Language and identity — what your first language holds: What Nobody Tells You: No one explains how profoundly your first language determines which thoughts feel natural, which emotions feel expressible, which versions of yourself feel real. This course names what's been hidden in plain sight.

Discover how your first language secretly shapes which thoughts feel natural, emotions feel real, and versions of yourself emerge—what nobody tells you.
