A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

-Lao Tzu


While soft skills are often sold as necessary tools for professional development and success, we at The Reflective Human believe these are essential skills that should be readily available to all if we want a society that balances progress with compassion.

So we are removing the paywall often found in-front of online soft skills training courses and making them available free of charge on our learning platform.

We believe that by grounding our actions in empathy and rational thought, we can work towards a future that respects the dignity of every person, nurtures our environment and supports sustainable growth for all.


Don’t be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
— Steve Jobs

STOP. BREATH. THINK.


The Ten Commitments are less about absolutes and serve more as a guide to putting our beliefs into action. They hold us accountable to our values. They ask humanists to be proactive versus reactive. They demonstrate that being humanist involves doing what is inherently right to ensure the well being of everyone and everything in this world. They inspire me to be better as a person - Kristin Wintermute
