• S6E30: These little steps really are paving the way
    Jun 14 2024

    So often, we hear stories about how small changes and consistency lead to big changes, often really fast. And that can lead us to question ourselves and our to-do lists and wonder why we aren't getting our rapid transformation too. So today, in the 300th episode of the Language Confidence Project, I wanted to come in and remind you that YES, these small, daily tasks are exactly the steps that pave the way to our goal.

    If you're really worried that things are really taking too long to pay off, check out this YouTube episode, or S2E2 of The Language Confidence Project.

  • S6E28: What secret rules are creeping into your studies?
    Jun 12 2024

    We all have those little rules that we keep: the TV volume should always be an even number or an increment of five, sentences should never accidentally rhyme... but what happens when these creep into our studies? Today, I invite you to ask yourself, how many of these do you have, and are any of them actually getting in the way?
