This book has been a total game-changer for me. It’s helped me let go of unnecessary stress and stop trying to control things (and people) that are out of my hands. I’m finding so much more peace in my everyday life by simply embracing the idea of “let them.” Mel’s words are empowering, practical, and exactly what I needed. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants more freedom and less emotional chaos!
