Here's what's included in GoSocial!
GoSocial! is organized into 5 modules, including 18 content-packed animations, key learning points, discussion questions, and an 80+ page journal. Take a sneak peek into each module:
Module 1: The Anxiety Experience
Social anxiety can strike when we’re meeting new people, when we have to speak or perform in front of others, when we’re online or replying to texts, and even when we’re among friends. The uncomfortable physical symptoms are very real, and Victor and Camille are starting to believe there’s something wrong with them. But don’t fear your fear, the Protector is here! Sort of.
Included: 4 videos, learning summary, journal
Module 2: Transforming Anxious Feelings
Pounding hearts, feverish sweating, tense muscles, upset stomachs… these are the uncomfortable ways social anxiety shows up in our bodies. The Protector travels through space and time to explain the science behind those feelings, how to decode the messages social anxiety sends, and some proven tools for transforming those feelings into excitement, focus, and motivation.
Included: 4 videos, learning summary, journal
Module 3: Talking to Anxious Thoughts
At the root of social anxiety are our anxious thoughts. Victor and Camille are frustrated with the negative voices in their heads spouting endless streams of catastrophic “what if” thoughts. Fortunately, the Protector has tools to help with that, too, and we learn that those anxious thoughts are actually on our side.
Included: 4 videos, learning summary, journal
Module 4: Growing Confidence
Victor and Camille have learned so many tools for coping with their challenging feelings and negative thoughts, but they’re still missing one key ingredient to overcoming their social anxiety: confidence. Turns out all the tools in every dimension in the universe won’t help if you don’t believe in yourself. In this module, the Protector gets help from a close friend who teaches confidence and self-worth.
Included: 3 videos, learning summary, journal
Module 5: Social Superpowers
Victor and Camille have been on the adventure of a lifetime, and it’s time for them to put everything they’ve learned into practice. They learn handy tips for starting conversations, maintaining people’s interest, holding their bodies to project confidence, and interacting in a way that makes themselves, and others, feel good.
Included: 3 videos, learning summary, journal

Helping kids grow social confidence is so much deeper than "don't be shy!"
Social anxiety is not about being shy, or an introvert, or even being nervous. It's a deep fear of certain social situations that causes kids, teens, and many adults to lose confidence, experience intense physical symptoms, and wonder over and over again, "What's wrong with me?!?"
The truth is that nothing is wrong. In fact, as our newest hero, the Protector, explains, something is actually quite right. When young people learn the real science behind their emotions, they learn to work with their feelings, not against them, and their emotional intelligence, self-worth, and true potential take off at superhero speed.
In GoSocial!, kids get the tools they need to show up as their best, most authentic selves! They learn the real purpose of the anxious voices inside their heads, and they learn how to use their unique, personal strengths to meet new people, hold meaningful conversations, perform before an audience, and grow their social skills one confident step at a time. We’re proud to invite you to participate in this content-packed program, complete with discussion questions and worksheets.
