  • 251 — How to Stop Being a People-Pleaser With Psychotherapist Meg Josephson
    2025/09/29
    Do you spend a lot of time worrying about whether someone is mad at you? Do you avoid sharing your opinion because you don’t want to be disliked? If so, you might be engaging in fawning—a survival response that drives people-pleasing behavior. I'm joined by Meg Josephson, psychotherapist and bestselling author of Are You Mad at Me?. Together, we explore the roots of fawning, how it impacts our lives, and the steps you can take to stop worrying about what others think and start living for yourself. Some of the things we talk about are: What fawning is and how it differs from people-pleasing. Why fawning is a survival response that has likely protected you in the past. The signs you might be fawning. The dangers of becoming a people-pleaser. Why relationships are the key to healing from fawning. How to learn reconnect with your own needs.

  • 250 — The Surprising Power of Letting Yourself Feel Bad
    2025/09/26
    What if letting yourself feel bad could actually make you stronger? There's a lot of pressure to be happy or to improve your mood all the time. But sometimes, feeling terrible isn't just OK, it's actually helpful. Our natural response to feeling bad is to fix the situation or avoid the feeling, which can actually make things worse. Learning to embrace and process uncomfortable emotions is a key part of building mental strength. Some of the things I share are: Why avoiding feelings can backfire How to sit with uncomfortable emotions How to avoid making feelings more intense The difference between being sad and throwing a pity party Why accepting emotions helps you recover faster How to build resilience by facing your feelings Mentally Strong App Get mental strength coaching (subscribers only) — ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Episode 250 Exercise⁠⁠ ⁠ Subscribe to the app to unlock all the features — ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MentallyStrong.Downpat.Ai⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with the Show Buy a copy of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with Amy on Instagram — ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@AmyMorinAuthor⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Visit my website — ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AmyMorinLCSW.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sponsors HoneyLove — Save 20% Off Honeylove by going to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠honeylove.com/STRONGER⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ #honeylovepod CocoaVia — Get 20% off with code Amy2025 at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠cocoavia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

  • 244 — The Science of Motivation: How to Get Things Done When You Feel Stuck
    2025/09/05
    Whether you struggle to stick to your work out routine or you have a hard time staying motivated to write a book, one small shift in your mindset could make all the difference. Motivation isn't something you either have or you don't. It's something you can create. One of the best ways to maintain motivation involves the way you describe yourself. Instead of looking at what you want to achieve, consider the person you want to become. Some of the things I share include: Why focusing on your identity, not just your goals, is the key to lasting motivation. How to reframe your goals to align with the person you want to become. The surprising science behind identity-based motivation — and how it rewires your brain. Four steps to put this strategy into action — and one common mistake to avoid. How small changes in your language can transform your mindset and behavior.
