On Sunday, I took the TOEIC exam. I was a little nervous and ended up waking up earlier than usual. On my way to the test center, I listened to some TOEIC listening audio to get my ears warmed up. When I arrived, the place was filled with people who were also there to take the test. Everyone had such serious expressions on their faces. The listening section was faster than I expected, and there were a few moments when I felt panicked, but I managed to stay focused all the way through. The reading section was tough because of the time management. I spent too much time on the grammar questions, so I had to rush toward the end. Even so, I feel like I did my best. I read as carefully as I could and chose the answers that made the most sense to me. It wasn’t perfect, but I’m sure I gave it everything I had. After the test, all the tension drained from my body, and I suddenly felt really hungry. On my way home, I bought something sweet as a little reward for my hard work. I don’t know the result yet, but for now, I’m relieved that it’s finally over. I really hope my score goes up at least a little compared to last time.

In this episode, we explore one of the biggest mindset traps professionals fall into during interviews and high-stakes English conversations: the pressure to look impressive. You’ll hear the real breakthrough a client had during one of our sessions — a shift that transformed her communication, her confidence, and ultimately… her results. The moment she stopped trying to impress and started solving problems, everything changed. If you’ve ever felt your English collapse under pressure, or felt yourself performing instead of communicating, this episode will give you a new lens that can change the way you show up in every important conversation. Real session. Real shift. Real transformation. You can apply for your transformation on my profile now.

BREAKTHROUGH #1 — Stop Trying to Impress Them. Start Solving Problems. She came to our session carrying the mindset most high-performing professionals never question: “I hope they like me.” “I hope I sound good.” “I hope I don’t disappoint them.” Then one realization cut through everything. Every serious professional wants to enter a high-stakes conversation and feel like their presence lands. Not because they rehearsed lines. Not because they performed. But because their value is unmistakable without trying to prove it. Most walk into the room holding a silent burden: “Please see my worth.” And that single thought disconnects them from everything powerful inside. It's impossible to feel grounded when you're trying to be impressive! During our session, she had a clean, simple realization: “If I stop trying to impress them and start solving their problems everything changes.” Exactly. The body reorganizes. The mind clears. The voice stops performing and starts contributing. Authority comes back online. And suddenly, you are no longer trying to be chosen. You are leading the moment you are in. Trying to impress is the fastest way to shrink: It makes you tighten. It makes you oversell. It makes you lose connection to your experience. It makes your English collapse under pressure. And ironically - the harder you try to look impressive, the less powerful you appear. The next day she walked into her interview not to perform, but to understand what needed to be solved. She passed stage 2. Then stage 3. Then she received the offer. Negotiated +20%. And walked out with stock options. Same English. Same CV. Just a different identity finally showing up. If you’re tired of performing in English and ready to speak from the place your real value lives, apply. Every breakthrough shared here is drawn from real client work. No scripts. No theories. Real lives, real shifts.

Hello. Today I have a shift at Mister Donut, and I’m feeling a little nervous about it. Recently, I haven’t been scheduled as often as before, so I’m worried that I might have forgotten some of the small procedures or the pace of the work. Even though I’ve worked there for a long time, it’s surprising how quickly I lose the sense of routine when my shifts become less frequent. Still, I’m hoping that once I actually start working, my body will remember what to do, and I’ll be able to get through the shift without any major mistakes. Another thing on my mind is the group presentation coming up this Friday. We already finished writing the script, and everyone seems to be on the same page, but I still haven’t completed the handout. Since the presentation is a group project, I don’t want to be the one who slows everyone down, so I need to focus and finish it soon. It’s always a bit stressful to balance part-time work with school assignments, but I guess that’s part of student life. Lately, I’ve also been getting more interested in American hamburger chains. There are so many famous ones in the United States that we don’t have in Japan, and I often watch videos of people trying different burgers across the country. Someday, when I’ve saved enough money, I want to travel around the U.S. and visit as many chain restaurants as I can. It might sound like a funny dream, but for me, exploring food is a really exciting way to learn about a country’s culture.
