Welcome to School of Emotions

“Sometimes we are blind to things not because our eyes are closed, but because no one has helped us understand what we are seeing”

That is why the School of Emotions exists.

When the rhythm changes, so must our dance. Learning sometimes happens in one gigantic leap. But when you choose to learn, it generally happens through successive approximation, getting a little better each day. At times, it is a delightful experience, and other times it can be challenging and confusing. 

One small change in perception can create a big change in our view of the future. Becoming a better son, aunt, husband, cousin, neighbor, or colleague requires intentionality and focus, because the passage of time, by itself, does not ensure personal growth. Emotional competence requires regularity and commitment. Where can you start?

School of Emotions is the place to come if you want to take a course, listen to a podcast, read a white paper or book, join a learning conversation, assess your capacity for emotional regulation, or connect with a coach. But School of Emotions is not just a place to learn, it is a global community of Practitioners dedicated to supporting others in their learning journeys. 

If you are unsure where to begin let’s your explore possibilities together.

Courses

Emotions-Centered Coaching Course w/Dan Newby

Beyond Imposter Syndrome: Strengthening Self-Worth

How would life improve if you could shake the feeling that you are “not enough”?

Join Dan for this immersive, practice-based exploration.
It’s called ‘imposter syndrome’, low self-esteem, believing you are a fake or phony, feeling like a fraud, or unworthy. We’re often told that the way to overcome this sense of “not being enough” is by thinking positive thoughts or to “fake ’till you make it”. Anyone who has tried those knows that they might help but aren’t enough to permanently change the way you feel about yourself.

Emotional Mastery Learning Groups

What is it? The Emotional Mastery Groups meet every third week (four times per calendar quarter) to explore the meaning of individual emotions, the relationships between emotions, and how to leverage emotions both professionally and personally. Groups are limited to 10 participants and meet for a calendar quarter to generate connection and safety. Sessions are recorded and presentation materials are provided after each session. Because participation is global we host four groups for you to choose from as your ‘home’.
