John Cooper is a speaker, coach, and creator known for developing Social Heartistry, a social skills discipline built on creative intelligence rather than performance. From his background as an art director, he applies the creative principles of art to the social world, challenging the transactional nature of modern social and relationship advice, and instead showing people how to express as their own Social Artists.

Alongside his coaching and teaching, John hosts long form conversations to uncover the forces shaping culture, power, and human behaviour. His work gives people stronger presence in the world, sharper self understanding and awareness.
