Why Clever People Do Dumb Things Course

This course is for thoughtful, capable people who sometimes find themselves stuck in patterns that don’t make sense—even to themselves.

Over five self-paced modules, you’ll explore why that happens. You’ll uncover the underlying beliefs, habits, and emotional shortcuts that shape your behaviour (often without you realising it). More importantly, you’ll learn how to work with your mind—not against it—to make better choices and build a life that feels more meaningful and manageable.

What’s Included:

• 5 practical, self-paced modules that build on each other
• Video lessons with clear, compassionate guidance
• Downloadable worksheets to help you apply what you learn
• A copy of the eBook Why Clever People Do Dumb Things
• Lifetime access to revisit the content whenever you need
