Growing mentally stronger will change your life and therapist Amy Morin wants to show you how to make it happen. Amy Morin is a psychotherapist and the author of the 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do series, which have been translated into more than 45 languages and sold over a million copies. Her TEDx talk, The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong,” is one of the most viewed talks of all time with over 24 million views. She’s a speaker and corporate trainer who teaches companies like Google, Under Armour, and NBC how to grow mentally stronger. Amy’s personal journey with grief (she lost her mother at 23, became a widow at 26, and lost her father-in-law shortly after), inspired her to take a deep dive into what it takes to build mental strength. And now, she’s sharing what she’s learned along the way. Unlike other shows, "Mentally Stronger" provides a unique blend of research-backed strategies, stories of mental strength, and therapist-approved strategies that will empower you to overcome challenges and thrive. Each episode offers practical, actionable insights from Amy and her conversations with world-class experts, successful entrepreneurs, and influential thought leaders. Discover the secrets to mastering your mindset, boosting emotional intelligence, and building habits that lead to lasting success. Stick around for "The Therapist's Take" at the end of each guest interview and tune in for "The Friday Fix" for quick exercises to enhance your mental strength. Whether you're facing personal struggles, struggling with mental health, or striving to get the most of your life, "Mentally Stronger" is your essential guide to achieving mental strength. Join Amy on this transformative journey and become the master of your own mind. And the fun part is, she records the show from a sailboat in the Florida Keys!
