Human School
Human School is a podcast that explores the inner human experience, focusing on emotional growth, presence, and purpose. It reframes pain as instruction and productivity as presence, offering stories, tools, and raw conversations to help listeners stop performing and start participating in their lives. The podcast was born from a personal breakdown and aims to provide the education we never received about being human.
