Seeking profound ways to live a richer, happier life. Welcome to So Money.

Yeah, I hear that a lot where people will say just that. Like, I don't, I don't care about money. And sometimes people say that when they do have money. Sometimes people say it when they're struggling. But I find in the therapy office, the more people say I don't care about X, Y, or Z. It's like the more they really do care about it. And they're just trying to to shove it down or to pretend like this isn't affecting me.

Welcome to So Money, everybody. I'm Farniush Tarabi. We have a special guest today,

Amy Morin. She is a psychotherapist, mental strength trainer, and host of the wildly popular

podcast, Mentally Stronger. She's also an internationally best-selling author.

One of her most famous books is entitled 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do.

It's been translated into more than 40 languages and has sold more than one million copies.

The Guardian dubbed Amy the self-help guru of the moment, and Forbes calls her a thought leadership star.

Amy and I talk about her recent podcast episode entitled Lifestyle Mistakes that will keep you from growing mentally stronger.

And I happen to find that there were so many intersections with that advice and the advice for how to be financially stronger.

Mistakes like acting tough, trying to grow stronger alone, and we get into it.

Here's Amy Morin.

Right. I came down here. It's been seven years now. And it started out as a six-month adventure, like,

oh, let's go give this a shot. But I really liked it. So here we are, seven years later,

still living on a sailboat. Can you talk a little bit? Like, I don't want to spend too much time on

this, although I am fascinated about how you make it work and logistics and going from one place to the next.
