    Thinking Clearer
    Thank you Amy for these Monday podcasts. I just wanted to show my gratitude for helping me emotionally and mentally sound. Well at least I’m working on being mentally sound lol. I have been going through some traumatizing losses since early 2022. It started out with EDD when I was receiving unemployment benefits, they claimed they overpaid me which is not true. HOW could that be so? I’ve always worked since I was 16 years old, I recently was just out of work for 2 years 2020-2022????? SO NO! But they put a judgement lien on me for $4k but because they took all the money out of my bank accounts AUTOMATICALLY, without prior notice, they drained both checking and savings all the way to zero balance. Left me without a penny. They took out $10K not $4k!!!!! I didn’t know what I was going to do about bills and rent and just live. Since I was still not working at that point. From what I understood they can only take percentage of my EARNED INCOME. So that’s means only if I was earning a living at 20% but they cannot take all of it. At that time I was too weak to fight back. I started going into a deep depression from that point on. Then we found out my uncle (mom’s only brother) whom I was very close with; has stage 4 pancreatic cancer. I helped take care of him and taking him to doctor appointments. Then June 2023 he passed away. 10 days later, one of my bestfriend died from kidney failure, then my mom passed away 5 months after that (Dec 2022) then as if that wasn’t enough; my live in BF Daniel of 3 years, broke up with me first week of Dec 2022, I was really devastated, so I decided I really needed to be with my dad in the Philippines. I arrived to the Philippines in January 2023 and after just 1 month my eldest sister, whom I haven’t seen in 40 years gets really jealous of my relationship with my dad. She kicked me and my dad out of the house which my dad had fully paid for, and a brand new SUV which again our dad had fully paid for. My dad and I stayed at my mom’s cousins for the next 4 months until we were able to get a plane ticket back to US. One week after We arrived home in America, we took my dad to Kaiser, only to find out he has stage 4 Lung cancer. Although Daniel and I were broken up, we both remained in contact regularly over texts and calling each other daily. Upon my return home in April 2023, Daniel and I kept seeing each other, he even stayed the night and sometimes the whole weekend. He was even helping me financially until I found a job and got back on my feet again. But after about a month, That’s when I found out Daniel was already seeing someone else since Feb 2023!!!!, BUT not one word to me about it. The bastard was coming over and spending the night with me, being with me sexually and calling me & texting daily???? He gave me hope that we were working towards our relationship again. Daniel won’t even speak or have any communication with me and ghosting me even. Finally I received an email from him last week only to tell me that he’s getting married and starting a family!!!!! What a blow to my face. He’s 54 years old and this woman just turned 30 in August!!!! My heart was just shattered into pieces and I wanted to end my life. With my loved ones gone and dad is terminally ill. I couldn’t see the point of living. I’ve just been getting kicked to the ground financially, emotionally & mentally. Then about 3 days ago I stumbled on your podcast. Desperately trying to find an answer as to why this is happening to me? Between listening to your podcast, continually attending my church & Bible study group weekly, and God’s grace, I’m still here breathing and writing a very long (maybe unnecessary rant- so I’m sorry) somewhat of a review. Just to say THANK YOU from the bottom of what’s left of my heart, for helping me pick up my self little at a time, day at a time. Sincerely, Lara M.

    Great podcast for those struggling
    This podcast is so informative and helpful for those struggling with any mental health issues. Her suggestions are realistic and have helped me so much with my own anxiety and depression. Her books are great also!
  • plf227
    SO helpful, AND practical advice!
    I have listened to a number of ‘self help’ podcasts with mediocre, vague advice. This podcast is different. Her 15 minute Friday series gives ‘do it today’ PRACTICAL and actionable advice that WAS helpful.
  • Snohil
    Everyone should listen to this podcast
    I can't not tell you what change and hope I have gotten from this podcast. Their is such great information and help for all different types of people and problems. Helps you realize that everyone is struggling in same way or other and your not alone and how the people she interviews have persevered. After a divorce and becoming a single mom I thought I wouldn't make it through. Over and over each episode gives me hope and strategies that have improved my life. Thank you so much Amy!

    Grateful
    This site has helped me untangle some pretty tight knots of emotional confusion caused by faulty thinking. I have been given tools to help me choose behaviors that support my mental well being rather continue In repetitive choices that undermine it. Thank you

  • Pearlgirlrn80
    Great straightforward advice
    I stumbled upon Amy through a different podcast. I have binge listened to her episodes!! I love her “Therapists Take” where she sums up the takeaways. She covers a large range of ideas and gives great advice about how to face them. I have ordered her books and am loving her straight forward and simple advice to take on life’s challenges! Her tools make me believe that I can become mentally stronger and face life and whatever is thrown at me.
  • MrBlueSkyELO_2017
    Awesome podcast!
    Really helpful! Have learned a whole lot from this show, and can’t wait for more! :!

    Chance find
    I stumbled across mentally stronger when looking for Anxiety podcasts. Her session with Dr. Kennedy was eye opening. It’s the first time I’ve heard anyone approach anxiety from the physiological effects (vs cognitive). So much focus is on changing your thoughts. I moved on to Amy Morin’s Friday Fix podcasts. Excited about this find!!
  • Jennaveive27

    This show really helps me
    I have been working on my mental strength ever since I read 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do. Now, I get to hear tips for building mental strength every week and it helps me so much. Thank you Amy!
  • Beach4obx
    Mentally Stronger!
    I started out by listening to her audiobook. Such great content that once I finished, I started to listen to the podcasts. What is amazing is that I even though the title may not appeal to me, I still come away with a deeper insight on how I think and process things! Give one episode a listen, and I bet you will come away with the same impression.

    The Best Psychotherapist Podcast
    What I like about her show is very simple to understand and informative with numerous things to follow ,as many know that usually psychotherapist generally talks too much without telling you what exactly to do 🤍
  • johnny timetraveler
    Practical and Inspirational Podcast!
    I first listened to Amy Morin’s superb “13 Ways to Build Mental Strength” on the SimpleHabit app. I returned to it often and recommended it to family members for its clear, practical advice. I was thrilled to discover her new podcast Mentally Stronger. Amy’s compassion, sense of humor and enthusiasm come through every episode. Thanks!
  • Probably Not Steve
    10/10 would recommend
    I love this podcast!! Always gets me in the right mindset.
  • Ydarb drawde
    Great Podcast!!!
    Every time we hear Amy we come away with more understanding. As former teachers and people who by nature had to study people and behavioral choices, it is so affirming to our instincts as well as informative for those situations and interactions that are relatable yet still questionable as to how to respond.
  • kevindavis_nrt
    Life-giving podcast

    My own personal therapist!!!
    Amy Morin and her common sense philosophy and approach to life and it’s challenges is so helpful to me every day! Since the first article I read 10 years ago I’ve followed her career through books, articles, interviews and podcasts. Her home is here- giving the world the best advice, always based from the most helpful book I’ve ever read, 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do.
  • Carifly13
    So happy Amy is here!
    I’ve been learning and growing mentally strong with Amy since her first book 13 Things Mentally Strong People came out years ago, with each book, and each podcast she’s done I’ve learned so much and have new tools to get through life! I don’t miss a podcast! I’m so thankful I followed her here!!! Amy Morin and Mentally Stronger hands down is the most useful podcast you’ll put in your rotation! I won’t go a week without her voice in my head;)

    Love Amy’s podcasts. Mental health and building mental strength is so important. The podcasts are very informative with strategies that can be incorporated everyday. Amy’s and her guest bring awareness to mental health issues. Hearing people tell their stories of how they have been impacted and discussing strategies that have improved their mental strength is so valuable. Great job! You are amazing!

  • roselacasse8
    Thank you Amy
    I've struggled my whole life with feeling sorry for myself and grief. I've often felt alone in this world and it's stopped me from achieving some of my goals. I started listening to your podcasts a month ago and you've already helped me so much. I listen when i'm cleaning or getting ready for bed. It makes me feel relaxed and motivate me to tackle the days ahead!
  • BriceW.L.
