Alex Obed

Alex Obed is an inner-space explorer on a mission to open minds and hearts toward a new level of freedom in our relationships. He just dishes it out there—more like an amateur chef than an expert—breaking eggs along the way.

Playing the archetype of “the Fool” (he’s an April Fool’s Day kid, after all) to imperfection, he hopes to coax some of you to take the adventure with him: taking more risks, being more vulnerable, and making more messes.

He’s a student of psychology (M.A., humanistic and transpersonal psychology), Certified Life Coach (don’t hold it against him), published author, and lover of books. The depth psychologists have his heart: Carl Jung, Robert Johnson, Erich Neumann, and Marie-Louise von Franz.

Equal parts mystic and goofball, his wanderings—think “Caine” from Kung Fu—have taken him on a six-month road trip around the U.S., learning mysticism in Israel for two years, and, most recently, on a 20,000 nautical-mile adventure around the world by ship!
