Who is Yasser Al-Hozimey?
Yasser Al-Hozimey is a Saudi lecturer and certified trainer with over two decades of experience in self-development, human relations, and communication skills. He’s the host of the Arabic podcast Tadabbar and entered the Guinness World Records for the most-watched podcast episode globally, a Finjan podcast appearance that turned him into a household name across the Gulf. He’s also the author of The Strong Personality (الشخصية القوية), a widely read guide to self-confidence, self-acceptance, and identity.
His work tends to blend modern psychology with values-led, introspective frameworks, which is precisely the lens this Doha talk is expected to take.
What to expect from the Self-Mastery talk
The talk centres on a simple but loaded idea: when you slow down enough to look at yourself honestly, clarity follows, and clarity is what makes growth, success, and fulfilment possible. Expect themes around self-awareness, building a stable inner identity, communication, and the everyday habits that compound into long-term change. If you’ve followed his Tadabbar episodes, you’ll recognise the territory.
The event is fully booked: here’s what to do
Education City lists the event as fully booked, but a few options remain for anyone who missed registration:
- Check back closer to the date. Cancellations on the Education City portal sometimes free up spots.
- Follow Education City and Qatar Foundation on social media. Waitlist openings or livestream announcements are usually shared there first.
- Watch for a recording. Many Education City Speaker Series talks are recorded and shared afterwards.
- Explore the wider Series. The #ECSpeakerSeries hosts ongoing sessions with experts across disciplines, worth bookmarking if this format is your thing.
Why this talk matters for Doha
Doha’s appetite for high-quality public lectures has grown sharply over the past few years, and the Education City Speaker Series has become one of the most reliable platforms for it. Bringing in a speaker of Al-Hozimey’s regional pull, particularly for a free, public-facing talk, signals how seriously Qatar Foundation is investing in lifelong-learning content for residents and expats alike.
For anyone living in Doha and thinking seriously about personal growth, this is the kind of evening that’s worth showing up for.
