SocialSelf Avis 

The course was concise and provides specific exercises and action points to practice. I like that it is divided into bit size chunks that I can watch 5-10 daily.

Socializing really is a skill you can improve on. I found these classes very helpful in my own life & I’m much better at making friends & talking to people now!

I did the course Conversation Confidence. It's very practical, backed with theory, and easy to follow. I recommend them if you want to improve your social interactions!

I really enjoyed learning about the mechanics of a conversation. It sounds basic, but it helped my anxiety about conversations because I could start to see the cues and understand their meaning. The videos go over more information and have good practice tips. I would highly recommend these videos.

Overall, this course was super helpful for me. From an instructional design standpoint, the short targeted videos and tangible examples are great. The course could be enhanced with a downloadable reference that you can study later, as well as actual scenario demonstrations on the key points.

I have learned so many skills from the Social Self courses. My social circles have nicely widened, and I have had quite a few comments from people saying how much they enjoy talking to me.

I almost think everyone needs these courses. Making eye-contact, smiling, breaking the ice, finding things in common, listening - these are all teachable skills. Too many of us weren't taught them, and instead thought there was something wrong with us.

I wish I had learned all this before, but better late than never.

These skills can help all of us build our own kind, supportive communities, that are the requirement of a long and happy life.

One issue that held me back, was that i thought it was intrusive to ask other people questions. They would ask me about hobbies, interests and favorite movies, but I could not ask them back.

Now I realize how important it is to express interest in the other person, and far from being offended, others really enjoy answering and talking about themselves.

I have had so many other questions answered, such as the difference between private and personal information and how much to share, what to do when the other person talks too much, and what if they don't ask me any questions?

I am very appreciative of Social Self and very impressed.

Using conversation examples in the form of back-and-forth dialogue could make them more engaging and helpful for us

It helped me getting confidence and more comfortable in a period that my shyness was as high as it had never been. I still have my challenges, but I feel so much more confident, in peace with myself and happy!

It has been a very positive experience going through one of the SocialSelf courses!! I love how each lesson is short and sweet and to the point!! I love how each video is only 2 - 5 minutes long, so mentally I know I can watch a quick video when I have a few spare minutes. I also LOVE how under most videos there is a reference to existing research so I can explore more of the literature on my own!! Rarely would I see footnotes with references so I really really appreciate that! Thank you!!!

Whilst SocialSelf has been known for its courses, I had the fortune to come across one of their interactive offerings, the Authentic Attraction Club - a community where men who are looking to improve themselves and learn how to communicate better with women to build meaningful long-term relationships.

This has been one of the safest and most supportive spaces I have been a part of where men can truly explore their challenges and struggles without any fear of judgement. Mathew, the head coach, has done an excellent job in facilitating the environment. His leadership has enabled us all to connect, grow and refine our skills. The program includes weekly training calls with live roleplaying exercises where we immediately apply what we learnt, as well as regular community discussions where we reflect on our progress and challenges.

The community provides something rare in today's society: genuine masculine camaraderie. As everyone is on a similar journey of self-improvement, we've developed strong, supportive connections that have really enhanced my personal growth.

Social Self has been wonderful for me personally on my journey of growth. The first call I showed up for, I just observed and listened in on the conversation. I wasn't quite ready to open up at that point. About a month later, I showed up for another one. And I did struggle to open up, but I pushed myself a little further. What's wonderful about working with the people at Social Self is how they welcome everyone no matter where they are at on their journey. This is a genuinely safe space. So, if you're contemplating trying this out, I highly recommend it because this is a judgment-free zone. I'm walking proof because growing up I was the kid who never spoke up in class or shared my voice at all. I waited on the sideline for someone to be interested in what I had to say. And here I am, sharing my voice about my experience with Social Self. Am I still a work-in-progess? Yes! All that matters is that we show up imperfectly with a willingness to learn and grow. Everyone at Social Self understands and cares for people. And they provide actionable steps, tools, and tips to help you on your journey wherever you may be at. I too have felt like I didn't fit in anywhere. I'm still working on opening up more, but with Social Self, I feel like I belong. I'm excited to see where this healing journey takes me next. :)

I wish I could of knew about SocialSelf sooner in life. When I was growing up out of high school, I've struggle to keep contact with others to become friends, had trouble knowing how to talk to others like blanking out or not knowing what to say; feeling I would say the wrong thing, feeling loneliness, anxious, depressed, stressed, I thought I could cope with this stuff, but as I got older, it was getting worse. I wanted to know how to talk to others to help in social life and friends, but I didn't know who or what could taught me how. My mom came across this site and thought it would help and it did.

When I came across SocialSelf I read the free programs/articles. There was so much information that some I knew, but also some I never knew about. I then started to sign up on a free quiz test to see where I was at, and was asked a few questions. After that, I was shortly was emailed by David, the founder of SocialSelf. He gave me free emails every few days on advice and many good things to tell about himself, but also things in social life.

I was later offered a program from David I never knew about. I will be honest at first, I was skeptical and almost didn't go with it, but I took a chance to try it out. I'm very grateful I did. To put it short, the one I went first was Awkward to Awesomeness. These programs are easy step by step videos that David, his friend Victor, and other staff have put together on how to talk to others 1-1, group conversations, how to listen, and many more. Probably one of the most transform was Self-Conscious to Self-Confidence. The others programs have helped too.

While I can't tell everything in this view, but when I took the course, it has transformed my life for the better. For example, when I was talking to a old friend of mine, I had no idea how to start conversations, or how to keep it going. I would often blank out, say very short answers and would make end it too soon. When I practice with this course, it not only has helped, but has also made my friend and I became very close this very day.

When I first started, it's not gonna magically happen all of a sudden. What I mean is depending on where you're at in life; your strengths and weakness, some may be easier than others until you practice them. For me it took awhile; being on the Autism Spectrum, it got better and I could see the instate results. If you give it some time and put effort into it, you will see results!

The SocialSelf staff are great! (Shout out to Molly & Matthew) They are very friendly and helpful. The Staff are people who want to help you with your social life because there are so many people out there who have no idea how to take on their social life. They've been through similar experience too. The thing with me is I thought there wasn't anyone who could show and taught me how and it was starting to hurt my health and life. When I came to SocialSelf, it has transformed me and I'm a lot happier in life.

There are some area I'm still working on, but I'm a lot better at it then I was back then. I would recommend it. Give it a try. If you're not sure, try out the free programs and see how it goes. And if it does work out, you can try the course/programs to get more information. If something doesn't work out, you can switch a program, get a refund back within 60 days risk free, or contact SocialSelf.

I don't know where I'd be without SocialSelf, but it's been a blessing when I found out about it. Thank you David, Victor, and all the SocialSelf Staff who made this possible!

Great courses - gave me a few things to think about. Customer service responds really quickly and is very helpful.

Sometimes details make the difference. You add just a question to your conversation or make a small association to the subject and you feel more included. I am a good listener but not a very talkative person. I have tried to adjust my self in conversations in order to make people comfortable talking to me, and I have also seen these details as I bother other people. Although all my efforts for becoming better on creating fast relationships with people, I was missing something that I couldn’t grasp. I learned by David that making people comfortable doesn’t mean that you have to hide yourself and to hide your ideas or your identity. Making a good conversation does mean that all the spotlight should be over other person 100%, and over you 0%. And I learned by the course that conversation is made up by th contribution of both. In contrary just like the flow of the river, you have to be the part of the conversations, with your ideas and your thouhts and your life translated into words. I was missing these messages although I have tried hard for several years to find my path over my communication skills. So for me it was an invaluable experience, and I suggest to everybody that feels like missing something on his/her communication skills.

Thank you so much, David and the team for this course!

I am taking it for a couple of weeks now and I am really enjoying how my perspective on social interaction changes because of it. Thank you for all understanding, care and encouragement for others that you invested in this course 🙏

Thank you, SocialSelf.

The Self-Conscious to Confident course was probably the best money I have ever spent. And this praise would probably be enough...But no.

A piece of advice that I was given and which actually worked - even surprising myself - came from one of their free emails - from David A. Morin (SocialSelf's founder). Yes...free email! Talk about bang for the buck.

Anyway...You will not regret the wisdom you will obtain from SocialSelf, on your path to become a better you.

Thank you again, SocialSelf.

Awesome group. #1 they are very inspiring and supportive. #2 Matthew and the other support staff and coaches are great. The material stretches you and gets you out of your comfort zone to grow.

I’ve been taking the Awkward to Awesome course, and have found it really helpful so far. I am still at an early stage but have been able to apply some of the pointers to my everyday social situations and got good results. It felt so nice to find a course that speaks exactly to how I am feeling in social situations, and also to find a community of like-minded people.

Recently, I attended a Zoom session on "showing up authentically," which was also a great experience for me. The session was led by Mathew, who created such a safe and engaging environment. His approach was fun, compassionate, and encouraging. I felt a bit more comfortable to be my authentic self and left the session feeling good.

I highly recommend SocialSelf to anyone looking to improve their social skills, build confidence, and connect more authentically with others!
