Episode 30：日本の方言

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.
