Who am I?

I am a therapist and an international bestselling author of five book son mental strength. My passion is teaching people how to fix the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that hold them back in life. I went through a series of losses in my life and during a dark period, I wrote myself a letter about how to become mentally strong. That letter helped me so I published it online hoping it would help someone else. Over 50 million people read that list and I landed a book deal.

The podcasts I picked and why

1. Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin

Why this podcast?

Every episode features mental strength tips from a therapist. Whether you want to learn how to deal with uncomfortable feelings or you want actionable strategies that will help you address your negative thoughts, this show teaches great mental strength advice.

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!

Play first episode

Dan Harris is a fidgety, skeptical journalist who had a panic attack on live national television, which led him to try something he otherwise never would have considered: meditation. He went on to write the bestselling book, 10% Happier. On this show, Dan talks with eminent meditation teachers, top scientists, and even the odd celebrity. Guests include everyone from His Holiness the Dalai Lama to Brené Brown to Karamo from Queer Eye. On some episodes, Dan ventures into the deep end of the pool, covering subjects such as enlightenment and psychedelics. On other episodes, it’s science-based techniques for issues such as anxiety, productivity, and relationships. Dan's approach is seemingly modest, but secretly radical: happiness is a skill you can train, just like working your bicep in the gym. Your progress may be incremental at first, but like any good investment, it compounds over time.

New episodes come out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Listen to 10% Happier on the Wondery App or wherever you listen to your podcasts. You can listen early and ad-free on Wondery+. Join Wondery+ in the Wondery App, Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Start your free trial by visiting https://wondery.com/links/ten-percent-happier-with-dan-harris now.
