5 Seconds to Stop: Ending Hair Pulling with Mel Robbins' Method

In this episode, I dive into Mel Robbins’ life-changing "5 Second Rule" and how I’ve used it to stop pulling out my hair. You’ll hear the backstory of how Mel discovered this tool during one of the most challenging periods of her life, and why it works as a powerful pattern interrupter — not just for BFRBs like hair pulling, but for everyday decisions that require courage. This rule helped me disrupt the urge to pull, but also helped me take action toward a life where I don’t need to pull to cope. Whether you're dealing with a body-focused repetitive behavior or just stuck in a cycle that isn’t serving you, this episode is a must-listen.
