#01 La galette des rois

guó pò shān hé zài ，chéng chūn cǎo mù shēn 。
国破山河在，城春草木深。
gǎn shí huā jiàn lèi ，hèn bié niǎo jīng xīn 。
感时花溅泪，恨别鸟惊心。
fēng huǒ lián sān yuè ，jiā shū dǐ wàn jīn 。
烽火连三月，家书抵万金。
bái tóu sāo gèng duǎn ，hún yù bú shèng zān 。
白头搔更短，浑欲不胜簪。

EP 11. VOCABULARIO AVANZADO PARA VIAJES

It hurts when you know you’re good at your job — but in meetings or interviews, you sound unsure, slow, or small in English.

You try to explain your idea, but your voice drops, your sentence gets shorter, and your status leaks — people stop seeing you as senior.

That’s not bad English. That’s your old work-identity showing up when the pressure is high.

Internal rebranding helps you stop sounding like who you used to be —so you don’t lose respect the moment you start to speak. 

Speechless Leader. Stop sounding smaller than your expertise.

Internal Rebranding  - How To Stop Looking Poor In Communication?

OK, we talk about communication between different cultures, but did you know that emotion can be a determinant factor in distinguishing them? Some people are more affective, others rather neutral. And we bet you might have noticed that in your everyday interactions. But why?

Why people are afraid of taking interviews?

Here is a quote I found from a person - sharing their feelings about taking an interview...

I'm afraid of interviews and getting a job and having to interact with coworkers
I'm an adult but I feel like a baby. I don't have any social skills or any skills. Having to go to interviews and interact with coworkers sounds like a nightmare. I can't do this adult thing. I can't function in this --- world. I don't know what to do. I can't get help because it's too scary to speak about my problems with a stranger. I feel like I wasn't meant to be in this world. 

and this is a native speaker... certainly, the person might be starting out but my point was to illustrate to you that you are not alone...

In this podcast I share ways how you can overcome it - strategical approach you can follow to help you ace your interview.

And I offer 1-1 private coachinng/consulting classes, come and see me.

To Your Success,
