The 3-Second Shift: From Tension to Trust

What if clarity had nothing to do with vocabulary?
What if your English didn’t need fixing — your voice just needed space?

In this episode, I share a story about one of my clients — a senior product lead at Tencent — who felt like she disappeared every time she had to speak in English.

She wasn’t struggling with grammar.
She was struggling with presence.

We didn’t work on performance.
We worked on something simpler — and far more powerful:
A 3-second shift that helped her speak from calm, not tension. From self-trust, not fear.

If you’re a global professional who sounds fluent but doesn’t feel fully you in English — this episode is for you.

DM me “VOICE” if it resonates. I’ll send you a short voice note you can use today.

Let’s bring your real voice back.

Understanding the “Laziness Factor”
When you’re feeling lazy about learning a language, it usually means you’re lacking motivation or genuine interest. Although research shows that motivation is a critical driver of engagement in learning, you have to be aware that not all motivation is the same. This is because there’s intrinsic motivation (which is interest that comes from inside you) and extrinsic motivation (which are rewards and incentives that come from outside you). To keep moving forward, it helps to know which type of motivation works best for you.

To Overcome Your Laziness, You Have To Find A Personal Connection With The Language You Are Learning.
If you’re struggling with motivation, tapping into internal interest can help. Studies show that people are more likely to engage in activities they find personally meaningful. Here are some ways to cultivate this type of interest when the thought of language learning makes you lazier by the second.

Jaksaa, jaksaa vai jaksaako? Tässä viidennessä jaksossa pureudun henkilökohtaisempaan aiheeseen miettiessäni jaksamista uuden kielen opiskelutaipaleella. Kieltä opiskeltaessa on hyvä pitää taukoja ja antaa aivojen levätä. Miten itse jaksoin opiskella venäjää ja miten kieliopintoni Venäjällä meni? Kerron myös omista toimittajakokemuksistani ulkosuomalaisessa sanomalehdessä ja miltä tuntui työskennellä venäjänkielisessä ympäristössä.

Suomea for you
