JOJO CHINESE

多+adjective：ask degree

I didn’t become confident first. I started — and confidence followed.

In this episode, I share the real story behind how my teaching method was born.

Not from certificates.
Not from lesson plans.
Not from “knowing what to do.”

At 25, I was asked to help adults communicate in English — and inside, I froze.
Not because my English was bad, but because I didn’t know how to be in the room.

What changed everything wasn’t learning more.
It was realizing what adults actually need when they speak under pressure.

This episode is for you if you:

freeze when it matters

overthink instead of speaking

doubt yourself before you start

It’s not about English.
It’s about what happens inside you when you open your mouth.

Listen if that sounds familiar.

你有“职场人设”吗？Do you have a “workplace persona”?

No matter the odds of success or the scale of the challenge, your actions can make a difference. It’s better to light a candle than curse the darkness. Every little thing counts. Doing something to make a positive change is always better than nothing!
