Because if you're an overachiever like you or me, Derek, you believe that until you've done something worthy,

you don't get celebration, that it's the achievement that makes you worthy.

And see, I'm here to get humanity to understand that if you can drag yourself out of bed,

if you can stand before the mirror and still be breathing, you have survived all kinds of stuff

in your life. And you're still showing up here every day trying to do a little better,

that in and of itself makes you worthy and deserving of a high five.

Welcome to Good Money, where we believe money is not bad and good people should have more of it.

I'm your host, Derek Kinney.

If I could describe my guest today, in one word, it would be powerhouse. As an international best-selling

author and speaker, two millions, Mel Robbins brings the heat. From being $800,000 in debt, you heard

right, that's almost a million dollars to creating an almost too simple habit that is literally

changing the lives of millions of people. You will love Mel's incredible story. Mel shares the

simple secret to stop spending money on things you don't need. How to get the courage to get paid

more in the exact steps to create a morning routine, you will actually follow. Plus, Mel gets

right up in my face and tells me why my phone should not be next to my bed. And you know what?

Why yours shouldn't be there either because it's costing you precious time and so much money.

If you're ready to wake up in the morning excited to earn what you're worth and feel confident,

you are living your best life, pay attention to every word that Mel tells me. I hope you

enjoy this conversation with Mel Robbins as much as I enjoyed having it. You're in for a treat.

Mel, welcome to Good Money. Derek, oh my gosh, I know we've been trying to connect for a while,

so I'm really thrilled to be here with you today. Thank you for inviting me.
