Amy Morin is a licensed psychotherapist and international bestselling author whose books on mental strength have sold over one million copies and been translated into more than 50 languages.

Her work began with personal loss. After her mother died suddenly when Amy was 23, and her husband Lincoln died of a heart attack three years later, Amy — then a young therapist — found herself counseling clients while her own life was falling apart. She wrote an article called “13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do” as a letter to herself when her father-in-law was later diagnosed with terminal cancer. It went viral, was read by more than 50 million people, and became the basis for her first bestselling book.

Her TEDx talk, “The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong,” has been viewed 25 million times and ranks among the most-watched TEDx talks of all time. She is the Webby-award-winning host of the Mentally Stronger podcast, a columnist for Psychology Today, and the former editor-in-chief of Verywell Mind. Her work has been featured on Today, GMA, Tamron Hall, CNN, Inside Edition, NPR, in TIME, Oprah Daily, and many other outlets.

Her latest book is The Mental Strength Playbook: 50 Tools to Cope with Stress, Thrive Under Pressure, and Gain a Competitive Edge in the Workplace. She lives on a sailboat in the Florida Keys.

We really enjoyed having Amy speak at Northwestern Mutual last week. I was standing to the side of our audience during her keynote, and I could see how engaged the audience was with her presentation. Lots of heads nodding and emotions happening. We had a lot of great audience questions as well. As I walked Amy back from our main stage, we had a lot of people stopping her to tell her what a great job she did.
