At a glance

  • Best-selling author of The 5 Second Rule
  • Creator of popular online courses on confidence and mindset
  • Influential social media personality with 60M+ monthly followers
Mel Robbins is the creator and host of The Mel Robbins Podcast, one of the most-followed shows in the world, and the author of The Let Them Theory, the top-selling nonfiction book of 2025. The Let Them Theory has sold more than 8 million copies in its first eleven months and topped the New York Times, Amazon, Audible, and Sunday Times bestseller lists. Her earlier books, The 5 Second Rule and The High 5 Habit, have sold millions of copies and been translated into 65 languages. The Mel Robbins Podcast has been nominated for the first Golden Globe Award for Best Podcast. Mel's work centers on a simple idea: real change comes from learning specific tools, not willpower alone. Through her media company, 143 Studios, she has brought that thinking into partnerships with Starbucks, JPMorgan Chase, and LinkedIn, translating personal behavior change into organizational results. The Wall Street Journal has called her a billion-view podcaster, and TIME Magazine credits her with giving millions of listeners a reason to believe in themselves. Audiences leave with practical, research-backed tools for building confidence, taking action under pressure, and motivating the people around them, at work and at home. Mel's frameworks give teams a clear, repeatable way to close the gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it. Book Mel to give your audience a global voice on behavior change with a message they will actually put into practice.

The High 5 Habit: Take Control Of Your Life With One Simple Habit
Mel Robbins tackles the question every leader faces: how to motivate and inspire a team consistently. Drawing on the research behind her international best-seller The High 5 Habit, and the simple habit she discovered one morning, Mel shows that inspiring others starts with learning to inspire yourself first. She introduces the High 5 Leader approach, built on five habits of celebration and support, and gives audiences a research-backed way to build cohesive, motivated teams and navigate change with confidence.
The 5 Second Rule
Mel Robbins argues it isn't enough to tell people what to do, they need to be shown how to change. The 5 Second Rule began as a trick Mel created to get out of bed during the hardest period of her life, now used by healthcare professionals, veterans' organizations, and leading brands. Through stories and humor, Mel walks audiences through the science of habits and the courage behind five-second decisions, sending teams home ready to act.

Testimonials

I have been doing what I do for over 20 years, almost 8 with HFMA, and in that time I have never worked with a speaker as engaged as Mel. Her commitment and investment in making ours a successful event is unprecedented. I look forward to working with her on the rest of our program.

Director, Conferences and Travel, HFMA

Mel was inspirational, comforting, challenging and pragmatic, all wrapped into one. Although our engagement was done virtually, she made all 4,000 associates feel that she was in their living room, engaging them directly. Her impact will be profound, both personally for our associates, as well as for our business as we emerge stronger in a post COVID world.

What is Mel Robbins's speaking style like?

Audiences receive a specific, practised tool to take away rather than a general motivational message.
What topics does Mel Robbins specialise in?

Her book The Let Them Theory was the top-selling nonfiction title of 2025, selling more than 8 million copies in its first eleven months and topping the New York Times, Amazon, Audible, and Sunday Times bestseller lists.
What does 'typical fee range' mean?

Speaker fees vary based on factors like event location, format, and availability. The 'typical fee range' figure gives you a baseline of someone's local, in-person rate sits, and we'll confirm the exact fee when you get in touch.

What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule a speaker booking?

Life happens! Most speaker bookings can be rescheduled with reasonable notice. Cancellation terms vary by speaker, but PepTalk handles all the details & contracts transparently upfront so there are no surprises. Our team supports you through any changes, making the process as smooth as possible.

Have all the speakers on the website previously worked with PepTalk?

Not necessarily.

Alongside direct talent, we work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies, to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

What information do I need to provide when booking a speaker?

When booking a speaker, you'll need your event date, audience details, format, key objectives, and budget. Having these ready makes the process smooth and straightforward. PepTalk's team uses this information to match you with the perfect speaker quickly and efficiently.

Can I request autographs, personal greetings, signed merchandise, or fan mail from the speakers?

Can I book podcast guests through PepTalk?

Yes. PepTalk books commercial podcast guests every week of the year. A high-profile voice can boost your podcast's reach and deliver ideas to your audience at scale.

How far in advance should I book a motivational speaker?

Book a motivational speaker at least 3–6 months in advance, especially for popular speakers or large events. Top speakers get booked quickly, so earlier is always better. For major conferences or peak seasons, booking 12 months ahead ensures you secure your first choice.

Help, I need a last-minute speaker for my event!
