When I found out about Rubin and his program, it was like the last puzzle piece to fit my life story together and the anxiety that was running me had been connected, never have I heard more accurate words coming from anyone on youtube about anxiety than him. If you feel nobody truly gets your symptoms, check him out and see that you are understood! This group is FULLL of accepting people who can relate to you! Without the guidance from Rubin and everybody, I don't even want to think about how lost I may have been! Learning to not seek self worth externally is only one of the things that's taught, this help will truly change your life if you are up for the task!

I’ve dealt with insecurity and anxiety for most of my life, it’s something I never thought I’d be able to overcome. I believed that I was born different and had to accept my circumstances. Until I came across Rubin’s YouTube channel and learned that there are actually thousands of people struggling with this form of social anxiety and insecurity and negative believes. Rubin understands this more than anyone else, as he personally went through all of it. When I read about his own personal story of struggling with social anxiety, I was blown away. His debilitating symptoms were much worse than mine, and seeing the guy he is today, you never would’ve guessed. You can tell that he’s truly passionate about this work he’s doing and that he cares for everyone in the program. Rubin helps you take action and gives you a step by step plan for tackling your social anxiety. Every time I hop off a call with him, I feel like I have a deeper understanding of how my internal system works and more motivation and hope for what’s next to come in my life

Before I met Rubin, I had almost given up hope about being able to heal my social anxiety. I had gone down several self-help research rabbit holes, tried multiple therapists, and all kinds of “exposure therapy” to break free from the chains of social anxiety. When nothing worked I thought something was wrong with me and I would just never get better. After all those attempts, of course I was skeptical when I started working with Rubin because I believed the same pattern would repeat again. But I have never been more wrong!
Working with Rubin not only helped me heal my social anxiety, but also completely transformed how I look at myself, others around me, and the world. And it gave me the bonus of not just healing my social anxiety but several other aspects of my life as well. This has been especially life-changing and transformative for me given that I am a lawyer, working in a high pressure environment that involves working with different kinds of people, on a daily basis. Without the work I did with Rubin, I would have been going through the day to day of my profession in a much more triggered and anxious state than I do today. What Rubin teaches his clients is not just something that stays with them during the time he is directly working with them, but something that stays with them for the rest of their life. Even today, I routinely turn to the tools Rubin taught me while we were working together. Rubin has an excellent knack for knowing exactly how to guide his clients through social anxiety and ensure that the social anxiety is healed PERMANENTLY, not just temporarily. I never imagined a life without social anxiety before I met Rubin, but today the version of me that is free from social anxiety is a completely different person. Rubin has guided me through my struggles with social anxiety through a level of compassion and presence that I have found to be very rare in other coaches offering similar services.
I consider myself very lucky that I found Rubin and got to work with him, and I would recommend anyone struggling with social anxiety to join him in a heartbeat!

Hi everyone!
I am a 40-year-old Civil Servant from England, UK. I have been experiencing anxiety for the last 20-25 years especially Social Anxiety and it had been having a negative effect on most aspects of my life including career, family/relationship, and engaging with the community. The main distressing physical symptom that I experienced was the throat tightening/constriction followed by an avalanche of negative thoughts and emotions and I was stuck in a vicious circle. I am a father to three children who look upto me, and I reached a point in my life where I needed help as the quality of my life was really suffering due to severe anxiety.
I came across Rubin Naidu after searching for throat tightening anxiety relief videos on YouTube. I could not believe there were others around the world who had experienced the exact same problem as me including Rubin himself. I gained hope by Rubin mentioning that we can be healed, and we do not have continue managing our symptoms. After taking his program I believe it’s one of the best decisions I made in my life.
During this course I have a developed an understanding of his framework and the techniques used for healing. I feel empowered, more confident, and have improved my self-awareness skills. I have become more compassionate towards myself and others too.
Some of the tangible results that I have achieved include voicing my concerns during work meetings and dealing with confrontational situations in a calmer manner and being able to think straight. The
This program also allows you develop self-leadership and gradually you can become your own therapist. I would highly recommend to others who are in a similar situation to myself to contact Rubin. If you are determined to overcome Social Anxiety and willing to put in the effort you will reap the rewards.
I am eternally grateful to Rubin who is a wonderful teacher/coach and he has a passion for helping people overcome Social Anxiety. Trigger Free Intensive is programme designed to heal anxiety from its root cause and worth every penny!

As a real estate agent, I’ve had to confront challenges beyond just closing deals—one of the biggest being social anxiety. At first, my approach was to push through and ignore the signals my body was sending me. I thought resilience meant suppression, but over time, I realized I was only silencing parts of myself that needed my attention and understanding.
Through exploring parts work and family systems, I began to see my struggles differently. Instead of battling the parts of me that felt overwhelmed or scared, I started asking, "What are these feelings trying to protect me from?" It wasn’t about erasing them but reframing the narrative. These parts weren’t my enemies—they were parts of me that needed compassion, patience, and a voice.
The real breakthrough came when I learned to separate myself from those parts. This detachment allowed me to re-learn compassion for myself, to engage in a dialogue with the parts of me that felt vulnerable. Rather than fighting within myself, I started working with myself. The battles quieted, and I began to find harmony in situations that used to leave me paralyzed.
For so long, I believed isolation was the solution—that staying away from people would protect me until I was “ready.” But I discovered that conscious exposure, coupled with regular check-ins with myself, was far more effective. Slowly, I reframed my perspective. I began to see people and relationships more clearly—the good and the bad became more defined. This clarity allowed me to adjust my boundaries and interactions in ways that truly worked for me.
Today, I see myself as a more balanced professional and person. This journey has not only improved how I navigate my career but also deepened my relationships with others and, most importantly, with myself. If you’re struggling with social anxiety, know that compassion for yourself and the parts of you that struggle can create a space for healing and growth. You're not alone—and you don't have to push through blindly. There’s a path forward, and it starts with understanding

I have struggled with social anxiety as long as I can remember. I have tried using cognitive behavioural therapy and exposure therapy, but did not get the results I hoped for. After watching Rubin’s YouTube videos, I decided to join the program.
Rubin has an in-depth knowledge of social anxiety that I have not encountered anywhere else. He is passionate and genuinely cares about making a difference for people suffering from this debilitating condition. Working with him in real time has been an awesome experience.
I have noticed several results. Prior to working with Rubin, when I made eye contact with strangers, I would immediately look away. After participating in Rubin’s group work, the tables turned, and other people would look away from me!
For a while, I had been wanting to volunteer, but had been avoiding finding a position. While working with Rubin I was able to apply for a position, in which I still actively participate. I was able to stand up to a family member who has always been triggering for me. I had never stood up to anyone like that in my life. Our relationship is much better as a result.
In my college classes, I was always fearful and quiet. I am now taking leadership roles in group projects. I was able to make a joke in front of the class that had everyone laughing.
Overall, I feel more comfortable in my own skin. I understand what motivates my behaviours and why certain people trigger me. If you are highly motivated and want to improve your life, this is the program for you.

Meeting Rubin and joining his program has been a huge moment for me in healing my social anxiety symptoms. I finally feel like I’ve met someone who TRULY understands and has experienced for himself what social anxiety is really like. Plus, he is incredibly compassionate and encouraging which helps me feel safe doing this kind of healing work with him.
While most social anxiety coaches/therapists focus on the exposure therapy and healing through the external, Rubin understands that healing the internal system is the most important thing to create self transformation!
I’m grateful to have found the program and for having the chance to do group coaching sessions with Rubin and while I am still at the beginning of my healing journey, I have become so much more self-aware and am much more knowledgeable about what causes me to get triggered and why. This helps me be a lot less self-critical and be patient and compassionate with myself as I do the inner work.
Cheers!

Working with Rubin has been a life-changing experience. I cannot thank him enough for the safe environment he provides. The community is encouraging, compassionate, and very supportive. I feel like a new person because of the peace and resolution I’ve found after healing deeply rooted trauma through working with Rubin and this program. My relationship with family is better now and I feel more present and powerful in other areas of my life such as work and school.

After decades of struggling with Social Anxiety, reaching out to Rubin has turned out to be one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've tried numerous therapists and programs over the years and none of them have had close to the effect working with Rubin has had on me. Rubin truly has a great understanding of the inner workings behind social anxiety and how to resolve it. I can't recommend joining Rubin's program enough to anyone who struggles with Social Anxiety and is looking for lasting change. The difference in how I feel now versus before I started working with Rubin is enormous. I'm way more comfortable in social situations and my overall attitude towards myself is far greater than it's been in a long long time.

Rubin's genuineness is immediately clear, as is his strong passion for helping others, rooted in his own early struggles with trauma and social anxiety. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the subject and teaches a powerful framework to build a healthier relationship with oneself.
He has clearly overcome his own social anxiety and lives more boldly and authentically in the world, setting a strong example of how one's character looks after healing.
Although I am not fully healed myself, I have made significant progress with Rubin's help. Avoidance and self-critical rumination have less power over me. I have gotten to know myself beyond simply the anxious persona, and my quality of life has improved as a result.
Community is a big part of the healing process, and Rubin has created a valuable space that promotes authenticity, vulnerability and connection. This helps me to stay plugged in and accountable on my healing journey.

I am very grateful for my experience with Rubin and Authenticity Academy. The community that he has created is truly special – it provides a safe, supportive space where we can grow, learn, and stay on track with my personal development and healing work. Besides the tools and practices now available to me, I have a whole community behind me to share my journey with.
Rubin intuitive insights bring the complicated world of trauma healing down to earth with practical next steps. I found Rubin very easy to connect with and he has helped me trouble shoot problems when I have been stuck. He brings creativity into everything he does, and encourages this creativity in myself which has helped me accelerate my healing.
Authenticity Academy challenges and supports me, helping me stay committed to my growth. I feel more aligned with my true self, and I owe so much of that to Rubin’s guidance and the community he’s fostered.
Thank you, Rubin!
