Examples of the what will be demonstrated or what exercises will be practiced would go a long way to help me understand what you are aiming for.
Examples of "Fermi calculations; applying Bayes' theorem and cognitive biases to daily life" and "reading and using body language; developing a fashion sense; and developing social courage and success" would give me a better idea of how much I could apply to my life or weather you are teaching lessons that I already learned. Weather it would be more valuable for me to not to apply and ensure that someone else got a slot.
or whether you are teaching lessons that I already learned. Whether it would be more valuable for me to not to apply
Noted, and thank you. I was/am aware of the difference, but obviously was not paying enough attention to catch my mistake this time.
