Alex Simon is a Yale professor who teaches the emotional and communication skills we all should’ve learned in school—but didn’t.

She facilitates experiential workshops and courses on: how to have hard conversations, stop people-pleasing, listen better, navigate big life shifts, and more. Her sessions are deep, connective, practical, and—somehow—shockingly fun.

When she was 27, she started teaching at Yale: she created "The Self & Other: In Theory and Practice," one of the university’s most sought-after courses.
