“Imagine — The Fluent You”

This isn’t a lesson. It’s a moment with yourself.
In this episode, I’ll guide you to see and feel the fluent version of you — the one who speaks English calmly, confidently, and naturally.

You’ll close your eyes, breathe, and imagine what it’s like to speak freely — without fear, without pressure.
To sound clear, grounded, attractive, fully yourself.

It’s not about learning new words.
It’s about becoming the kind of person who speaks fluently — from the inside out.

Enjoy this guided meditation, relax and allow the "English version of You" to shine bright!

Self-introduction  自我介绍

聊中西文化，也聊很多东西！
第九期，我们来聊一聊性格，你是一个内向还是外向的人呢？

聊聊东西 - Talk to Me in Chinese

009. 我是一个内向的人， 所以？I’m introverted, so... - ttmiChinese

LAYLA: Thanks for meeting with me during your lunch hour. I 
appreciate it.
MONICA: No problem. I’m happy to help. What’s going on?
LAYLA: Oh you know, the usual. Should I take this new job? Or do I 
stick with my current one?
MONICA: Well, I think it’s time for a change, don’t you? They pay you late 
and you are unhappy.
LAYLA: Do you really think so?
MONICA: I know so. And I’ve been listening to you complain for over a 
year now. Trust me. Take the job. What do you have to lose?



LANGUAGE NOTES
• In formal conversation, giving advice is often suggested through modals: ought to/ 
should / could / If I were you. In informal conversations people tend to use words such 
as I think that/ I feel that/ in my opinion.
• Listen for the emphasis on I know so and Trust me. These common phrases can be 
used to convey both positive and negative emotions. “I know so” conveys a deep belief 
or certainty. “To know” shows more certainty than “to think.”
• Notice the use of command forms: Take the job. /Trust me./ Go for it! The command 
form can be used to gently persuade someone

Day 30 (final) : Giving advice

Series: The Woman Behind the Words

Many women speak clearly in their own language —
but the moment English enters the room, something inside tightens.

Thoughts speed up.
The body contracts.
The voice becomes careful instead of alive.

This episode explores why this happens even to brilliant, experienced women —
and why the collapse is not about grammar, ability, or vocabulary.

It’s about the internal script that gets activated under pressure:
the fear of being judged,
the urge to sound “perfect,”
the pressure to perform instead of express.

You’ll hear why the voice loses presence in real moments,
what actually drives this reaction,
and how awareness alone begins to restore stability, clarity, and self-trust.

A gentle reflection inside the episode:

“Where do you abandon yourself the moment pressure rises —
and what would it feel like to stay with yourself instead?”

🌿 Mini-Exercise: “Reuniting the Two Voices”

Duration: 2 minutes — soft, no pressure

1. Close your eyes for one breath.
Notice how your body shifts when you think about speaking English.
Don’t fix. Just observe.

2. Ask yourself quietly:

“Who shows up when I speak English — the one who expresses, or the one who tries to survive?”

Let the answer arrive on its own.
Your nervous system will show you the truth faster than your mind.

3. Place one hand on your chest and whisper:

“Both versions of me are allowed to be here.”

This softens the internal split.

4. Now complete this sentence in your mind:

“When I speak English, the part of me that takes over is the part that wants to…”

(…be perfect, avoid judgment, stay safe, not bother anyone, sound smart — whatever is true for you.)

5. One final breath:
Let your shoulders drop 1%.
That 1% is where your real voice begins to return.

Letter R

Hace unas semanas, en un audio-artículo de este blog escribí y hablé de la pérdida de fonemas conforme las lenguas se iban expandiendo por este planeta, obviamente al ritmo de la expansión humana. ¿Sí? Pues hoy en día, que no queda nada por ser descubierto por nuestros ojos y todo el mundo cabe en un dispositivo electrónico con conexión a Internet, el proceso de “simplificación” sigue su curso.
