism With Self-Awareness</p> <p>When you start choosing compassion over judgment, intention over fear, and growth over perfection, you slowly reconnect with the part of yourself that&rsquo;s always been there. The journey isn&rsquo;t about becoming someone new, it&rsquo;s about finally seeing who you&rsquo;ve been all along.</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

8 Simple Mindset Shifts to Feel Gratitude Even When Your Life Isn’t Where You Want it To Be

<p>In this episode, Jay talks about a side of gratitude we rarely acknowledge, the kind that isn&rsquo;t shiny or uplifting, but the kind that helps when life feels heavy, complicated, or far from what you expected. He explains how, for years, he treated gratitude like something meant to fix pain or override his feelings, and how that mindset only added pressure instead of bringing any real peace.</p> <p>Jay talks about what real gratitude actually feels like,&nbsp; not the kind that tries to cancel out your struggles, but the kind that can sit beside them. He shares how acknowledging both things at once, what hurts and what&rsquo;s still good, builds real resilience. Jay breaks down why phrases like &ldquo;at least&hellip;&rdquo; shut your feelings down, while using &ldquo;even though&hellip;&rdquo; or &ldquo;and&hellip;&rdquo; keeps you present with your emotions instead of pushing them away.</p> <p>Jay also shares the small, practical habits that help him reconnect with gratitude when it feels far away: paying attention to what stayed instead of what disappeared, taking 10-second pauses to notice something good in the moment, borrowing someone else&rsquo;s joy when you can&rsquo;t access your own, and writing a thank-you note to the version of you who got through the harder seasons.</p> <p>Jay reminds us that gratitude isn&rsquo;t supposed to hide what&rsquo;s hard, it&rsquo;s meant to help you steady yourself. It&rsquo;s the quiet admission: &ldquo;Life is messy, and there&rsquo;s still something I can hold onto.&rdquo;</p> <p>In this episode, you&rsquo;ll learn:&nbsp;</p> <p>How to Stop Using Gratitude to Mask Your Feelings</p> <p>How to Hold Pain and Gratitude Together</p> <p>How to Notice What Stayed, Not What Left</p> <p>How to Use 10-Second Pauses to Reset</p> <p>How to Borrow Gratitude When You Can&rsquo;t Feel It</p> <p>How to Thank the You Who Survived&nbsp;</p> <p>You&rsquo;re not doing gratitude wrong, you&rsquo;re just learning to do it honestly. Keep showing up with awareness, gentleness, and patience. You&rsquo;re not rebuilding from zero, you&rsquo;re rebuilding from experience.</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty.</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Divorce Lawyer James Sexton: #1 Conversation Every Couple Should Have Before it’s Too Late (Use THIS 3-Step Script TODAY!)

<p>What do you need from a partner that you haven&rsquo;t been getting?</p> <p>How can someone show up for you in a way that meets that need?</p> <p>Today, Jay sits down with renowned divorce attorney and author James Sexton for a conversation that redefines what it means to love and be loved. With over twenty-five years spent guiding couples through heartbreak and separation, James has witnessed both the beauty and the brutality of human connection. Together, he and Jay explore the paradox of marriage: how something that begins with so much hope can unravel through silence, misunderstanding, and unmet needs. James shares that the greatest threat to relationships isn&rsquo;t cheating or money, it&rsquo;s disconnection: the slow fading of curiosity, gratitude, and presence that turns partners into strangers.</p> <p>Jay and James invite listeners to look past the fairytale version of romance and into the real work of partnership. They talk about how we&rsquo;re taught to plan weddings rather than marriages, and why the most meaningful moments come from small, steady acts of care, not grand romantic gestures. Whether it&rsquo;s remembering to replace a partner&rsquo;s favorite granola or reaching for their hand without being asked, James shows that a strong marriage isn&rsquo;t about avoiding conflict, but about staying close even in the uncomfortable moments. He reminds us that love isn't for the faint of heart. It&rsquo;s an act of courage, one that asks for honesty, vulnerability, and the discipline to keep showing up, especially when it&rsquo;s hardest.</p> <p>The conversation becomes less about divorce and more about what love is really made of. Jay and James uncover how relationships can serve as mirrors, revealing our insecurities, our longing to be seen, and our deepest fears of unworthiness. They remind us that to truly love another person, we must also learn to love ourselves, flaws, imperfections, and all.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Stay Connected in Love</p> <p>How to Keep the Spark Alive in Marriage</p> <p>How to Recognize When Disconnection Begins</p> <p>How to Argue Without Breaking the Bond</p> <p>How to Rebuild Trust After Betrayal</p> <p>How to Talk About Difficult Topics with Compassion</p> <p>How to Choose Courage Over Comfort in Relationships</p> <p>Whether you&rsquo;re married, single, healing, or starting over, this episode is a masterclass in emotional intelligence, offering timeless wisdom on how to nurture connection, protect what matters, and find courage in the vulnerability that love demands.&nbsp;</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Jay &amp; Radhi Talk About Icks vs. Red Flags (How to ACTUALLY Know the Difference)

<p>In this fun and unfiltered episode, Jay and Radhi dive into the world of &ldquo;icks,&rdquo; those oddly specific little turn-offs that make us cringe for reasons we can&rsquo;t quite explain. From baby voices and socks with sandals to the blurry line between confidence and cockiness, they laugh their way through the most random dating deal-breakers and what they secretly reveal about us. Amid the jokes, they slip in a few truth bombs too, like how we sometimes use icks to avoid real vulnerability. It&rsquo;s light, hilarious, and uncomfortably relatable, because honestly, we&rsquo;ve all had an ick&hellip; and we&rsquo;ve definitely been someone else&rsquo;s.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Tell the Difference Between an Ick and a Red Flag</p> <p>How to Communicate Honestly About What Bothers You</p> <p>How to Recognize When You&rsquo;re Using an Ick as an Excuse</p> <p>How to Appreciate Imperfections in the People You Love</p> <p>It&rsquo;s easy to get caught up in small things that bother us, but true connection isn&rsquo;t built on perfection, it&rsquo;s built on patience, humor, and understanding.

6 Lessons I Wish I Knew in My 20’s &amp; 30’s (This Will INSTANTLY Give You Direction!)

<p>What&rsquo;s one thing you wish you learned earlier in life?</p> <p>What do you think would&rsquo;ve changed for you if you learned it sooner?</p> <p>Today, Jay reflects on the lessons he wishes he&rsquo;d learned in his twenties and thirties, wisdom shaped by mistakes, growth, and years of inner work. He opens up about how easy it is to get swept up in chasing outcomes or living for other people&rsquo;s expectations, and how those patterns can quietly pull us away from our true path. Jay also explains why success and happiness are completely different skill sets, and how understanding that early on can save you years of unnecessary frustration.</p> <p>Jay also talks honestly about what healing really feels like, the side no one prepares you for. He explains that growth doesn&rsquo;t always look inspiring; sometimes it shows up as exhaustion, confusion, or feeling like everything is falling apart. But that discomfort is often just old patterns breaking down so new ones can take shape. Through empathy, personal stories, and practical insights, Jay walks us through the &ldquo;decade of firsts,&rdquo; from first jobs to first heartbreaks, and reminds us that feeling lost isn&rsquo;t failure. It&rsquo;s a natural part of becoming someone stronger, clearer, and more aligned with who you&rsquo;re meant to be.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Hear Your Inner Voice Again</p> <p>How to Define Success on Your Own Terms</p> <p>How to Build Confidence Through Self-Trust</p> <p>How to Turn Rejection Into Insight</p> <p>How to Break Free From Others&rsquo; Expectations</p> <p>How to Heal Even When It Feels Messy</p> <p>You&rsquo;re not behind, you&rsquo;re growing at the pace your life is asking you to grow.

Emma Grede: #1 Trick Successful People Use Every Day (THIS Will Open Doors You Didn’t Know Existed!)

<p>What&rsquo;s one habit that&rsquo;s helped you succeed lately?</p> <p>What made you decide to stick with that habit?</p> <p>In this special live conversation, at The Theater at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, Jay sits down with entrepreneur and industry leader Emma Grede for a conversation every builder, creator, and business-minded thinker needs to hear. Together, Jay and Emma unpack a challenge that holds so many talented people back, caring too much about what others think. Emma shares the early moments in her career when she stayed quiet in rooms where she deserved to speak, the times she underestimated her own value, and the double standards she had to navigate as a woman in business. This episode is a powerful reminder that confidence isn&rsquo;t something you wait to feel, it&rsquo;s something you build through action, decision-making, and showing up for the opportunities in front of you.</p> <p>As the conversation deepens, Emma shares the mindsets that shaped her path, from a kid obsessed with fashion magazines to a visionary leader with a global reach. She breaks down why excellence starts with showing up fully in whatever role you&rsquo;re in, how competence is the foundation of real confidence, and why chasing &ldquo;passion&rdquo; isn&rsquo;t always the most strategic move. Jay adds powerful reflections on focus, leaning into your strengths, and accepting that you don&rsquo;t need to be great at everything to succeed. This is an honest and refreshing look at what it really takes to trust yourself, take bigger swings, and grow into the person you&rsquo;re meant to be.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Stop Caring What Others Think</p> <p>How to Build Confidence Through Competence</p> <p>How to Use Fear as Fuel, Not a Setback</p> <p>How to Become Excellent at What You&rsquo;re Doing Now</p> <p>How to Set Your Own Standards, Not Society&rsquo;s</p> <p>How to Start Before You Have It All Figured Out</p> <p>You don&rsquo;t have to wait until you feel fully ready, fully confident, or fully &ldquo;enough.&rdquo; Start where you are, use what you have, and trust that focus, effort, and self-belief will do more for your future than fear ever will.&nbsp;</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

KRIS JENNER: The Untold Story of Family, Love, and Forgiveness

<p>Today, Jay sits down with Kris Jenner for a raw and candid conversation about her roots, family, and the incredible lessons she&rsquo;s learned.

She shares how those early lessons in responsibility and perseverance laid the foundation for the life she would later build, both as a businesswoman and as the matriarch of a global family brand.</p> <p>Throughout their conversation, Kris speaks about her devotion to family, her faith, and her unshakable sense of gratitude. She reflects on the importance of being present in a fast-paced world that often glorifies busyness and distraction.

She talks about her daily prayers for guidance and peace, finding meaning even in moments of hardship, and choosing to lead with love, even when met with misunderstanding or pain.</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Lead with Gratitude Every Day</p> <p>How to Raise Ambitious but Grounded Kids</p> <p>How to Slow Down and Be Fully Present</p> <p>How to Build a Family Rooted in Love, Not Competition</p> <p>How to Balance Success with Inner Peace</p> <p>How to Protect Your Peace in a Noisy World</p> <p>Life has a way of reminding us that true success isn&rsquo;t measured by status or possessions, it&rsquo;s found in the quiet moments of gratitude, in the love we give, and in the peace we choose to protect. Each challenge we face holds a lesson, each chapter an invitation to grow with grace and faith.&nbsp;</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

How to Move On When You Still Miss Your Ex (4 Hard Truths That Will FINALLY Set You Free)

<p>What truth about the relationship have you been ignoring?</p> <p>What makes that truth hard for you to accept?</p> <p>Today, Jay opens up about one of the hardest things we go through, trying to get over someone we once loved. He reminds us that healing isn&rsquo;t about pretending we&rsquo;re okay or trying to move on too quickly. It&rsquo;s about realizing that what we often miss isn&rsquo;t the person themselves, but how we felt when we were with them: seen, loved, and alive. Jay gently walks us through why breakups hurt so deeply, how our minds are built for connection, and why finding closure really starts with reconnecting to ourselves.</p> <p>Jay also shares how to stop replaying the past and start finding your rhythm again. He reminds us that healing isn&rsquo;t about erasing the love, it&rsquo;s about learning from it. You don&rsquo;t need to have it all figured out today, you just need to take one small step back toward yourself. Because the real journey after a breakup isn&rsquo;t about getting over someone else, it&rsquo;s about remembering who you were before them, and discovering who you&rsquo;re becoming next.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Stop Romanticizing the Past</p> <p>How to Let Go When You Still Miss Them</p> <p>How to Rebuild Your Life After a Breakup</p> <p>How to Move On Without Losing Yourself</p> <p>How to Remember You Were Enough All Along</p> <p>You are not broken for still feeling; you are human for still caring. One day, the memories that hurt will simply remind you of how far you&rsquo;ve come. Keep showing up for yourself, because the love you&rsquo;re searching for begins with you.</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Gabrielle Bernstein: The Simple 4-Step Method to Heal Anxiety, Stop Overthinking, and Stop People-Pleasing for Good

<p>Have you been feeling anxious lately?</p> <p>Do you notice when your mind starts to spiral?</p> <p>Jay welcomes back his good friend and New York Times bestselling author Gabrielle Bernstein for a deep and inspiring conversation about true inner healing. Together, they unpack Gabby&rsquo;s latest book, Self-Help, which reimagines Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) as a practice anyone can bring into their daily life. Gabby shares how the parts of us we often judge, the anxious part, the perfectionist, the people-pleaser, the one who needs control, aren&rsquo;t our enemies. They&rsquo;re parts that have been trying to protect us, even if they sometimes get in the way.</p> <p>As the conversation unfolds, Jay and Gabby unpack why so many of us get caught in cycles of burnout, self-criticism, and emotional disconnection. Gabby shares her simple four-step &ldquo;check-in&rdquo; practice, a way to pause, look inward, and start building a kinder relationship with ourselves. Through this process, she explains, we can start to recognize our patterns, meet them with compassion and find peace even in the midst of life&rsquo;s noise.</p> <p>Together, they unpack powerful questions we can all relate to: Why is it easier to comfort others than ourselves? Could our inner critic actually be trying to protect us? And how can we set boundaries without losing our empathy or warmth?</p> <p>In this interview, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Befriend Every Part of Yourself</p> <p>How to Recognize Your Inner Protectors</p> <p>How to Heal Through Compassion, Not Control</p> <p>How to Calm Your Inner Critic</p> <p>How to Create Boundaries Without Guilt</p> <p>How to Self-Soothe When You Feel Triggered</p> <p>Healing doesn&rsquo;t mean fixing what&rsquo;s broken, it means learning to see every part of yourself with compassion and curiosity. The parts of you that once felt heavy or hard to love are often the same ones that carried you through the toughest moments.&nbsp;</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Psychic Medium Laura Lynne Jackson: 3 Signs From the Universe You Have Been Missing (The Answers Are Right in Front of You!)

<p>Do you believe the universe sends us signs?</p> <p>Have you ever noticed a pattern that felt meaningful?</p> <p>Today, Jay welcomes back psychic medium and bestselling author Laura Lynne Jackson for another heartfelt and eye-opening conversation about what it really means to live a guided life. Laura introduces the idea of a &ldquo;team of light,&rdquo; a loving energy made up of God, spirit guides, and loved ones who&rsquo;ve passed on, all working together behind the scenes to help us find clarity and purpose. Laura reminds us that those small signs and coincidences we tend to overlook are actually gentle messages of love, nudging us toward peace, meaning, and connection.</p> <p>Together, Jay and Laura explore how to tell the difference between the loud voice of fear and the quiet, steady voice of intuition. They talk about how fear can sometimes sound logical, how doubt sneaks in when we&rsquo;re trying to trust ourselves, and why tuning in to that deeper inner knowing can transform the way we move through life. Jay opens up about moments when he&rsquo;s felt guided and protected, sharing powerful examples of how trusting what we can&rsquo;t always see can lead to the most meaningful outcomes.</p> <p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p> <p>How to Tell the Difference Between Fear and Intuition</p> <p>How to Trust the Guidance You Receive</p> <p>How to Quiet the Monkey Mind</p> <p>How to Strengthen Your Spiritual Connection Every Day</p> <p>How to Turn Coincidences into Clarity</p> <p>How to Use Intuition to Make Better Decisions</p> <p>Life often speaks in whispers before we&rsquo;re ready to listen. The signs, the coincidences, those gentle nudges, they&rsquo;re all reminders that we&rsquo;re never really walking alone. When we slow down, take a breath, and learn to trust that quiet pull within, the path ahead starts to reveal itself with more ease, clarity, and purpose.</p> <p>With Love and Gratitude,</p> <p>Jay Shetty</p> <p><strong><em>Join over 750,000 people to receive my most transformative wisdom directly in your inbox every single week with my free newsletter.

Jay shares surprising research showing that more men than ever report having few or no close friends and opens up about his own journey of maintaining meaningful male friendships across continents. Together, he and Radhi explore how cultural conditioning and social expectations have shaped the way men connect, often through shared activities rather than emotional honesty, and why vulnerability can still feel risky for so many.</p> <p>Through humor and genuine reflection, Jay and Radhi invite us to rethink what friendship really means, how we can create spaces of emotional safety, and build communities that feel like home.
