Vous connaissez peut-être BlablaCar, le service de covoiturage où on partage le trajet avec d'autres personnes. Maintenant il y a Blabla caisse. Qu'est-ce que c'est? C'est une caisse de supermarché où les clients peuvent prendre leur temps et discuter avec la caissière. C'est tout le contraire des caisses rapides où on scanne nous-mêmes nos achats. Le temps qu'il fait, votre nouvelle recette, des nouvelles de vos enfants, des blagues, vous pouvez discuter de tout avec la caissière comme si vous étiez au marché et discutiez avec votre marchand préféré. Ça rend le supermarché plus humain, n'est-ce pas?

Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote: Chapter 1

In Episode 71, we explore the emotional undercurrents that often go unnoticed but heavily impact our ability to learn a language — insecurity, guilt, unworthiness, tension, and those jittery feelings that creep in when we're learning something difficult.

I gently walk you through the importance of first acknowledging, accepting, and validating your emotions. Why is this important? Because what we resist emotionally tends to persist. And when left unexamined, these emotions become silent saboteurs to your learning journey.

Supported by research in neuroscience and psychology, I explain how emotional tension activates the brain’s stress response, impairing memory and disrupting attention. But when we recognize these emotions as valid signals — not flaws — we begin the process of healing and learning at the same time.

I share tools rooted in cognitive reappraisal (Brooks, 2014) and self-compassion science, encouraging you to embrace your learning pace, your imperfections, and your worthiness to grow. We talk about how language learning isn’t just about fluency — it’s about coming home to yourself.

This episode is a reminder that you are allowed to move slowly, to feel deeply, and still make meaningful progress. In the presence of your most difficult emotions, you are still a learner with purpose — and that is a beautiful thing.

Until next time, I wish you inspired, grounded, and gentle learning. 🌱
