Listen "EP 24: When to say "Let Them", When to say "Good To Know""
Episode Synopsis
If you’ve ever replayed a conversation in your head… asked yourself Why did I say that? Why didn’t they reply? Why can’t I let it go? — then this episode is for you. I walk you through two deceptively simple yet profoundly powerful systems:The The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins, which says: don’t chase people, don’t prove yourself, don’t perform to be accepted—just let them reveal who they are. The The Quinn Essentials by Andrea Quinn, and specifically the “Good to Know” tool, which is what you say after the disappointment, the boundary-crossing, the moment you see the truth and instead of spiralling, you say “Good to know.” In this episode you’ll discover:The core difference between “Let Them” and “Good to Know”How these apply not just to romantic relationships, but to leadership, corporate communication, sales, parenting, team cultureWhy activating your brain’s pre-frontal cortex (“Let Them” = pause, space, control) and soothing the amygdala (“Good to Know” = process, transform, evolve) matters in business and lifePop-culture clips you’ll recognise (yes, I mention Legally Blonde, Jerry Maguire, Frozen, Sex and the City) to make this sticky and funMy personal story using “Good to Know” live on-stage when someone challenged me (you’ll hear that moment)Corporate & sales takeaways: know when to disengage, and when to re-calibrate and stay.You don’t need to explain yourself. You don’t need to prove yourself. You simply need to breathe.Say “Let Them” when someone’s behaviour tells you they’re on a different path.Say “Good to Know” when the truth reveals itself and you decide to evolve, not collapse.Leadership isn’t about controlling every outcome—it’s about keeping your soul steady in the storm, staying calm, centred, responsive. That’s being in the driver’s seat of your life. And yes, you belong in that seat. You matter. You’ve got this.Support the show🎥 Watch me break down these microexpressions on YouTube: Janine Driver YouTube Channel📱 Follow for more: @newbodylanguage on Instagram, @bodylanguageinstiture on TikTok & Janine Driver on Facebook💡 Want to take your people-reading skills to the next level?Join my live group class or book a 1-on-1 masterclass at www.janinedriver.com!
