Feeling like a fraud in your language learning journey? You're not alone. 🥲

The constant pressure to be perfect, the fear of being "found out," the voice that says "you're not a real learner"... that's imposter syndrome. And it's holding you back from the joy of learning.

But what if you could make friends with that voice instead of fighting it?

In Episode 99 of 111 Tips for Learning a Language, we explore how Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help you:
✨ Accept anxious thoughts without being controlled by them
✨ Ground yourself in the present moment
✨ Reconnect with your real "why" for learning
✨ Take small, courageous steps forward—even when you feel insecure

This isn't about positive thinking. It's about powerful, value-driven doing.

Your journey to fluent, confident, and joyful learning doesn't start with more grammar. It starts with more self-compassion.
