The 3-Second Shift: From Tension to Trust in a job inteview. 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.

Choisis entre « à faire » et « affaire » : ① Cet homme a eu à faire/affaire à la justice il y a cinq ans. ② Les élèves ont à faire/affaire des devoirs pour demain. ③ Ce mois-ci, j’ai à faire/affaire à des clients difficiles. ④ Elle n’a jamais eu à faire/affaire avec ce genre d’individu. ⑤ Il a encore à faire/affaire à manger pour ce soir. ⑥ Je n’ai rien à faire/affaire pendant les vacances. ⑦ Nous avons souvent eu à faire/affaire au responsable.

💡 You don’t need more words. You need less panic between them. Here's how we fixed that in 3 seconds. What if your problem isn’t your vocabulary? What if your English is fine — but your voice needs space? In this episode, I share a story about a senior product lead at Tencent. Every time she spoke English, she felt invisible. Her grammar was fine. What she lacked was presence. We didn’t focus on perfect answers. We focused on one simple shift — just 3 seconds — that helped her speak with calm, not stress. With self-trust, not fear. If you speak fluent English but still don’t feel like yourself in interviews, this is for you. 💬 DM me “VOICE” and I’ll send you a short voice note to try today. Let’s bring your real voice back.
