STOP BEING USEFUL TO EVERYONE | MEL ROBBINS #motivationalspeech

This speech dives deep into the emotional cost of over giving, people-pleasing, and tying your self-worth to how much you do for everyone else. With powerful truth bombs and personal reflection, it shatters the myth that being constantly “useful” is a badge of honor. Instead, it urges you to reclaim your time, your energy, your voice—and ultimately, your identity. This isn’t about becoming cold or distant. It’s about learning to say no without guilt, setting unapologetic boundaries, and finally putting yourself back at the center of your own life.
