  • Waste of time

    Just wasted 7 minutes of my life listening to a podcast which is just a sales pitch for the book. Nothing else.

  • Just a constant sales pitch

    I was recommended this podcast by a colleague, and had high hopes for it as it’s the kind of podcast I really enjoy. However, after listening to 4 or 5 episodes (particularly the latest ones) sadly 90% of each episode seems to be a sales pitch for his book, which isn’t even available in the UK.

The Secret to Building Mental Strength with Amy Morin
Q: What practical steps can someone take today to build mental strength?
Start with small, intentional actions: write down daily goals, practice gratitude, name and reframe emotions, schedule worry time, and use breathing strategies to calm the body before challenging tasks.
The Secret to Building Mental Strength with Amy Morin
