The Workshop is a new podcast from The School of Life made exclusively for our app subscribers. Join Alain de Botton, our founder and creative director, and John Armstrong, the School of Life’s philosopher-in-chief, as we tackle fundamental questions: Can people change? What makes a good friend? Does love have to come to an end? The tone is intimate, warm, often funny, always sincere. Tune in to find humour, relief and guidance in some life's most arduous challenges. | | | NEW Episode 7: How to Be More Confident
Why do we have such different levels of confidence? Why do some people manage to propel themselves forward with a buoyant sense of their right to exist, while others languish in shame and self-doubt?
Alain and John consider the topic of confidence; where it comes from, how we might have more of it, and the difference it can make. | | | A Practical Guide for Long-Term Confidence Designed to help you rediscover and nurture innate confidence, our practical and encouraging workbook features exercises and tools on key themes – such as childhood, work, sexuality – to help you boldly begin the path of who you long, and deserve, to be. | | | The Self-Improvement Journal – Out Now The Self-Improvement Journal is our latest linen-bound book, designed to help us understand what we want, how we want to change, and where we need to go – in order to maximise our chances of leading a fulfilled and contented life. Second in the series, it pairs perfectly with the Self-Reflection Journal, offering a series of meaningful daily prompts to help us check-in on ourselves and clarify our futures. | | | |
