At Humanity Academy we explore the complexities of being human through various lenses such as communication, relationships, art & writing, Self-awareness, emotions, and overall mental health and well-being.
We offer a suite of Free 5-day Educational Email courses. Our most popular is by far The Learning Journal Crash Course. You can sign up for any of our courses -- no spam, no catch -- just great content.
